### 1/5 — Garbage

*2022-03-07, version iOS App 2.0.1*

It will not connect to my schools blackboard website the app refuses to connect. The current app that I have works just fine. I logged into that app the current app, and was told I should download the newest latest app. And of course the newest latest app is garbage and doesn’t work. Thanks for wasting my time. At a previous institution I was utilizing canvas as their software. It was phenomenally better than this garbage.

### 1/5 — Disgusting

*2019-08-21, version iOS App 2.0.1*

Waste of an app. The makers and creators of this app, Michael Chasen, Daniel Cane, Matthew Pittinsky, Stephen Gilfus should be ashamed of theirselves. They don’t understand that their app, which is suppose to assist students and teachers Alike, are hurting from using this trash example of an app? Utterly disgusting. Doesn’t help the students learn anything. And doesn’t help new teachers with how they are suppose to teach. Who writes these absurd homework topics? Have they even went to school theirselves?? Disgusting. You don’t deserve a single dime.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for Fairfax County, VA

*2018-09-06, version 1.0*

This simply doesn’t work at all. Wast of time.

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2018-08-20, version 1.0*

The app is not for college/graduate classes but k-12. The icons need to be switched. As is it is extremely misleading.

### 1/5 — If zero stars were possible this would take the cake!!!!

*2018-06-19, version 1.0*

Horrible. Can’t get onto the app sue the url?  How in the hell do access it. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Change the initial description of this app!

*2018-06-06, version 1.0*

You would not have so many frustrated reviewers (all college level Blackboard users) if you explained in the initial app description that this app is for your K-12 product. Also, the app logo for this product is too similar to the former Bb Learn app logo — it tricked me, for sure. And the stupid cartoon pencil logo seems too juvenile for the college level B.B. Learn app. They should be reversed; it would make more intuitive sense and cause less confusion. Did someone not think that through?

### 1/5 — One star is too high a rating

*2018-04-15, version 1.0*

As usual with anything created and maintained by Blackboard, this app is trash. It doesn't work. Do not waste your time downloading it.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2018-04-09, version 1.0*

Don’t waste your time this doesn’t even let you log on.  Waste of space and time.

### 1/5 — Don’t even try

*2018-03-28, version 1.0*

Don’t try it. Junk

### 1/5 — More worthless Blackboard junk

*2018-02-04, version 1.0*

This app and Instructor have no value other than if you wish to waste space on your iPad. As an instructor, I can’t log in to this one (moodle account, seriously?) and when I get into Instructor, there is no way to grade student submissions. To top it off, due to their dependence on Box, it is much harder to grade submissions in Blackboard online in Safari, Firefox, etc. Drawing tools are gone, text tool is gone, piece of garbage. If you are considering Blackboard for your school, forget it, get Canvas instead. I use it at another school and it actually works and the interface makes sense!

**Developer response:** Hi there,

We're sorry to hear that your experience wasn't satisfactory. Just to clarify, this mobile app is specifically designed for our K-12 product: Blackboard Classroom (a K12-specific product based on a custom version of Moodle). If you're a Blackboard Learn user, the app you might be looking for is this one:

Thanks
