| 2023-12-01 |  | | Very helpful, Penn State has so many random apps and this is a good place to find everything you need! |
| 2023-08-18 |  | | 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... |
| 2022-09-12 |  | | Please make logins persistent. It's so annoying having to login with 2FA every single time I use the app. |
| 2022-07-12 |  | | Having to put in a two factor authentication every time I log into anything is tedious and negates the whole purpose of having an app that can access everything in one place. Logging in once on the app itself should then give a student access to everything without having to log into everything again every time. If I was actually on campus this might be more useful for events or meals, but as a World Campus student I'll likely only occasionally use this app, if at all. |
| 2021-03-14 |  | | I can't buy food everytime I try to order it tells me to sign in after signing in it erases my order and I have to choose again when I try to order it tells me to sign in again. It's the same whole process am tired, I haven't been able to order anything since morning. |
| 2020-09-22 |  | | Need to sign in with 2FA every time; after signing in, still need to pick campus. Not user friendly. |
| 2020-09-02 |  | | One of the worst designed apps I've used. The menus link to the wrong places and it's all a waste of time. |
| 2020-08-24 |  | | The need to login for everything in the app is annoying. It is a great idea, it just needs some refinement. |
| 2020-08-20 |  | | It would be nice if the app could actually save your login instead of forcing users to use stupid duo push every 10 seconds. |
| 2020-08-19 |  | | Doesn't do anything, no log in prompts, just a spinning wheel.-Galaxy s9 active.. |
