### 4/5 — Functional and effective

*2020-05-20, version 2020.04.0600*

This app has all of the features one can find on a platform except one thing... you cannot edit comments! Would be nice to be able to edit a comment once posted instead of deleting it and retyping all over again.

### 5/5 — Great way to stay connected

*2020-05-06, version 2020.03.0220*

Awesome app to stay connected for distant learning

### 4/5 — au students app

*2020-04-30, version 2020.03.0220*

It is a great way to connect with my fellow students, help each other and discover new information.

### 4/5 — Overall a great app

*2018-03-20, version 8.0007*

I use this almost daily and love it!! I wish that the chat board had some options for sorting or that when someone commented on a post you were following it would bump or flag it somehow.  Other than that, it works great!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2017-08-21, version 7.76*

Excellent app

### 5/5 — Great!

*2017-06-30, version 7.60*

### 1/5 — Full of Libtards

*2020-04-27, version 2020.03.0220*

I hate this app. They control everything like communist China

### 1/5 — Still as opaque as ever

*2019-04-22, version 2018.3.022*

I thought they’d make some improvements since last I tried to use this thing. I was wrong. There are no instructions. I tried to add the classes I’m taking and the program would have none of it. I’m a distance learner, I don’t have a “timetable”.

As to the bulletin board, it seems that it is still the hodge podge and every message as it’s written with no way to filter things. (Or maybe there is, but note, no instructions.)

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2017-04-24, version 7.49*

You should be able to access your courses and assignment information on this app.  Check out Canvas, Canvas is great for schools, this is horrible and pointless if you're off campus!

### 1/5 — Adding courses

*2016-06-06, version 6.99*

Beautiful interface design; I can see this app being a great resources. Unfortunately, every time I go to add a course the app crashes. Until it functions properly, I'll have to give it 1/5.

### 1/5 — Screen issues

*2015-09-10, version 6.55*

It will not let me sign in as I cannot keep to the top of the page. I can scroll to where my email address is to be typed in, but I cannot not physically type it as the screen jumps down to the bottom of the page. So right now, this is useless to me. Not sure if this is an iPhone issue or an app issue.

### 2/5 — Always logs out

*2018-09-02, version 2018.2.042*

The design layout is good as well as the easy access. However every time you go back on it will boot the user out and you need to log in again. Overall good just a couple of bugs.

### 3/5 — Great when it works!

*2021-09-09, version 2021.04.1310*

… however. So often, when I search something up in the search bar, when I click on one of the results it doesn’t actually take me to the results but instead rakes me to the recent feed.
Very annoying when I’m trying to find information on a final or something, but can’t actually view the posts related to it.

### 3/5 — Please Link to Student ID

*2016-01-09, version 6.81*

It's okay, but could be improved by linking to the student ID and giving access to in-progress courses and programs.

### 3/5 — Needs Work

*2016-01-07, version 6.81*

This is a great app to connect students however, it needs some work. No notifications to threads you have been commenting on, posts are shown in general forum as well as groups which gets confusing, very unclear how to add classes, etc. The idea is great and hopefully it will improve over time.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2023-06-05, version 2023.04.2400*

The app is definitely satisfactory.

### 5/5 — This is a definite asset for any AU student

*2023-08-15, version 2023.07.1700*

I love this app! It organizes everything in one place! All the AU resources and supports, the updates, news and info, and even MyAUportal is at your fingertips. I’m really enjoying how efficient it is to keep me in the loop, and how easy it makes finding any information I may need. The course peer reviews are an added bonus!

Provides easy access within students community, and organizing your schedule!!
