### 1/5 — Doesn't even get past syncing

*2016-02-06*

Tried numerous times. Tried reinstalling same issues. Waste of time.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Why no Privacy Information?

*2024-09-04*

Why is there no Privacy Information provided?

### 1/5 — Cant even Log in

*2023-08-14*

Absolutely disgusting, literally won’t let me log in because I’m not a “Australian” resident. I was literally born here and I got to Curtin University in Bently, Perth. I don’t know what’s causing this but if I don’t figure it out soon. I’ll have to guess when my labs are since they change a lot .

### 1/5 — This app needs to be fixed

*2023-08-14*

Logged me out because it said I wasn’t in an Australian campus when I am so can’t login anymore to see my timetable

### 1/5 — Ouch.

*2018-08-01*

Older iOS devices still see Elsie is "taking a break" . . .  Guess the dev team are too . . .

### 1/5 — Keypad stops login

*2017-06-17*

Using this with iPad and I can't get past the login section because the keyboard is in front of the 'login' button and I can't make it go away. Epic fail from 'the University of Technology'.

### 1/5 — Help

*2016-04-29*

Syncing fails all the time, and now it won't let me login at all since I've had to change my password

### 1/5 — Bad

*2016-04-23*

Syncing always fails :/

### 1/5 — Useless

*2016-03-13*

Have never got past the loading screen as it crashes almost immediately every time

### 1/5 — You are not ineligible

*2016-02-25*

...

### 1/5 — Doesn't even start

*2016-02-21*

I'm using an iPhone 4 and this app doesn't even start, it crashes right after I open it. I've reinstalled the app many times but still no change. I hope this changes.

### 5/5 — Wish It Supported Non-Australian Campuses

*2021-09-04*

I love the sentiment behind this app, being named after Elsie Curtin to act as a worthy companion. As a Curtin Dubai student, I wish my classmates and I could use it! I'd get all of them on board if I could :)

### 5/5 — Very useful app!

*2017-03-07*

Elsie manages the tour de force of centralizing all essential information regarding your time at Curtin. Very simple to use and great UI.
An essential app to download for all students!

### 5/5 — Super handy student app

*2017-02-27*

Works really well on the iPhone! Amazing planner, easy to use and just all around great student app.

### 4/5 — Really good, but needs a couple of things to be fixed

*2015-08-25*

Loving the app so far! If you could add a way to have events you create repeat daily/weekly/fortnightly/monthly/yearly that would be awesome. Also, there needs to be a way to expand the details provided on class test times/assessment details as I often find them being cut off due to lack of space

### 4/5 — First impressions are: it's pretty good!

*2015-08-24*

Like I said above, looks pretty good, and definitely handy. If it continues to work well, I'll be able to delete several other apps 😁👍🏽

### 4/5 — Handy little App

*2015-08-24*

Not that I need any more apps for uni, but I thought I'd give this a go and it's been really handy to have all the info it provides in one place, rather than going back and forth between my calendar and other uni apps. So far so good!

### 3/5 — Needs iPad app

*2017-01-20*

This is a very handy and convenient app and I cannot fault it for what it is, but I do most of my uni work on my iPad, which means I can't use this app really at all.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2023-08-14*

The app tells me that I’m not enrolled in an
Australian campus even though I clearly have been.

### 2/5 — Better but worse at the same time.

*2018-07-30*

The new map in Elsie doesn’t let you search for buildings, points of interest, or even show your current position, which begs the question; what’s the point then?
The map in the older version of Elsie was extremely useful because it could actually help you navigate around the campus.
