Really useful for PSU students
I’ve been using Penn State Go for a while now and it’s been super handy. All the stuff I actually need day to day (Canvas, email, LionPATH, Starfish, dining menus, shuttle info, mobile ordering, etc.) is in one place so I’m not constantly digging around different sites or apps. It makes checking to-do’s and class announcements way easier.
Honestly, it’s just nice having everything Penn State related in one app. Definitely makes life as a student here simpler.

keeps crashing
make me authenticate one more time istg. I just want to order lunch
Frustrated
I sign in and it tells me to access via the new update. I sign in again and it closes the app.
Last update broke it
I don't know what you guys did but the last update made the app completely unusable. I try and log into my lionpath and I get to the authenticator and my app crashes and keeps crashing.
Response from developer
We're sorry to hear that the app is crashing when you use the Authenticator. This isn't something we want you to deal with, so we're here to help. Please reach out to us at pennstatego@psu.edu so we can investigate and fix this for you. Thanks for your patience and understanding! Penn State Go Team
Crash
Another failed attempt at a useless update. For a school with hundreds of millions of dollars, maybe a billion, you’d think they could get a mobile app to work.
Response from developer
We’re sorry to hear that you’re frustrated with the recent update. We understand how important it is for the app to work smoothly, and we’re committed to making improvements. We value your feedback and would love to hear your suggestions on how we can make the app better for you. Please reach out to us at pennstatego@psu.edu with any ideas or issues you’ve encountered. We’re here to help! Thank you for your patience and understanding. Penn State Go Team
It’s OK, but a lot of improvements are still needed
Many part of the app still uses webpages, specifically for the ID card deposit section. It did not optimize for mobile devices but uses a desktop interface. Hope this can be fixed in the future
Bugs bugs bugs
Common guys, I pay huge money to be here. Y’all can’t even make a good app, no less an actually good web portal.
Penn State Go App
A must have app! Quick access to your email, Canvas, LionPath, Star Fish and other important links.
PennState Go keeps me going at Penn State
The app has a lot of functions for me to quickly access systems needed for academic life at Penn State. Being able to reach Canvas quick in class is really nice, as well as the Covid symptom checker. I’ve used the link out to the symptom checked everyday during the semester since Covid started to get advice when I don’t feel well. I definitely like having the everything app.

Start Over
You really only use it for mobile food ordering, and even that doesn’t work half the time.
Cannot even log in
This app wont let me log in. Completely not working after opt screen
Won’t keep me logged in
The main idea behind the app is great and there’s a lot of convenience behind it but, I have to log back into the app every time I relaunch the app. This strips away the convenience that the app initially offers.
Beyond that, the message notifications don’t go away when an item is read and sometimes the tapping on the item doesn’t even register.
Cool app, needs work.

Has an extreme amount of bugs.
When first opening the app, you are greeted with a page full of options that you may need. Many very helpful in your day to day life. But as soon as you click one, the problems start to arise. To start, the messages feature rarely works as it should. The app also has you log in often, but won’t let you auto fill and will sometimes just not log in.
The biggest pet peeve is how none of the icons lead you to that section like you would expect. Most of them open a page of safari in the app. The app renders itself pointless due to how you can do everything faster by a google search. The app needs an extreme amount of bug fixes before it is usable.

It’s fine
It’s alright. Really useful in certain aspects, really annoying in other. Sometimes I rather just open the Penn State websites on chrome or safari instead of on the app, and the notifications keep saying that they’re unread even though I press “mark all as read” every time they show up. Sometimes it feels like the app is just using the website and didn’t change the function for the phone experience (example: the maps). Has a lot of potential and some of it is good but a fair bit wasted

Why?
I don’t understand the point of this app. It’s just a captive browser with bookmarks. Even at that it’s very slow and requires constant re-authentication.
Impossible to log in
App errors every time i try to log in it is completely useless.
Always errors
It never opens up the apps
Doesn’t work
When you log into one of the apps (LionPath and etc) you need authentication to get in. Once I authenticate it, it tells me unknown error. Therefore, I have to go to the web to do it myself rather than go through the app.
Needs fixed
Every time i try to log into anything, it says “unknown error.”
This app is bomb!
This app has everything you could ever possibly need. No complaints here!
