Kind of awful

Worked for a day really well but now it won’t load past the open screen. Gets stuck on ‘loading map data’. Would be a very functional and useful app if it worked.

Response from developer

We’re sorry for the trouble you’re experiencing. We know how frustrating it is when the app stops working. Around the time of this review, higher-than-expected traffic related to the CatCard launch caused loading issues for some users, including getting stuck on the loading screen. Since then, stability improvements have been made. The app now supports CatCard management, library space reservations, and notifications for upcoming appointments, reservations, and registered events. We appreciate you sharing this feedback and are continuing to improve reliability.

Not loading

App doesn’t load. Currently can’t use it.

Response from developer

We’re sorry you’re having trouble accessing the app. Around the time of this review, we experienced higher-than-expected traffic related to the launch of CatCard access, which caused temporary loading issues. Since then, stability improvements have been made. The app now allows students to manage their CatCard, reserve library spaces, and receive notifications for appointments, reservations, and registered events. We appreciate you sharing this feedback and are continuing to improve the experience.

August 2025 Updates - Give this App a Chance!

I was afraid to download this app because of the bad reviews, but it seems they’ve listened to feedback and put in a lot of work to make the app user friendly and functional! I can access my detailed class schedule, upcoming appointments, and even see accurate maps to help with navigating to my classes (if you select to view directions it will take you to your map of choice, in my case AppleMaps). There are a lot more amenities to this app but I want to keep this review concise. You have the option to have your digital CatCard in the app, which is convenient (I personally prefer my physical card though, and you cannot have both options at once currently). The app looks sleek and minimalistic, runs fast and efficiently (sometimes it starts up a little slow, but it still loads up within a minute). All pages and maps load properly, website redirects links are not broken, and the app has clearly been worked on recently. As of this review 8/25/2025, as a UofA student starting today, I recommend this app. I will update the review if my opinion changes for the worst! 🐻⬇️ Thanks for reading! 👏

Just like the school

This app is absolutely garbage and all employees dont do their job and tell you to use the app. Which would be fine IF IT EVER WORKED. All positive reviews are from faculty, they are told to give a good score because no one wants to do their job freaking job anymore.

Response from developer

We’re sorry for the frustration you experienced. On the day of this review, we launched CatCard access in the app and saw an unexpectedly high volume of traffic, which caused disruptions across our systems. Since then, stability improvements have been made. Students can now manage their CatCard, reserve library spaces, and receive notifications for appointments, reservations, and events. We appreciate the feedback and are continuing to improve the experience.
