### 2/5 — Great Idea but with so many missing necessities

*2021-11-20, version 1.4*

This could be a great app as it is a painless way for students to connect, but some of the missing features are embarrassing. There is no notification number on the app, notifications either do not show up or do not make a sound and do not appear on the Lock Screen, cropping images is inaccurate and you cannot like them or attributes you have in common with others. Age does bot change after your birthday and it is far too east to accidentally swipe and not be able to go back.

### 2/5 — Concept good but crashes too often

*2021-08-20, version 1.1*

I like the concept but I've had to reinstall the app multiple times as it just simply won't load and just crashes at startup.

**Developer response:** Hey! We are so sorry that you've encountered this problem. Are you still having this issue after the update?
 You can reach out to us at usesparkapp@gmail.com if you're still encountering any issues. Hope to see you back on Spark!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2021-09-17, version 1.2*

Really cool app for students

### 5/5 — very good app!!

*2021-08-27, version 1.1*

nice concept, be patient with it

### 5/5 — Very cool app for SBU Students

*2021-08-24, version 1.1*

Heard about this app through a friend and a really sick concept. Tried it out and I think I’m hooked. Met a few people on the app already and they seem really chill. I love that it’s only Stony Brook Students on the app. 

One thing is that sometimes entering the pin doesn’t bring you in but figured out that all you need to do is force quit and re open the app.
