What a downgrade

In earlier versions you could at least search for a building on maps, now every time I search something on the map settings I get 'no match found' even for the simplest of buildings. I feel sorry for the freshman using this app. You will not find what you need.

Not dependable

If you want to check D2L/Uaccess use the browser. If you want a map use google maps. If you want the CatTran, get a pamphlet. Although the app has it all in one, it won't work when you need it. It crashed 3/5 times when you try to open it before I works, only to crash if you try tracking the CatTran. The app looks nice in the end, but needs work.

New Update = Maps don't work!!!!

Used to use it every day to find my way around campus. Since the new update, you can't walk and use the map at the same time, also you can't zoom in or out on the map, which makes it point less. Can't ever find anything any more. They need to fix this!!

So helpful!

Perfect searchable map, track the cattran, access to d2l and uaccess, any current or future student needs this.

Missing sports TV info

Last year the time, date, and television station where the games could be viewed was always available. What happened to this year?

Vital app for Wildcats

Very helpful and convenient app for the campus. The UI is also great. A must have for anyone attending or even visiting U of A.

Great app but a few minor flaws

Pros:
-maps feature is a godsend when trying to find a new building (especially the transit feature)
-can add money to my meal plan straight from my phone
-can reserve a study room right from my phone
-events allows me to be reminded of things I want to go to
-I love having a mobile version of uacess with just the important stuff
-phonebook allows me to look up all my profs emails and phone numbers when I misplace my syllabus

Cons
-maps does not show bike routes or parking(non garage)
-the courses feature can sometimes be tedious to navigate and does not allow you to add/drop/swap classes or place anything in your shopping cart
-not all the feature's upper left hand buttons say "home" some say "back" which is annoying if only trying to go back one page (button takes you to the home screen)
-you can not put CATCASH on your id through the app which is bothersome **biggest pet peeve**
-places and lapse should be combined for greatest efficacy

No landscape view

As noted, can only be viewed in portrait mode, making it extremely difficult to use if you have an iPad primarily used in landscape mode (like, if you have a keyboard case and use your iPad as a replacement for a laptop).

Content is otherwise fine, and pretty comprehensive. When they make it orient properly, I'll revise my rating.

Extremely Helpful!

Great App! Perfect for any UA student. Needs to have the "Add to Contacts" option fixed under the Phonebook, because app keeps crashing.

Awesome!

I'm a student of U of A. I think this app is essential to U of A's students and faculties. It's really convenient. It contains whole information like classes, housing, maps, car card.....
I can recommend it strongly!
