Community Voice & Feedback
This is is Awesome!
Meh
The app is nothing close to the website and very unorganized. There is no place to do discussions without taking you off of the app. Very hard to do homework from an iPad. I don’t know how this is so highly rated with the big confusion and all the redirection off of the app.
Mad chill fr fr
Half of the actions open in a browser window. The other half don’t work. Canvas is infinitely better.
This app is good for keeping track of your assignments and getting things turned in.
The only thing I complain about is when you finish an assignment it marks it on the app but then the day that it’s due it spams you with notifications saying that the certain assignment needs to be turned in, even though it says on the app that it’s complete.
I don’t want to turn off notifications because I need them but it needs to stop spamming with notifications! Fix please

Very convenient
Really makes college life a lot easier especially if you’re doing online.
It would be cool if I could use it!
I am constantly busy and easily distracted so this has been helping me so much to stay on top of assignments and deadlines so that I don’t fall behind in my classes.
I have used various platforms for school such as Google Classroom, canvas, etc. This has by far been the worse one. The set up is very awkward and hard to navigate to. It misses a lot of the helpful and user friendly features that canvas has. Often times Brightspace has course material hidden in a link that’s hidden in a folder that’s hidden in another folder that’s under a category. The navigation in Brightspace is atrocious and needs to be fixed.
Easy to use!!
I can’t download files from this app
Great app! Just wish it would let me open the grade or notification in the app itself, not my browser.
Love the app, but I would like if there was an email tool in it, or at least push notifications for emails. Sometimes I don’t realize when my professors reply back to me until 3 hrs after. But overall the app is great, I especially love the due date notifications being 2 days before rather than one, I only just realized it was two, so I would complete assignments right after I see it, which helps procrastination.
