### 4/5 — Accessibility could be better

*2025-09-19, version 2024.08.0500*

While I do like the app, it isn’t the most accessible with the Apple based screen reader voiceover. And as someone who is light sensitive, I think the app needs a dark mode option. To address the accessibility issues with the screen reader, if you are in a tab like notifications while your screen reader is off, and you turn the screen reader on, it will immediately jump back to the homepage. And it will do this with any tab you open inside the app, and that is an issue that definitely needs to be handled because it can cause navigation problems for people such as myself who are blind or visually impaired.

### 4/5 — Is the app informative and easy to use

*2025-06-14, version 2024.08.0500*

Yes I think the app is informative and easy to use and I do enjoy the student feed because usually I can look on there and my questions are answered

### 1/5 — App is not working!

*2026-06-06, version 2024.08.0500*

When is the app coming back??

### 1/5 — .

*2026-05-21, version 2024.08.0500*

Idk if the app just got canceled or something but it won’t work period. Used to love it but now it won’t work

### 1/5 — Fix the search bar

*2025-03-12, version 2024.08.0500*

You can’t search for anything in the search!!! It keeps glitching. It comes up as no results and it’s frustrating because sometimes you just wanna get the answers to questions you have that might have already been answered!!!

### 1/5 — Insane

*2021-06-30*

So there’s nobody to talk to to fix the app is what I keep getting told what I call In to the school (BCTC) and complain about it. It will not stay logged in on my iPhone and iPad so when I switch between the two I constantly have to sign in, and then when I sign in sometimes he’ll act like it’s going to go through but then it kicks me right back to the sign so I Gotta do it again and then I’ll act like it’s going to go through and then I’ll kick me back and I do this sometimes three and four times before it actually goes through and then if I have to move over to my iPad I get to do the same thing all over again yay fun… The only reason why I use this app is so I can do my schoolwork otherwise I would not use this app at all! And I don’t understand why there’s so many different ways to get to one thing but you have to navigate a certain way you can do both things on my path and blackboard but if you go through my path there’s some classes that’s why you Gotta go and other classes you have to go through blackboard it makes no sense it should be either or or one only!

**Developer response:** Not staying logged in to multiple devices drives me crazy too.  Submit a request at https://support.readyeducation.com/hc/en-us/requests/new    If enough students request this, I hope we can get this changed by the developer. 

Send an email to KCTCSapp@kctcs.edu so we can discuss how the app, Blackboard, and My Path are working differently for different classes.  I want to know more.  Also in email let me know who you are talking to at BCTC so I can make sure they know how to request support.  FYI - My Path is being updated over the weekend.  Let us know what you think!

### 1/5 — Not used for its intended purposes?

*2021-02-10*

This app is not to post about your coco after tucking your kids in. 
This is not where you post pictures of your dog. 
This is not where you find romance. 
This is for education. 
I absolutely cannot stand the amount of people using this app as facebook or tinder. I am paying tuition and that money is going towards an app that I can’t post a genuine question I need help with for college because it will get lost in random irrelevant posts. Ive looked past the illiteracy in posts. People do not need to be wasting educational resources on this. Add a social tab for those posts if you must. I was under the impression this was more of a forum than instagram.

### 1/5 — Horrible customer support

*2018-01-17, version 3.1.98*

This app hasn’t worked right since the first day I installed to my iPhone. I would suggest selling the business to some engineers who know how build an app without all of the problems that occur on a daily basis. Worst app that’s offered for my iPhone 7 Plus! Thanks for not caring! And by the way I rated you guys 1star because I had to in order to post my review. -negative 💩🤮☠️👎🏻👎🏻 wasn’t an option till now.

### 2/5 — After fourth semester experience

*2021-03-08*

This is my fourth semester in Somerset community college, my first comment for this app mostly ignored, the structured interface and navigation not changed, some bugs removed but also removed some important staff one of them: 
- search in Student Feed room you cannot look up anymore for past posts, you cannot look it up for topics, you still can typing keywords and click search but it say: “no posts” search window is exist but it’s not functional! That is poor “update” 

If anyone reads this, please update the student calendar, it was designed poorly and not functional at all! 
-Also can you please create grades/performance page with all classes ( at list semester) so we don’t have to digging each class data for grades, every teacher put grades in different place, that I would call disorganized! For final grades need open “unofficial“ transcript in pdf format, I would like see progress of all my performance with all my classes on one page for present semester, and continue access to this page after, print easy or safe in different formats.

Seems faculty more participated in students life and needs, I can tell there is improvement.

Past feedback in first semester:

I wish all grades you can see in this app, but this not necessarily app issues but teachers/instructors; chat option some restricted, example I personally know students in SCC but I can’t find them in chat, so is they can’t find me, it seems somebody manages who I can chat with!
Several time app kick me from log, and I need to login again! It’s no big deal if I have plenty of the time, but I’m super busy and this app not helps, but take more my time!
Why I can’t now see my schedule for next semester?! I working full time and I need to plan my job base on school schedule in January! Is anybody care? Need better design assessments due to notifications, soo many students complained about missing them, just because trust this app! I completed all classes and still can’t see all of my grades, not in the app and not online! 

Conclusion is, idea of this app is good, but need improvements in interface, navigation, and faculty of KCTCS participation!

### 2/5 — Completely Changed!

*2019-08-18*

They completely changed the app with the new update and now nothing is where I need it to be and everything is harder to get to. Instead of one click to get to my schedule, it’s now 4 clicks. At least it is a little easier to get to my email, but I wish they had put the MyPath closer to the top of the page so I don’t have to scroll all the way down to get to it. I’m sure I’ll get used to it, but I feel like they think they are making it easier but it’s really not.

### 3/5 — It needs work

*2025-08-23, version 2024.08.0500*

It won’t show me me my courses

### 3/5 — Wish it was more accessible

*2023-01-07, version 2022.12.1200*

Mostly user-friendly. I just wish it was easier to find and navigate through the app’s features. 

Also, I can't see posts on my iPad until I click “Comment”. Hoping it gets fixed soon.

### 5/5 — Registration was a BREEZE.

*2025-07-13, version 2024.08.0500*

Being an older student I have nightmares about registering and dealing with financial aid back in the day. KCTCS practically did it all for me. Advisors both facial aid side and academic side were super helpful. Looking forward to fall 2025 there.
