Problems with Bullying and Harassment on the App
I am so angry and feel humiliated by the way I was treated by the TAMU class of 2026 on Patio. I was honest from the start and made it very clear that I lived in and went to school in Oregon. I told them that I lived in Texas for several years and that I lived in College Station. I even sent pictures of me proving that I was there. I told them that I know people in College Station and that I was planning on moving back. Still, they were being really nasty to me about me living in Oregon and going to school there. They wouldn’t stop even though I tried to disengage MULTIPLE times. I even have screenshots of the conversation and witnesses of what happened. I just don’t know what to do.

There’s needs to be a way to Manage notifications.
This app is pretty amazing. A forum where up incoming students at the same college is great. It has made many peoples transition from childhood to adult much easier. However, if you’re in multiple chats with hundreds (or thousands) of people, there needs to be a way to manage notifications. Because your phone will always constantly go off. If there was a way to make notifications appear only when you directly replied to and when someone tagged you, then I would give this app 5 stars.

Perfect for college students
I first joined patio when I was a senior in high school looking to find friends who would be going to college with me. I met SO many people who are my friends even to this day while I am a current college student, one of them is my roommate!! Patio is great for keeping it exclusive to people in the college so no creeps join the chats- plus every student in the patio has access to join whatever group they want so there is no exclusivity. Whereas, with groupme you have to get a link and anyone can kick you out at any point (I actually had a problem with a groupme chat doing that last semester). Patio has done nothing less than facilitate good community building for incoming college freshman and help them find friends in their interests and I am very thankful for that.

AMAZING
I’m currently admitted to my dream college. To be honest I’m super scared about all the what ifs: making friends, getting a good roommate, and having a friend group. After I found the patio for my college, it changed my life. Everyone was so active and I’ve made a bunch of friends. The plus side of this app is that you can create a bio, a roommate gc, and honestly, it’s so better than GROUPME. GROUPME had a lot of technical issues and we weren’t able to create a bio and show our interests. To add on to it was just confusing and there wasn’t much to do with it. Creating separate group chats all under the same class is so cool! I honestly love patio and it doesn’t get the Recognition it deserves.
