### 4/5 — Very useful!

*2014-08-03, version 4.1.1*

I use the directory and maps all the time. I often meet with people all over campus and find myself in unfamiliar places and in a hurry.  The maps are a lifesaver. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Okay

*2013-03-06, version 3.3*

This app is okay...the only problem is its not an app that has the stuff going on now...it updates about every 12 hours

### 3/5 — Needs iPhone 5 support and UI refresh

*2012-10-29*

UI is showing its age though it's still definitely functional. New icon seems like a step back in terms of icon design (it's just the stylized Duke name, and not in a good looking way). In addition if you push out an update this far past the iPhone 5 announcement it'd be nice to see 4-inch screen support.

### 3/5 — I can't zoom in after last update :(

*2012-09-15, version 3.0*

Great app ! But I can't zoom in any more via the campus map :( thanks !

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2012-06-09, version 2.3.1*

The only feature I wish it had was easy access to my duke webmail account and ACES information. Really good as a school app.

### 4/5 — Nice resource...but it is time to make it a Universal App

*2011-02-17*

Nice app.  But, with millions of iPads being sold and used it's time a University of Duke's stature set a new standard for University Apps and made this app Universal or created a Made for iPad version of this app.

Oh, and BTW, I'm all for fan loyalty to their University of choice, but isn't there somewhere else for folks to display their love and hate of universities besides these apps?  It is totally a waste of time to have to sift through "ratings" of University Apps trying to find those that actually comment on the quality of the app.

Last, what's up with "This is gay" and "That is gay" when referring to an app or a school?  I'd say that such comments are moronic, but that would be a too kind.  I don't think I'm the only one who feels this way and I would like to see more folks stand up and speak out against people who think it's cool to write apps that disrespect others.

Where is the advantage in hurting folks?  I don't get it.

### 4/5 — Easy to use!

*2010-04-03, version 0*

A great app with lots of good information but really needs blackboard!

### 4/5 — Nice.

*2010-01-11*

Good app. But would like to see blackboard access, aces access, merchants on points numbers and menus, better calendar or maybe just a separate academic calendar, bus schedule, more basketball stuff, etc.

### 4/5 — pretty good

*2009-10-17, version 0*

i have to admit - it's a great idea. however, there are several key items missing. there should be a simpler interface for searching through the Duke Directory (looking up phone numbers + email addresses like on duke.edu). also, there should be hours for the dukestores (computer, textbook, etc). overall - great app. great idea. also, BUS SCHEDULE would be the most useful addition at this point - and it would be simple to add.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2009-10-09, version 0*

Good app

### 5/5 — Great app

*2009-08-14*

Wish I could have had this as a freshman! I might not have gotten lost trying to find Bostock! Although search doesn't recognize LSRC, only Levine Science Research Center. Bring able to search with commonly used acronyms would be useful. 

I would also LOVE to see ACES incorporated into this app. Bring able to check my grades and more would be extremely useful as a current student. Using Safari to visit the site is a pain.

Dining options would also be nice. Contact information for merchants on points, hours for options on and off campus, menus if possible for merchants on points. Like the section of the dining website, but much friendlier

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2009-08-02, version 0*

This is a great app.  It's just a shame Apple allows people that haven't even downloaded the app to write dumb reviews.

### 5/5 — Good App

*2009-07-21, version 0*

Good info about everything at Duke.

### 5/5 — Really awesome!

*2009-07-07*

I am quite impressed with the DukeMobile suite! The app is very professionally done and feels really at home on the iPhone. Browsing courses is lightning fast and really easy, and I love that I can find where my classes are on the map (as well as myself). Events is nice - especially the free food category! This app is essential for anyone at Duke with an iPhone or iTouch. Thank you, and well done!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2009-04-28, version 0*

This is a great app I used it for reunion and it mad it so east.

### 1/5 — DukeOne Login Missing for Alumni

*2025-09-02, version 8.6.1*

Alumni not a selection in app and there IS NO DukeOne Login, no chance to SSO to alumni. Lifetime email, no availability to library resources for research, no ability to tell the chronicle they need some.. allot of remedial English composition edu, as their stories plural about alumni this and alumni that, include myself and other classmates who like me, do NOT  concur w/ The Chronicle & think they should correct the store be factual by changing  Alumni to “Some Alumni”as I ASSURE you, you’ll find more grad school alumni than not, very disagree with those hateful racist exclusive beliefs that SOME chronicle writers (see how that’s used, SOME as in 1 or more, instead of ‘writers’ which is PLURAL and means all (granted I wouldn’t be surprised) but to be fair should there be  writers on staff who perhaps  hold more of what one might call, a normal and a sane opinion & viewpoint, whom instead of taking everything they hear on the news as fact and  who don’t believe social media, Wikipedia or media matters are tools one should even remotely consider using to verify any news story, ever. Perhaps there are writers whom are critical thinking future leaders.. let’s hope so.  See, many Alumni, and normal sane mature human beings, do not see the color or a persons skin, we believe inclusion means every human being, we love America and believe in our republic’s democracy, freedom for all, and while everyone should be welcome after proper vetting by the state department,
or lawfully presenting themselves at a legal entry point, we believe American Citizens come first in the USA for education and taxpayer funded resources. We’d hope every country feels that way about their citizens. I don’t think the king of Saudi should give me oil entitlements and let me enroll at
Their finest university and then expect them to pay for it. Only a psychopath ,a sociopath or a low
IQ mentally handicapped  person who’s brain functionality is so impaired that it cannot use critical thinking nor can it produce logical thoughts. Every American who loves their home and community, feels this same way.. at a minimum, every country has an ethical and moral obligation to its own citizens first. 
Those whom want to harm America or hurt Americans because they hate everything about the USA and they hate you too, are those who fly other country flags while flying their own, anyone using violence or threats to promote their opinion, anyone who encourages punishing or disparaging a person because of the color of their skin for something an unknown relative did a couple of centuries ago is a racist or maybe just plain stupid, and no sane person thinks that anyone, aka nobody should get any type of benefit because of race creed or religion.. 
we believe that the kill whitey sentiment is racost and that whomever wrote its impossible for a specific skin color to be racier or writes about reverse racism.. stop.. just stop. That’s beyond stupid you’re a moron if you believe that and a low iq moron if you calll
Someone racist for thinking this very normal and sane thought.. 
 We  condemn any protest that disturbs students staff faculty or classes, we believe the only flag that should be flown on campus is the beautiful American Flag. We strongly condemn any staff or faculty who pushes a personal agenda  or any pro socialist or anti American narratives or content. 
Equally we whole heartedly condem communism & socialism and  the past & current atrocities of their dictatorial regimes (ie Mao Stalin Hitler Lenin Kim Xi Castro PolPot Chauvez Kim) they say alumni to authenticate that into my former NetID login so I can ask for help from the app, as I cannot being that the netID is purged 12 mos post grad, granted i’d  still like to see financial status for loans etc.which I’ll pay off early by 07/04/2467) 
in digress.. 
There’s nowhere in the app  a graduate school alumni wishing to report there is no alumni option (granted there is for an unknown to log into DukeOne To ask for help in the app or gets support I have to use my NetID, which was converted to my DukeOne ID, which is absent from the app)  but the worse part of the app,  is the racist hateful exclusive garbage hosted seems like everywhere I click, aka 1 page deep within the app, the chronicle writers hunt us using mage like weapons of great psychosis & grand  delusions . (The aforementioned sociopathic feature, Anti-American propaganda,  Disrespect to our leaders to our military members, the racist and hateful ramblings & writings of woke
By the ultra woke the hate the negativity is ONLY on the app, as not once have I seen it just as a story on a random Duke dot Edu page..    Only on the Duke Mobile App does the blond lead the blind & the enemies of America flourish bloom and grow

### 5/5 — This APP is awesome like Duke!

*2009-12-28*

Now if they could just get an app for Duke Med, that would be great. I really feel sorry for the UNC fans, thinking this was a blog on ACC sports. Maybe if they dumb down the technology, UNC could get an app like this. Need to use lots of pics and s-p-e-a-k  r-e-a-l  s-l-o-w-www....

### 5/5 — Duke app is awesome

*2009-10-31, version 0*

You had to search "duke" to get this app.  So clearly, everyone reviewing has some obsession with Duke.  Go Blue Devils!  Always awesome.  Always classy.
