## What is lateplate?

Lateplate (by Campus Cooks) is a simple way of managing your Fraternity and Sorority meal plan lateplates. Through Lateplate’s unique QR code scanning system, members are able to easily track and view assignments of reusable lateplates.

After the kitchen hand makes a lateplate for a member’s request, they can scan the lateplate’s QR code which will automatically send either a push notification or an email to that respective member. This alerts that member to which number lateplate they’ve been assigned.

* REPEATING SCHEDULES *
Members are able to set up weekly repeating schedules to ensure they always have a lateplate available for when they need it. 

* QUICK REQUESTS *
Quick requests are available to everyone when they need a last minute lateplate made for that day. 

* MENU *
Quickly view the week's menu at a glance and decide if you want to request a lateplate for that meal.

* DIETARY RESTRICTIONS *
Using the app, members are able to set their own dietary preferences and indicate any dietary restrictions they may have. 

* CUSTOMIZABILITY *
Lateplate is designed to fit seamlessly into your organization’s culture by providing a wide range of customization options. The organization admin is able to set certain cutoff times for when quick requests may be submitted. The organization admin is also able to setup the maximum number of lateplates a member is allowed to have checked out at any one moment, ensuring that no single member continuously loses lateplates.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-08-31, version 4.3*

This app just doesn’t work. They need to fix it, try to pull up the menus and it just shuts down. All men in my fraternity are having the same issue for 2 weeks now

### 3/5 — This app is good but missing best parts of old!

*2021-08-30, version 4.0*

So this is obviously the new and improved app from Campus Cooks and don’t get me wrong - it is better than the old BUT it’s also missing so many of the features I enjoyed on the old one.

First off, we can request late plates for more the current day? It’s annoying when a girl has clinicals every day to miss lunch but has to also remember to say she wants a late plate e.v.e.r.y.d.a.y. If the schedule button does this, it’s not super clear.

Second, I loved looking forward for meals and seeing the upcoming food. You can only see the current week’s. Princess problem? Sure. But I miss that feature.

Third, the actual physical act of a late plate is awful. The marker on the container wipes off so girls take the wrong meals and we had a girl who has a dairy allergy scrape the cheese off of her meal because nobody could tell whose meal was whose.

I can tell this app is better in a technical sense - it’s faster and actually lets you click on things - but it has a lot to be desired.

### 5/5 — Surprisingly well made

*2021-08-26, version 4.0*

App is surprisingly well made and has a great UI. Love it!

### 5/5 — Great app, great system

*2019-01-23, version 1.0*

We recently implemented lateplate and it is an awesome and easy to use system, really helps speed up the process of getting a meal and makes it much easier. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Thanks to lateplate I can finally stop starving

*2019-01-23, version 1.0*

Before lateplate, I didn’t eat. Now I do
