### 3/5 — News Feed goofiness in latest release

*2018-02-21*

I’ve been a big fan of this app, particularly for the easy access to MIT news.
The latest release makes some big changes to the list view of articles.
I just don’t like this new style with less articles in view. It’s also annoying that during scrolling it invariably selects one of the articles (highlights it in bright blue).
I’m just trying to scroll.
Hopefully someone will take a look!
(On iPhone 6s)

### 4/5 — Great App

*2012-10-13, version 3.3.4*

This app is great! It helps me get around MIT and know when the shuttles are coming.  It would be great if you optimized it for iOS 6 bigger screens.

### 3/5 — Good

*2012-07-13, version 3.3.2*

Stellar consistently crashes every time I try to use it. It would be great if stellar worked

### 3/5 — Stellar Crashes!!

*2012-07-01*

Can't get on Stellar at all with this app, which is really the only truly useful feature for current students. I try to select a course for Stellar, and the app crashes 100% of the time.

### 5/5 — Please make a version for IPad!

*2011-11-20*

Thanks a lot for this great app, I use it a lot for Stellar, Map, Shuttles, News/Events and whatnot.
However, a fullscreen version for iPad would be very welcome!!
Thank you!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2011-11-03, version 3.2.3*

I'm only 12 and want to go to MIT and I think that this application is great to learn about MIT and all that's happening there.

### 4/5 — Great but closes automatically while looking at shuttle schedules

*2011-06-07, version 3.1*

As above

### 5/5 — Welcome...

MIT in Mobile Age! ;)

### 1/5 — Can’t log in!

*2024-04-12, version 4.9*

App is throwing an unhandled exception error 491c6454a7 trying to get to the alumni account login.  I tried both android and iPhone versions neither worked.

### 1/5 — Hot garbage

*2023-04-25*

The new shuttle tracking interface is unusable on mobile. Not only that, it doesn’t seem to reflect the correct shuttle location. It’ll indicate a shuttle is arriving when it’s in fact travelling in the wrong direction from the one queried. How hard is it to test this before deploying???

### 1/5 — Dining Issues

*2023-02-24*

I’ve been using it to check dining halls, but now it always says they’re all closed :(

### 1/5 — Shuttle tracking...

*2016-03-17*

It would be great if there is a message board for the shuttle. For example, for the driver or system to indicate that the shuttle is not running or running late. Sometimes the shuttle is just offline when it should be running. And people end up waiting for it for a very long time....

### 1/5 — Saferide doesn't track

*2016-02-15, version 4.1.0*

This is horrible I can't figure out when saferide is coming. this is the worst update ever. Fix it please we go to a tech school....

### 1/5 — Shuttle Tracking is broken

*2016-02-13, version 4.1.0*

No longer shows times on the overview page for anything other than Tech Shuttle, Saferide Boston East is completely missing -- completely useless for people who don't live on campus.

### 1/5 — What ???

*2014-05-01*

I thought the MIT app would have thousands of reviews !!!

### 1/5 — tour doesn't seem to work with new iOS

*2013-10-08, version 3.4*

I got this to do the self guided tour but that part of the app doesn't seem to work

### 1/5 — Crashes each time!

*2012-03-26, version 3.3.2*

I have tried several times to startup this app but it crashes each time

### 2/5 — Convenient but ehh

*2015-10-30, version 4.0.4*

This is very convenient but only works when you are on campus. Useless otherwise. Change that and i'd update to 5*****

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2013-08-24*

I can help you guys make it iPhone 5 compatible! Otherwise, I like it. It's always nice to keep up to date with the school you want to get into!

### 5/5 — Saferide schedule can't be better

*2012-10-19*

The maps are helpful too. All the other features aren't too useful
