App won’t ooen

I have just downloaded this app for the first time and it will open but won’t let me go past the welcome screen so I can’t login or do anything

Everytime I try to log in it says I need access granted by my administrator

The old apps better

Does not even update my time table properly wish I didn’t uninstall the old version

Response from developer

Hi lidxz, thank you for your feedback. Your timetable for Trimester 1 should have appeared for you on the app from 27 August. Please check back and see if your timetable is now loaded. If you still have problems, please contact timetabling@aru.ac.uk

New App removes easy way to check emails

In the former app, you could log in and access your emails through the app itself.

This new one redirects you to whatever browser you use. Problem with this means I have to then log out of my main personal email address to log in and check my uni emails (they both use outlook).

Problem with doing this it then logs me out of any linked outlook accounts I use on my phone/browser and then I find myself having to log back into my person email.

Basically it’s a huge annoyance now having to switch between the two email accounts, when before I didn’t have to faff about.
