The old black board was better... the new one, where you redirected to, doesn't make it easy to download. .. and where does it save the files? You say direct assess and read and downloads but the download part does not work....

I would be much happier with app if it was an inclusive aid rather than redirecting me to the other apps and the internet, Its basically just a link list...

After a year and multiple requests to add a link so we can view our marks, still no improvement. C'mon UP - you are a leading, world-class university!

Please enable us to view our marks! The other links and stuff are great, but a link to the Student Centre would be awesome. Thank you for this app, it's great, but please include our marks. Thank you x

Tuks Varsity is a reputable institution this should also reflect on their mobile app. They should updste their user interface - this it the 21st century. They should also include a link to view your marks, Their maps should provide more data. I could go on and on but, bottom line is it's well below average!

Could use some updating. Please improve widgets, e.g on announcements, keeping logged in, etc.

Big shortcoming: This app should be able to give you access to your final marks! Otherwise good app. Does what it promises, but could have been so much more. A good start though. I'd like to see the university building on this idea and improving the app.

Has limited functionality - news, calendars, emergency info and a bunch of links to their main site - UP is a University, we're here for academic purposes - works only with modules ported over to new clickUp and can't explore their Libraries - it only links to their main site. It could have been a much better app, but instead it is just what every other university has, look a bit at some of the other university apps, they are all the same. Do some research about what students need. This app should have been something unique to TUKS, where a student logs in, sees his/her picture, be able to access there class schedule, give feedback to lecturers, instant summation of all their marks, mobile friendly views of there modules, allow students to do group discussions, and allow lecturers to view those discussion and feedback. Another example, a lecturer could quickly use the app, go to the relevant module and post a note to the students that he'll be 5 minutes late, or to remind them about a test and the notification comes up as a push notification on the students phone. The possibilities was great, but honestly there was no innovation here, it is nothing more than a me too app.
