Not getting notifications

I do not get notifications when polls and assignments open or close so I miss a lot of points because my professor does not announce when he opens them

Best option

I think Campusknot was honestly the best option for class interaction. It has a great UI that allows for setting time limits and word count limits. It works great when used in tandem with canvas.

Macro class

CampusKnot is easy to use and convenient.
 I have enjoyed being able to see everyone’s answers throughout the semester.

Awesome application.

It’s really good application for connect with class and make things easier.

This app stinks

Campusknot is the most useless app in the history of apps. I had to get this l for my microeconomics class and it’s a waste of $20.

Unsubscribing

It is intentionally difficult to unsubscribe from this service. There are no pages in the app on how to do it and no way to do it in the app. You can’t even unsubscribe from a phone on the web browser. You have to do it on a desktop. I found this after realizing I had been charged for this for not just four semesters unnecessarily, but two winter terms as well. The app is bad and they seem intent on keeping people subscribed to make money instead of making a useful education app.

Honestly Campus knot made this class more engaging! I've taken the same instructor for two semesters in a row and this has been by far the most fun one. I think the competition based polls to earn rewards was my favorite part of class.

Wish I never had to get this app

I went back to delete the app and profile just a day ago, and was charged for an additional semester. I never approved of any purchase and had accessed the app on my phone.

most confusing and inconvenient app

Have been trying to cancel my subscription for a long time and it could not be a more difficult experience, I do not recommend.

Crash

I have a singular assignment that I need to work on and I was hoping to use the app. However, given that it crashes literally every time I open the comments, I would say it won’t work. Very poor functioning app.

Waste of Money

I have absolutely no idea why there is a mobile version of this app. I’m paying for nothing .. every time I click on the app within ten seconds I’m kicked out of it. I’ve even tried logging in on a friends phone and the same thing. I contacted the help service which only told me to delete and download again which I’d already tried several times but I have it another shot. It still didn’t help and the help service stop responding. I’ve messaged three times since and still no response. What’s the purpose of an app especially one you pay for if it doesn’t even work and the help service ignores you.

A serious waste of money

This app is not worth the monthly subscription fee. It isn’t user friendly and half of the time the basic functions don’t work. Its also really annoying that it logs you out all of the time yet it doesn’t let you log in on the app. If it wasn’t part of my grade I wouldn’t use it.

i hate this app

i think it’s ridiculous that i have to pay $12 to show my attendance for class when there are scanners in the room of my class. most of the time i can’t even get the app open to get extra credit points so i’m missing out on points all because of this stupid app. it shouldn’t be allowed to make us use this app.

Used it for my business class. As an engineering major, this app made this class a lot more enjoyable. I have used other apps in class before and overall campus knot did was it was supposed to do. Very affordable and straightforward.

I don’t even understand the purpose of the app at this point

The app crashes everytime you press certain documents, teachers can’t access links half of the time because they are literally enable to click it, and on top of that the assignments don’t even show up. You’d think with all these glitches you’ll be able at least use the website version but NO You have to use the app. I’m failing Spanish because everytime I even press the document it crashes. Fix your app so I can fix my life.

Great App!

Really enjoyed the apps simplicity and how easy it was to operate. A few technical issues, but company’s tech team were all super helpful & friendly! Definitely would recommend after being useful for my psychology class and will be using again!

I hate this app

It’s not user friendly and our school made us get this it continues to notify you even if you already seen it and most of our assignments we can never click on them

Waste of money

My school made me buy this for a class when literally any other free software would work fine, there is no reason to ever purchase this service.
