Blackboard MyConnect for Negative User Reviews

✓ Apple - Get this app out of hereIf I could give this zero stars I would. Get this crap out of this Store!.@VinDawgVersion: 1.5

✓ Zero stars. This app is a joke right?I feel like I’m being punked and my email just got sold to a million 3rd parties..Anthem100Version: 1.5

✓ Just installed & immediately crashedCan’t even type a utility name before it crashes, crashes, crashes..JRMWBVersion: 1.5

✓ DOACrashed as soon as I search for an institution.WHOKMOVersion: 1.5

✓ Absolute junkCompletely useless. Don’t waist your time...Olbr64Version: 1.5

✓ Poor siteFirst I couldn't find my school under the institutions. Had to type in Matanuska-Susitna just find anything. After all was said and done, the only thing listed was my contact information. No calendars, attendance or curriculum...would be nice to have access to this information. As usual anything the MatSu SD tries to do online is inadequate and not user friendly. It's a shame considering the content is regarding our children. And the lack of information given to parents from the teachers who are teaching our children...concerning really..Sara18422Version: 1.4

✓ No thanksDeleted within five minutes of downloading. Not intuitive as other reviewers have stated. I do not have time to sit here and try to figure out how to use this app, it should be straightforward! After all, so many other apps are..VonnieSwedeVersion: 1.3.1

✓ What a third rate AppFails you from the first interaction. Who is the product owner for this junk. The village would be better off using more of the Facebook app for more edge cases and sign up for an SMS provider for emergency communications.Amir Khosrow SheibanyVersion: 1.5

✓ DO NOT RegisterI never received log on verification in my email after several requests. So app is useless and now they have my email address. For what purpose???.Dlh19968Version: 1.5

✓ Wish I never downloaded thisTried to set up an account, it said my email was already in the system, but offered no way to reset password. So I set up an account under another email account, got in, but then it doesn’t find any of the institutions I want alerts for. Their search function seems to be useless. Now I’ll try to close the account. Good luck to me..Betsy808Version: 1.5

✓ Poor quality. Terrible UI.Our county started using this service but it's app is completely useless. I can't believe our county's emergency managers chose such a poor app to communicate with the community. I sure hope our county doesn't pay for this garbage service..Wisc75Version: 1.4

✓ CrashesIos 16.5 everytime I search it crashes?.DaNo-50Version: 1.5

✓ Waste of time and probably a SCAMI signed up for this app at the behest of my daughter’s school for all of their notifications. Since then, my password isn’t working and there’s no “forgot password” or customer service link. Nothing. I’ve tried every password I can think of. I’ve tried deleting and reloading the app. I’ve tried setting up a new account, which it blocks, saying I already have one. I’ve tried emailing Blackboard with no response. This is truly a terrible app and a total waste of valuable time. Extremely frustrating and useless in the most basic terms..DesignwenchVersion: 1.5

✓ Not Useful at allHow can you have an app without a way to reset your password when forgotten? Why have the app?.EvolvingOpalVersion: 1.5

✓ PrimativeThe app has a very simple UI that forces the user down a small number of paths to get things done. NOT suggested for mobile use because it actively checks its internet connection and logs you out when it decides it can't get online even for an instant. It does have auto-re-login (a feature that should not be necessary with proper connection timeout defaults) but upon re-establishing connection, whatever data you may have been entering is lost. The user must use their email address to log in, so they have that contact point. The user may also add SMS, phone and TTY contact points. This last is presumably why Blackboard are awarded government contracts. Push notifications are treated differently than SMS, voice or TTY notifications, which is confusing. Emergency alerts are hard-wired to alert all your contact methods and cannot be changed. Although some thought clearly has gone into this app and the infrastructure that supports it, it is clear that they have a way to go before customer satisfaction can be achieved. Disclosure: These are initial impressions given the moment after I signed up. I only have a relationship with one of the supported organizations..CantormanVersion: 1.4

✓ Waste of timeThe app keeps crashing I can’t even complete my user information. Whenever I hit next the app shuts down. Whenever I search for a community the app shuts down..LmnhopqVersion: 1.5

✓ No stars. I only put one star because I was forced.This app is not helpful at all. Just go on your schools website, it would be a much better use of your resources..Elizabeth BeattieVersion: 1.4

✓ Can’t even loginEvery time I login it says connection lost. I gave up.Tabatha24Version: 1.5

✓ Not user friendlyNavigation stinks and it’s just not user friendly. Make edits and changes to subscriptions (schools) is a pain..S Rich10Version: 1.5

✓ This app is horribleYou can’t reset your password... The last time I was in it didn’t load the information and it’s hard to navigate through..Mrs. Kia DavisVersion: 1.5

✓ OC is in troubleThis app does not work!!! If Orange County Ca is going to use this app to notify people of an emergency, a lot of people will not get the notification this app is supposed to provide and many lives could be lost! The County needs to find another app that does what it's supposed to do!!.EbstusVersion: 1.4

✓ Rediculous don't bother!I live in a big city, Santa Clara,bordered on even a bigger city, San Jose in Silicon Valley, CA. No local universities or high schools were on the list. I even tried City of Santa Clara for a community attachment and nothing there Deleting this app now.LondonBritchesVersion: 1.4

✓ Ugh!I NEVER write reviews but this app is so useless and frustrating that I had to comment. Signing up was easy enough as was finding my town, but then it all went south. I can’t select any emergency notifications and when I try to do it on my laptop it doesn’t accept my password. sticking with it I try to reset my password only to be asked security questions I’ve never set up. An hour of my life I’ll never get back and am still not on any notification list.ArkrkrkekVersion: 1.5

✓ Terrible appWorked fine for a couple of days now can’t access anything. I wish people would quit making worthless apps and wasting my time..DianalcbVersion: 1.5

✓ Terrible; uselessUseless app; I’ve never before written a critical review but this app is really bad. 1) the app has no password recovery, so I had to create a new login using a different email. 2) things just don’t seem to work in the app; for instance, when I enter my address the app ALWAYS crashes and closes. No error message, just closes. But the address is required. 3) app doesn’t provide a way to delete former addresses..Stranded and lostVersion: 1.5

✓ Waste of timeI rarely leave reviews for apps but felt compelled to do so for this one. Totally useless and not worth the trouble it takes to sign up. Just go to your local news or school website, much easier!.GaineybelleVersion: 1.4

✓ Worst appDifficult to navigate then it still does not set up for proper notifications..Barry WarnerVersion: 1.5

✓ CrashesCrashes when you search for an institution..LlaaaaVersion: 1.5

✓ Not feeling the loveGreat concept. Got invited to join by my community. Spent far too long trying to get signed in. Kept crashing. Went through the tutorial but it still didn’t help. Needs a major reboot..Indie90Version: 1.5

✓ Login screenMight be a good app. No way of knowing since its impossible to hit the log in button with the keyboard in the way. Don't you people even try the app on your own phone to see if it works before launching it?.Dennis 1010Version: 1.3.1

✓ Why did I bother???This app is a total FAIL!!! Despite all the other bad reviews I downloaded it to be part of AlertOC community emergency notification system. They were going to use this app to notify users with emergency information - test day came & went. I received no notices from the city even though I subscribed to them. Additionally I set the app to remember my login and it did for about 3x. My login info disappeared and stupid me didn't write down my password....and there is no clear way to recover or reset my password. So, I'm locked out of an app that is intended to help out in an emergency and that failed to provide any communication during the city's systems test run. "FREE" is still too expensive.DADDYCAKES®Version: 1.4

✓ Not obvious interfaceJust signed up, no alerts yet, but signing up was a lesson in patience and guesswork. I never figured that part would be so frustrating. But I'm in, and after more misses, finally figured out how to sign up for an alert. whew. exhausting....CRHsoCalVersion: 1.4

✓ Loved this app, but it suddenly stopped workingLove this app but it’s suddenly stopped working and I can’t get help. Please help me..SkydobVersion: 1.5

✓ Not worth the effort!This app logs out and shuts down randomly, can't find anything in my area and is a huge pain in the rear to set up. Totally not worth the time and effort. Removing it from my phone today!.Talks+2Version: 1.4

✓ TerribleTerrible app. Doesn’t work. Searching function is awful, can’t click on emergency notification option when I eventually did find what I was looking for and the app crashes every few minutes. Completely useless..Iceraider_12Version: 1.5

✓ Useless!I can’t even register to use this app on my iPhone. The app puts its own keyboard up in a way that covers up the link to click; once I enter my info to register there’s no way to get out of that screen except back out, which erases all the info I just entered! Dead end! No use!.SurfchapVersion: 1.5

✓ Poor Navigation and moreFirst - navigation stinks. Try to search. Once you enter the Search feature, the only way out is to kill the app. More annoying, the requirement to have your iPhones Location Services on to use the app. I have an older phone and Location Services is a drag on the battery life. If I have subscribed, what does Location Services have to do with getting school generated alerts? Where I am, or the app knowing where I am at that moment, should NEVER keep me from getting an alert. I will stick to web portal through my child’s school system website. Highly disappointed user..2AVDVersion: 1.5

✓ App & Online problemsThe app won’t let me log on anymore, it keeps saying my password is wrong. When I go on their website & hit “Forgot password” it gives me a security question to answer & that question is not one I picked out, I would never pick it out. Then the one I do recognize “Name of first pet?” When I put the answer in it tells me I am wrong. It only gives those two questions so I have no way into my account..Missy5311982Version: 1.5

✓ Can’t unsubscribe!The app won’t allow me to unsubscribe. So I’m trapped getting daily alerts at 12am even though I’m 6000 miles away from the area of concern. There is no way to email to get help or opt out..Abbbyyyyyy2019173Version: 1.5

✓ The worst appCan’t find my sin’s school despite following the directions several times..TYG1964Version: 1.5

✓ Still waitingStill waiting for the confirmation email...👍🏻.Paul BankVersion: 1.5

✓ CrapNo good way to search for your town.Ughh21009876Version: 1.5

✓ WorthlessDon't waste your time installing the app. It's more trouble than it's worth. You don't even have the ability to select an institution (for the city you live in). There is no point at all for this. You're better off following up on breaking news events off Twitter..BaddixiedogVersion: 1.4

✓ UselessI couldn’t even find my academic institution..Shadowkiller7746Version: 1.5

✓ Can’t set it upI registered but when I am trying to set up my institution it asks for “reference number and contact info on file”. What does that mean? I tried every number and contact info that I could think of that might be “on file”. Nothing worked, so I can’t set up to get alerts from my college..SonamdolmaVersion: 1.5
