Needs serious help

Takes a while to load and then you typically have to re-load because there’s been some sort of application update. It’s really nice to have your classes in a mobile app to respond to discussion posts and to look at assignment information and schedules. I think there must be a much smoother way to provide this in an iOS app and hopefully Devry will get it together soon.

Worst app to date

This app has given me nothing but issues. You open it up, finally get to the page you want, 7 clicks in- and it says application reloaded and brings you all the way to the main screen. Discussion boards are a nightmare. Cannot move cursor, fix grammar/spelling, highlight text; once the keyboard is down, it’s almost impossible to bring back up. Then, if you get all of this correct, then maybe you’ll be lucky if the discussion actually posts or the page becomes inactive and no longer interactive. Such a pain.

Freezes up, and won’t allow edits

This app freezes up on me at the main screen very often. If by a remote chance you are able to get to the Dashboard, you cannot select a class. If I do get to select a class and try to enter text on a discussion, it won’t allow you to make an entry into the blank field where you’re supposed to write. Also, you can’t edit existing text you entered previously.

Solution... get a laptop. Elmer Fudd can build a better app!

Signing In

I’m currently a student at Devry. I rely on the app to keep up with my class and the discussions while away from my computer. However, it’s basically impossible to do this, because I can only sign in every once in a while. When I go to type in my information on the sign-in page, I can’t even get to the password before my keyboard disappears. When I tap on the password box, the app often closes or just won’t open the keyboard to take the password. This is extremely frustrating. If I could give it less than one star, I would.

Pretty Good..

I was excited to even have an app to do homework on. You can get to most of what you need pretty quickly. The main problem that I have is that it offers Split Mode for the iPad Pro, but the page doesn't adjust to the different sizes. If you're trying to work with a document at the same time, then half of your Devry app is going to get cut off..why add it halfway?

Great DeVry app, but a few things.

This app is great and it's extremely convenient. One think I would like to suggest is to be able and edit discussion posts and even write one. I honestly don't like how I can view it and now be able to post a discussion. Unless you can already and I am unable to. Other than that this app is great.

Very easy to use

Previously, there were a few things I didn't like about this app, but a recent update solved most of these issues. It is so convenient to be able to do my homework anywhere I go. The interface is user-friendly and straightforward.

One feature that I'd like to see is the ability to do quizzes and possibly even exams through the app. Sometimes when I'm out of town, I don't have convenient access to a desktop.

Excellent School App

It was a long time coming to get this far. The first version was glitchy and horrible but now DeVry has definitely improved this application so much that's it has become an indispensable app for us students. Great work.

Love!

I actually rate this app 4.5. At first I was hesitant to download and use but since I'm always on the go I decided to try it out. I LOVE this app. It's very useful and very easy to navigate through. Posts are very easy to read and, most importantly, it doesn't crash on me. One feature I do wish it had was to keep me logged in the app. The first reviewer mentioned it used to have that feature - bring it back please (that's the reason of 0.5 off, by the way)! Anywho, I 100% recommend this app to students who are always on the go, or simply just want the ease of using their phones instead of their laptops for posts and such.

Needs improvement.

First off when I go click on one of my classes it constantly goes to another even if I restart the app it still does the same thing. I have to completely log out end the app and log in again. Also it would be nice to add a shortcut to check the school email instead of constantly going to my browser and logging in through tbsp then click on my email to check it.
