Blackboard Mobile Learn™ App Reviews

Works 1/2 the time.

Really Annoying. Will log me out and tell me I have input the wrong password, when its correct.

Completely Unusable

It just blows my mind how such a huge company whos consumers are COLLEGES & COLLEGE STUDENTS cant make a better app. Obviously kids want to check their grades on their phone. This apps budget must have been less than $10. So many bugs it is just completely unusable.

Pathetic

I dont have the words to describe this app-the support exists simply because it is required for education. I truly cannot wait for the day that I can delete this garbage.

Unreliable

Freezes up, doesnt display content the majority of the time.

Good (if it decides to load)

The app is fine, but 90% of the time it either takes forever to load or doesnt load at all

Good enough

It gets the job done. All I care about is viewing the documents and reading in the go. Only issue I have to constantly exit or reload in order for documents to open.

Paid for application, now useless.

Was hoping for future support of this app but seeing as theres a new one I feel like my money was wasted. My current school doesnt even support the new app. Dont bother getting this app either. Had a lot of potential, no support either. Dont waste your time or money.

Useless crap

Over 5 years, nothing has been improved, nor updated. Dont install this crap, just go to your blackboard on your safari. A pile of dirt is more useful than this app.

Blackboard just doesnt care enough to value quality

Why can it never load my class. I have to open it 3 to 4 times before it refreshes and shows. Ive been using blackboard for 3 semesters already, and the problem has never been fixed. Come on blackboard!!! Its been a year and a half. Get with it! The update may never come and thats pathetic. Youre an online class setup that cant operate a mobile app. Im sure everyone with classes registered through blackboards are sitting in front of their desktop utilizing your website, and definitely not using iPads or other tablets so I get why you wouldnt TRY to develop a functional app.

Horrible

Literally loads maybe 5% of the time. The other 95% its completely useless because you cant see anything.

Its ok... You just need to update it.

Im gonna give this app the benefit of the doubt - only because its easier to sign into this app than it is to sign into the BlackBoard on my schools site. This app just needs to be optimized for current apple products. Every time I sign on, I feel like Im looking at an iPhone 4/5. I have an iPhone 6 and an iPad Air 2, so its an eye sore when looking at the interface. I think Im being fairly reasonable in my review. I dont think that bashing the app is going to help me or any other current user. But on the same token, as a consumer, I do expect something to be done about this app unless the app developer is working on a whole new version of this. To the developers: Get it done! Ill update my review when this happens!

Problems

I downloaded this app like 3 weeks ago, I enjoyed it until today when my online class documents arent popping up. Im a little discouraged because I paid to use this app and now all of a sudden it doesnt work for the one class I need to access the most

Poorly designed app

Constantly logs me out and continuously fails to show content.

Terrible

Keeps kicking me out every time I use it.

Logging In

I wish I wouldnt have to log in every single time.

Could be wayyyy better!!

First the app is really slow. It takes forever to load things or pull them up. On top of that some days the whole app doesnt wanna open or itll force shut down while Im trying to load something. Im better off just using the web to get on blackboard. Please fix because if it werent for those issues it would be a really great and useful app.

If youre a prof, I wouldnt bother

A nice looking interface and some useful features but seriously constrained on a number of essential tasks, e.g. Cant edit folders and other content areas, cant access grade book. Unless you want minimal functionality, dont bother.

Its alright, could be more efficient

My biggest issue is that the app doesnt have Touch ID for those who have iPhones. Or it could save my username at least, because its really frustrating when I have to re-enter my info every time I exit out of the app.

App needs updated ASAP

So Glad I did t have to pay for this

After update doesnt work

Wont open but still shows new notifications but doesnt take me anywhere but a black page with a loading sign but goes nowhere
