Nearly impossible to login

Fix the bugs. This app asks for your login credentials at every turn, then often shows a blank page. I end up having to just use a normal browser to see myNIU. No amount of reinstalling the app works. Please fix

Review

fersure.

Love it

I love how I can check for the bus and other things related to going to NIU on the go

Old Map Version was Much Better

The current version of the map is terrible. It's slow, glitchy, and the names of the buildings aren't listed. The old version worked much better and it was much easier to find out which buildings are which. Change back to the only version.

Agree with "names on map"

Bring them back. That is all

Not inclusive to all

I am disappointed with the new update. For the students with visual impairments, some must use voiceover. Some features of the app, including residential dining menus, can no longer be accessed with voiceover. This is a major disappointment!

Names on Map

The app is helpful but would be even more helpful if the building's names were still on the map that way students can find their way around easier.

Good but missing the old map.

Okay I loved the app and it has helped me a lot being new but the update kind of messed it up because I can see how the new map can be helpful but you should also include the old one because that one was better to me.

A+

Great

Great!

Please add the feature to check your one card balance it would be helpful. Overall very useful app.

Keep up!

Good app, the functionality is there. However, I'd suggest keeping up with software updates as were are now on iOS 7 and the app just doesn't fit the framework anymore. This could be a great app (5 stars) is there was more TLC given to working out the bugs and updating the user interface of the app to keep up with the current iOS.

Failed update

Update says new MyOneCard section. Does not show up. Also you left "placesTest" in the code and UI. Should check what version you are uploading before submitting.

Gud app

useful app, although bus routes should be updated

needs update for bus routes

bus routes needs update with new tracking system.

Crashes

Blackboard is the only function of this app I use and since the new iOS was released blackboard crashes constantly. Please fix!

Good apps

Blackboard crashes a lot and drives me bonkers

iOS 6

Since the newest update I cannot look at the bus tracker at all! If this bug it fixed I would give this a definite 5 stars!

Great but needs webmail access!

Can you please add webmail access? Thanks!!!

Needs an iPad app.

It's a pretty decent app other than the missing iPad app.

Bus Tracker needs update

Ever since the iOS 6 update, the bus tracker doesn't work. Before that, it was amazing.
