Very helpful, Penn State has so many random apps and this is a good place to find everything you need!

Fairly glitchy. Enough to be a wash as far as convenience goes... isn't that supposed to be kind of one of the main purpose/function of mobile applications? It is what it is...

Please make logins persistent. It's so annoying having to login with 2FA every single time I use the app.
