Useless App

Ambassadors don’t reply and there is no option to report them

Login Doesn’t Work

The app keeps logging me out. I tried logging in and it said wrong username or password. To which I restarted my password and changed it twice and tried logging in again. It simply wouldn’t work. The only way I can access the website now is through the university invitation email because somehow my account details stayed logged in. The app needs some adjustments as soon as possible. I cannot connect with ambassadors and students when I need to.

Can’t log in

The app suddenly turned blank with a lamp and saying that my device was offline. I deleted and reinstalled the app and found that I couldn’t login at all as the app has “encountered an issue with the social login” when pressing the sign in button. Underneath this pop up advises to try closing and reopening the app. Inputting login details doesn’t work either and pops up with “undefined” and resets the password box. I have repeatedly reinstalled the app, restarted my phone, checked my wifi, checked for updates (none at this point) and yet this problem still persists.

When searching for solutions online I found neither helpful nor useful advices from the official site, such as checking for updates or checking as to whether the correct email is being inputted.

Code Not Sending

I downloaded Unibuddy and added my email and password, I then waited to get sent a code for me to put in from my email but I never got sent it. And I’ve tried a dozen times.

And yes I’ve looked in my junk mail.

Easy to use, fun, valuable info

Super easy to use -- overall, a fun experience that made me even more excited about going to my top school in the Fall. I got way better info from the current students in two days than I had in two months of looking at their website.

Opening the App & Constant loading screen

At first when I downloaded the app, It was easy for me to log in & access my messages and all, without having any issues with the screen loading. But recently, whenever I want to go on the app to look at any messages I received, the screen just shows a lamp & I have to wait a really long time for the screen to load. This causes me to uninstall & reinstall this app. This is like the 5th time I had to uninstall & reinstall the app.. Can you try and look into this please because this is a major problem.

Hi there, this issue is now fixed! Please try again and you should be able to upload your profile picture with no issues. Thanks for letting us know!

Please fix the font colour in the updates channel in dark mode!

Fairly self explanatory but when the app is set to dark mode the font in the updates channel is very difficult to read. Please could this be fixed, thank you!

Hi, we're sorry to hear you're having issues. We have recently fixed a bug where profile pictures weren't loading so hopefully that's working for you now. We'd love to speak to you so we can figure out what's going on with your account and why it appears you're being locked out. Please contact us at support@unibiddy.com so we can try and help!

Picture Pixelated, Lagging frequent

Please fix the quality of uploading the profile pictures as it ruins the experience of the app, and fix the lag of using the app as it prevents any texting.

Hey there - thanks for your feedback. We agree with you! We've now added pronouns in the profile area for all users.

Very clunky

Only opens properly first time after installing. After that it just shows blank screen forever so have to keep deleting and re-downloading. Very frustrating as once inside the app is really useful and easy to use, just has problems with opening.
