App has many problems

This app always shows that it is “loading” but doesn’t always actually load, very annoying & inconvenient.

Annoying

It will now not let me sign into my email and it was always annoying how you had to sign in every time. Make so you don’t have to do that.

It works

The app works. I wish there was faceId integration to make it easier to sign in. Or maybe having the option to save the login info

Unable to access self service

Due to the glitch in FAU ID Authentication, it’s impossible to log in. (There is no way to enter the SMS codes.)

Crashes iphone6 plus

This app was great when it worked! Now it will not open at all.

Works 👌🏽

Does what it should if you want to check the basic stuff: Financial Aid, Email, Registration status, etc.

Not too bad. Would be better if more things were naturally integrated into the app and it feels a little clunky, but it beats going on to web all the time.

App just doesn’t work

I’ve uninstalled the app, closed the app, tried everything with it and it just does not work at all. It worked perfectly until FAU changed webpages and now this app is useless. Can’t check anything since app is broken.

Doesn’t work anymore

They updated the app and nothing works anymore, very inconvenient. Says ‘persona is disabled’ almost all the time.

Good job...

You broke the app. Major fail.

Update: I will admit I made a harsh call when I decided to submit my first review. It was partially justified, as the app was completely unresponsive at the time. However, I have since received feedback from the app developer, telling me about a simple fix. It seems a little redundant that some tinkering with the settings is required for proper function, but I will take back my immature comment and give the app the praise it deserves. Well done.
