Eastern Washington University for Android
Good on EWU for getting an app out. - The Good - For the most part, it looks nice. The interface on the main menu is clean and responsive. The app has /some/ useful points of information. - The Bad - Half of the menu options just take you to the website in your browser. The Canvas menu option should just open the app instead of just opening a link in your browser. I'm not sure what "Inbox" (or most of the other options, for that matter) is supposed to do inside of EagleSync. It doesn't pull from my eagles email. If it's supposed to be yet another message service, I'll stay far away from it. We already have our student emails, several other ways to communicate from EWU, let's not reinvent the wheel again. - The Ugly - If I could describe EagleSync in one word, it would be sketchy. It looks like it uses some old jQuery UI. Not to mention the utter lack of useful functionality. The sign in page isn't even styled. I hope it's at least secure, though I wouldn't be surprised from EWU's history if credentials were sent in plain text. - TLDR: Wait until the app is actually ready to be used. It feels like it's is half baked.
Would like to see email and calendar integration. Bookstore, dining services locations, websites, menus, hours. Music dept concert schedule. Theater schedule. Clubs and orgs info. Community engagement links. Keep out coming
I would like a link to my EWU email. Thanks!
The app looks like a really useful tool, but before I use It I just want to know secure it is. Does the app encrypt the users login information? (I don't wan't to be giving away my credentials through the phone network).
Clean, streamlined look! Offers easy access to multiple EWU sites without having to run a search or go to EWU homepage! Saves a few steps, even for the sites that require a log-in!

The user interface was a little hard to use, some of the things are geared to new students more then returning ones. More personalized to students and maybe a better way of showing the busses would be nice.
