Ratings and Reviews
No more updates?
Just returned to app to sell my textbooks and the app seems to have not been updated for over 2 years according to the App Store. No wonder some stuff in there don’t work properly anymore. Tbf couple other things still work alright. All in all, the app was so much better 4+ years ago. Quite sad to see that it’s been left to this sorry state. 😔
Maybe try the website version instead of the app. Dunno if it would make any improvements neither, but it’s probably worth a shot.
Update: Yeah, tried the web yesterday and it’s heaps better than the app in terms of functionality and smoother user interaction. They need to fix and rescue the app ASAP so students can actually use it on the go, and not have to go long-winded on browser.
Needs an update
Great if you’re learning your way around campus however:
1. If you are not on campus and trying to work out your routes before semester starts it will automatically zoom in on your location and tell you how far away the room you are searching for is. I know where I am, I don’t need to know that the particular classroom I’m searching for is 7.3km away as the crow flies.
2. Mixed with above point - will only give straight line directions.
3. Don’t swipe away to another app on your phone as the app will then freeze when you come back to it, causing you to need to restart the app.
Pretty ordinary
Shows you buildings, etc., and your location but when you want to get from a to b, it just draws a straight line from a to b - doesn’t map the route you need to take along paths and roads like google or apple maps do. A geospatially-challenged person like me needs a turn-by-turn route to follow, not a line that goes through the middle of buildings. Finding it hard to use.
