### 5/5 — Best app

*2025-02-14, version 3.0.1*

After 10 years, still the best WVU app out there.

### 5/5 — Great application

*2016-11-10, version 1.7*

This is a great application and the ability to see dining hall menus and the PRT Status is great.

### 5/5 — Best WVU App Available

*2016-02-11, version 1.5*

I've been using WVU Mobile since it was made and introduced. I knew some other WVU related apps but never really wanted them because honestly they looked ugly or not well designed. This app looks great and works great and the PRT and Bus options have helped me more than anything. Whether you're a freshman or final semester senior, the app is worth it.

### 4/5 — Does the Job

*2016-02-11, version 1.5*

I pretty much only use the app to remind myself of when the cafe closes and to check to see when a bus is coming. However, this app has miscommunicated information about the buses before. Also, the information about where the buses are/when they were last updated can get very confusing. Nonetheless, for the reasons as to why I use the app, it mostly works well.

### 1/5 — It keeps crashing

*2016-01-13, version 1.5*

I really want to be able to use this app but it keeps crashing on me! I'm using an iphone 6 and have the latest updates so I don't know how to actually use the app! 😭😭😭

### 5/5 — Love at First Swipe

*2015-08-11, version 1.5*

I'm loving the new updates with the bus route shape, the switch to Google Maps and the new look and feel in the Dining section. Great work!

### 5/5 — 💩

*2015-05-02, version 1.0*

This is waaaaay better than the app the school originally recommends. The PRT utility is a life saver!

### 5/5 — This App is Amazing!

*2015-04-27, version 1.0*

Why this hasn't been done yet is beyond me. It has all of the most important info about campus available in one conceited area. Definitely a must-have for any wvu students, particularly Freshman.

### 5/5 — You Da Real MVP

*2015-04-26, version 1.0*

The look of this app is the definition of sexy... dat beard tho! I especially love the clean look of the Night Mode. The triple tap feature to access it from anywhere in the app is so convenient!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2015-04-24, version 1.0*

I saw a presentation earlier this week showcasing this new app and I have to say, it’s awesome! It is refreshing to see such a high quality app designed by students and that more features and updates are going to be supported soon.

I would recommend this to any student at WVU! Seriously, download this app!
