### 1/5 — Glitchy and unusable

*2023-01-25*

The idea of this app is nice but unfortunately it does not work :( 
It was completely fine last semester, but now every time I try to login to UBLearns, UBHUB, and MyUB, it shows a blank screen saying: “services unavailable”. 

It’s really just a shortcut if you don’t want to go through the internet to login to your school account, but still inconvienent…

Bummer

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2020-03-04*

We need a site that alums can use that isn't so overly hard to use. Why so overly secure? We just want to check up on our classmates!

### 1/5 — Broken App

*2019-12-09*

Every time I open the app and log in, it just shows a blank page and doesn’t load. It used to work, but now it’s absolutely useless.

### 2/5 — Needs a lot of Work

*2018-08-25*

Super glitchy, many links are broken, user unfriendly. It’s nice to have everything in one place, but it does not work properly enough to be extremely helpful. With some updates it would be much better:

### 4/5 — It's very good

*2016-09-11*

Really, I just wanted to be the only 4* rating

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2015-12-04*

Terrible app

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2015-08-24*

Badly designed app..no optimization for iPhone 6/6plus. Hanging, freezing at regular intervals

### 3/5 — Very helpful.

*2014-09-18*

Helpful and convenient—"What's Open" module is buggy and often shows inaccurate information.

### 3/5 — The app is just ok

*2013-09-13*

The app is good, the maps are helpful and it's nice to have all that information in one place, but it is vet glitchy for me! The blackboard full site link just takes me to a white page...in fact a lot of the links do, I get blank white page on the app all the time. Also, a lot of the links just lead to websites, so it's not really all that much more convenient than having all this pages bookmarked in my browser!

### 1/5 — Not very good

*2012-12-18*

It doesn't do anything but give me static pages.  Tie this into realtime bus schedule.  Let me order food from it.  Needs more live data.
