Terrible

Just shut down the whole thing. This hasn’t worked since October of 2025. There’s no one to talk to the school about this IT just passes you off.

It just stays at a failed screen.
This shows the kind of education you’ll receive at LSU….mediocre.

doesn’t load

i have never successfully even opened the app because it does not load. “connection failed. retry.” i’ve never seen anything else pop up and i’ve sat on that screen forever

Doesn’t work

Doesn’t work

App doesn’t load. It keeps saying Connection Failed

Loading Screen

I tried updating it, deleting it, restarting my phone. It still doesn’t work when I open the app I just get stuck with the loading screen eternally.

App isn't working

Every time I open the app, it won't let me past the loading screen. I cannot access anything. Having a mobile map of LSU was convenient and now I have to use regular maps

Can't open

1 star because I've updated my iOS and the app but it still won't open.
Going on 3 months of waiting ...

Not useful as the website

I feel like going to lsu.edu is much faster to access your moodle and mylsu. The app definitely need a change in layout and an update.

fix moodle

i hate having to tap "CLICK HERE FOR YOUR MOODLE COURSES" every time i want to open moodle. update the url. it shouldn't be that hard

Needs some love

This app hasn’t been updated in well over a year. As a result, there’s a lot of functionality that has been discontinued. Additionally, the bus tracking has degraded to the point that the odds are very low of the bus being where it’s shown to be tracked.

Needs better information

As a visitor, I expected this app to help me find visitor specific locations. Unless you know what building you are looking for the map isn’t very helpful. Also the search function failed every time. I should be able to find things like the visitor center, admissions, financial aid office easily. Frankly this was no better than Google maps.

Update

The update helped so much!!

Don't update

New app does not show the buildings like the old app. All Transit busses cannot be selected at once. App is kinda slow compared to old one. Old one was easy and simple.

Eric Schindler, App Critic for Improvement Specialist

Not a surprise to see that the app is mediocre at best, considering that LSU's main website, MyLSU, is mediocre at best...
Criticisms: The resolution of the app is poor. Sharper displays should be applied to make the app at least look like it's professionally designed. From the get-go one gets the idea that this was an app made in the early 2000's.
Secondly, your MyLSU account should be connected to the app! Who designs an app for an organization where login is secondary. The app should have a 'remember me' feature so that logging in to MyLSU is not necessary. I shouldn't have to tell you that this saves time AND frustration.
Thirdly, there shouldn't be loading time between switching sections and clicking links, nor should switching sections cause a new 'portal' (tab) to be open. I know that seems unfair to say but Twitter, Facebook, and almost any professionally crafted apps are deliberate and immediate.
This is LSU. It deserves the best ENGINEERED college app out there. Perhaps some bugs need to be squashed in the system, some recoding needs to be done, or even starting from scratch is the solution, but, one thing's certain: LSU's app & website need an overhaul.

Good but...

Haven't used it in a while but it definitely needed to have been updated since 2013.

Bad

I don't like this app, I got lost twice using it, and it doesn't update to accommodate new buildings, which I needed to find!!!!

Great app but....

I'd love an option to leave me logged in on my "mylsu" section
I'd love an iPad version!

Future tiger

I am a future tiger and am getting ready by having this app and its great

Its ok

I love the use of this app to access all my classes but lately it wont let me have access to them or view my grades. PLZ FIX!

Not half bad

It's a little spotty at times but it gets you out of a bind pretty easily, great help
