And the gradual pathways made for wheelchair zigzag up which takes even more time to get from one class to another. I truly hope they can get this finished soon! ### 4/5 — Maybe I’m missing something *2024-08-05* Maybe I’m missing something but I wish I could receive notifications of Beach social and athletic events. I missed the televised CSUlB men’s volleyball. ### 4/5 — CSULB Apps *2023-08-17, version 2023.06.0500* Some hiccups here and there, but overall a smooth UI experience. ### 4/5 — Convenient *2023-06-25, version 2023.06.0500* Very easy to use ### 4/5 — GoBeach! *2022-09-10* I love my classes. I like my peers and my teachers. I’m excited to achieve my goals. The only reason I put 4, not 5, is because it’s really expensive, especially parking, and especially because it’s so hard to find a spot most of the time. ### 5/5 — Functional app *2022-08-24* Works well enough. ### 5/5 — CSULB experience *2022-08-24* The app is very simple and easy to understand! They have any info you need to get through your day. ### 5/5 — Greg app!!! *2022-07-14, version 2022.05.3000* It’s very helpful for new students!!! ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-05-17, version 2022.04.1800* Nice app ### 5/5 — Dream school *2022-02-24* Honestly the campus is amazing. A lot of different resources, even I’ll say the best selection on foods. It’s peaceful in the morning . Afternoon is always hyped up. Overall enjoy the campus haven’t had a problem ### 4/5 — App Review *2022-02-15, version 2021.11.2300* App gets me by I guess. ### 4/5 — Map *2022-02-10* It would be five stars but the gps on map is a bit slow for my liking.. ### 5/5 — Easy and informative :) *2022-02-08* The application is considerably resourceful especially once you pin your favorite items to reach ! ### 5/5 — Best *2022-02-07, version 2021.11.2300* Love my school ### 5/5 — School *2022-01-01, version 2021.11.2300* Easy navigating the app. ### 5/5 — I love CSULB—- Gerontology Rocks!!! *2021-12-09, version 2021.11.2300* I love my program!!! ### 5/5 — Decent app *2021-11-30, version 2021.10.2600* All things works good. ### 5/5 — very helpful *2021-08-28, version 2021.05.1700* I like this app it’s really help when navigating CSULB ### 5/5 — Best School *2021-08-13, version 2021.05.1700* Has always been there to ensure my success ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — CSULB app *2022-02-12, version 2021.11.2300* so easy to use ### 1/5 — Redundant *2020-09-12, version 2020.06.0110* The new version is aesthetically pleasing but what’s the point of the app if we can’t even view our course material? Absolutely useless. The students are better off using a mobile browser than this app now. ### 1/5 — New update *2020-06-22, version 2020.05.0400* New update doesn’t show the full content of the course. Very annoying. ### 1/5 — Irritating *2019-12-07, version 5.2.49* Made me pay 6 dollars without even letting me know there was a co-payment. I can’t even log into my student portal... ### 1/5 — Seriously?! *2019-11-17, version 5.2.49* Absolutely love that feature where it logs you out as soon as you log in. Totally doesn’t make me wanna go off on a rant ### 1/5 — Who approved this app? *2018-11-05* Why do most download the app? For BeachBoard. All it does is just use an in browser feature to open BeachBoard. The entire app and its resources are all just a tab you touch that’ll open the in app browser. If I wanted to use a browser to access the CSULB website I would off my stupid safari app. Also, BeachBoard always logs be out. I hate this app. BeachBoard needs its own Native app! **Developer response:** Hello, Sorry, you are experiencing this issue. Please contact help@dublabs.com so we may assist you. Thank you, DubLabs ### 1/5 — So Useless *2018-10-17* I just want an app that can make checking beachboard easier. No one uses the app because it's easier to just google beachboard then go from there. So confusing navigating to beachboard and then when you finally get there it barely even works and I'm not even sure it lets you stay logged in **Developer response:** Hello, Sorry, you are experiencing this issue. Please contact help@dublabs.com so we may assist you. Thank you, DubLabs ### 1/5 — Nothing Loads *2018-04-01, version 5.2.49* Doesn’t matter what tab I tap on... nothing loads whatsoever making the app frustrating and completely useless. ### 1/5 — App still a mess makes you log in twice *2018-01-02* Terrible bloated app with limited function. Too much stuff in this app average user could not give a hoot about, sports, ASI, beach mag, just make this thing work right for Beachboard classroom. After lastest update you have to log in to app, then login in again to access BeachBoard. What developer makes UI such a mess? This one. Hire a new developer CSULB. I bet some students could this app better. Hire them. **Developer response:** Hello, Sorry you are experiencing this issue. Please contact help@dublabs.com so we may assist you. Thank you, DubLabs ### 1/5 — Please *2017-11-05, version 4.3.99* Long Beach, please hire new developers to build your app. Thanks ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sports *2025-08-11, version 2024.08.0500* Easy to work ### 5/5 — Future Student 2025 *2025-03-27* Very Cool site .
