### 2/5 — for students only?

*2025-10-12, version 2025.9.23*

the app no longer shows time off balances or other employee things for which i used it. if this app is intended for just students, then i currently have no use for it. when i become a student again, i’ll pick it back up and review it again.

### 3/5 — Fix the bus schedule please

*2020-11-29*

Does everything it should and is easy to use. Go bucks!

### 3/5 — Useful, BUT

*2020-08-27*

Lots of great things to say about this app, however, the student orgs menu only showed the full list on one occasion, and every time I visited thereafter, quite a few were missing that were there before.

**Developer response:** Sometimes the data refresh from Student Life gets stuck. I just looked again and it appears that everything should be back in place. If this happens again please use the in-app feedback form so that we can address this problem as quickly as possible. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Very helpful especially for freshmen Buckeyes

*2020-08-24, version 2020.8.17*

### 1/5 — Review

*2026-04-05, version 2026.3.27*

1. No self page with your info to identify yourself as an alumni.
2. No basic list of perks available to you as an alumni.
3. People search - searched myself - I apparently do not exist. 
4. Really, this is as good as OSU can do?

### 1/5 — Buildings tab inaccurate

*2024-09-04, version 2024.8.26*

they didn’t even show me the address of ellie and mason HOUSE💜😡

### 1/5 — Buggy, lazy

*2023-09-11, version 2023.8.7*

Ironic that a state university couldn’t recuit a handful of devs to properly build a working phone app. App does not work

### 1/5 — The CLS non-stop driver

*2023-03-13*

8:30 am in March 13th. The CSL bus drove in buckeye parking lot station, and I am 5 meters away. When I walked towards the bus, it drove away!!! That is crazy, with only 2 seconds wait. I am not sure what that driver is hurry for. Please investigate this issue, as it happens a lot!

**Developer response:** Hello! I forwarded this on to Transportation and Traffic Management. If you have any more feedback you can also contact them directly at ttminfo@osu.edu

### 1/5 — Suspicious activity

*2022-12-07*

Deleting the app because at least once a month it appears in my screen time as running 24/7 for several days, yet I’ve never opened it on my iPad and it doesn’t have background permissions. It also doesn’t show up at ALL on the battery use page. Very strange, so I’ll be deleting the app from my devices

### 1/5 — New Calendar

*2022-08-29, version 2022.8.26*

I hate this new calendar that cannot check previous week calendar.

### 1/5 — Horrendously bad

*2022-02-23, version 2022.2.9*

I hate this app. I don’t think it’s possible to make an app less functional

### 1/5 — They got rid of the weekly calendar?

*2021-01-27, version 2021.1.13*

What happened to the weekly calendar on this app...now I can’t see my weekly schedule

### 1/5 — Navigation

*2020-09-02, version 2020.8.32*

The app is still confusing to use a little bit

### 1/5 — App REQUIRES iOs 13.0 or later?

*2019-10-14, version 2019.10.1*

I only have an iPhone 6 so my phone doesn’t have an update past 12.4 available, yet I have to have the same update as newer iPhones to download the app to access my class schedules? This is annoying.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Pretty cool

*2026-08-29*

It pretty much has everything you need. There are live bus maps, notifications for upcoming events, list of upcoming assignments, class map, digital buckID, and the list goes on a lot further like it’s pretty awesome

So like yeah there’s no reason to not get the app if you’re an Ohio state student imo 

I hope you have a great day to everyone reading this

### 5/5 — Excellent User Experience

*2025-01-03*

Truly impressed at the look and functionality of this app

### 5/5 — So easy to use

*2024-08-28*

As an OSU student I love this app. I feel extremely fortunate to go to a school that is able to give technology that actually helps and advances my attendance. The only thing I had trouble understanding was the bus, but after talking with some other students I was able to figure it out!

### 5/5 — A necessity.

*2024-08-20*

This app has been the singular best tool for my time at OSU. It does everything - class schedules, payment information, IT ticket updates, even a list of gender-neutral restrooms on campus. Fish, whoever you are, you need a pay raise.

### 5/5 — So easy to use

*2023-12-25*

As an OSU student I love this app. I feel extremely fortunate to go to a school that is able to give technology that actually helps and advances my attendance. The only thing I had trouble understanding was the bus, but after talking with some other students I was able to figure it out (sorta).

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-08-21*

The OSU app is so helpful, especially since I'm a new student. It has campus maps, dining and parking locations, mental health and wellness resources, etc. It's a great resource for people who may or may not know who to ask for certain things around campus. It also has campus events which is great if you want to get more involved but don't know how. 10/10 I think this app has everything you need to thrive here

### 5/5 — Super useful for students

*2023-01-09, version 2022.12.15*

A+ app

### 5/5 — Best tool for OSU students

*2022-12-31*

Helps me keep track of my assignments, meetings, payments, and navigating campus. It also alerts me when I get enrolled in a waitlist class and let’s me know when a final grade has been posted with a very distinctive tune. This app is a must for Ohio State University students.

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2022-08-28*

Seems like feedback portion not working but love the app.

**Developer response:** Hi! Please send email to fish.26 so I can collect a little more information and we can figure out how to improve this for you. Thanks!

### 5/5 — LOVE IT!

*2022-04-28, version 2022.3.31*

BUT…that’s just because I…LOVE…THE…Ohio State University…AND…so does my BoyFriend…why else wuld we have chosen EachOther?
