Used as a student for college, and this is by far the worst app I've had to use for my education. Unlike it's competitors, the mobile app doesn't allow for most of the functionality of the desktop experience, often having to redirect you to the mobile site that's equally flawed. Content (including urgent notifications) can take over an hour to produce a notification. I'm told the professor/teacher experience is somehow even worse. Edited

It does what it's supposed to, and it's done reasonably well. It would have to over deliver for 5*s. It is nearly a 4* app, but there needs to be a way for it to recognize when work is complete so it stops notifying you about things you've already done. It's annoying af to get multiple messages to remind you to do something you've already done, and it makes me want to shut off notifications completely, but that too would limit it's usefulness. *sigh*

Was an ok app for a while, but with the new update it makes you log out and then log back in, but after you do so in in the pop-up window, the link that reads "return to pulse" seems to just refresh the page rather than actually returning to the app. When manually navigating back to the app, it doesn't know that I've just logged in. I can't access any of my classes through the app now, which is fine because there's a fully functioning website, but maybe fix a few things before forcing an update.

The app is great at taking care of needs. However, there isn't a link to directly access the email, which would be convenient. The reason for the low rating is the lack of a "create event" option for assignments that are not directly in Brightspace (be they in another program or in-person). This feature did exist at one point and removing it proves to be majorly inconvenient.

This app has really brought my academic career to its highpoint. It is an amazing to keep organized and up to date. That is, when it works... As fall 2017 semester progressed the app slowly started to break down. First not letting me access some class info and now culminating in constant crashes. I only hope it will be back up by spring. Edit: I REALLY miss when this app worked. It literally is useless right now.
