Ti*****

Constantly has errors, trouble submitting assignments. I downloaded this app because my professor required it. It works sometimes but VERY often displays an error message when trying to open and/or submit an assignment. The only option is to repeatedly close and reopen the app and hope that it eventually works. I often have to wait hours to submit a very basic assignment. The ratings given to this app are telling and if it weren't required for my college course I would not use it.

Pr*****

Wanted to use this app for my class but it does not work. In the sign in page it redirects you to the browser to sign in, but it doesn't go back to the app once you are signed in on browser. So effectively this app is a button to sign into Voice Thread on web browser.

Does not work on google chrome. Poorly optimized, an awful experience. Just use the base portal for the school you're working for, and have the students upload an mp3 or mp4 audio or video file, if it's that important.

Be*****

It is extremely frustrating to use for college assignments. It won't open from the link in the D2L app, instead I have to log in to my account in chrome and click the link from there to open this garbage app.

Ob*****

Your app says to allow for storage permissions, but there are no storage permission options in the system settings. Just camera, phone, and something else. So when permission to access the "storage" isn't granted, it just takes the user back to the request to grant storage permission. Fix it, please.

Ro*****

I had to get this app to see a class assignment when i wasn't able to use a computer. I saw the 1.5 and decided I didn't really have another choice. Absolutely the worst app I've ever used. It took three times for it to open without crashing, it doesn't connect to my account properly, and the ux is so bad I would rather have a chicken design it. Just make a mobile-compatible website please, I implore you!

Ty*****

The app through canvas if you go out and back in for the 2nd time would freak out and log you out rather than load the specific assignment. The microphone detection sometimes is poor, I nearly had my mouth touching the phone when it happened and it still had trouble. It's a good app when it works, "when" being the operable word.

Je*****

This is one of the worst app platforms in the history of apps. If I was not required to use it, for this one course, I would never have touched it. The app crashes constantly, won't load or play content, doesn't give status when uploading content, or anything any kind of professional platform should provide. Garbage.

Ra*****

This app doesn't work at all!! It keeps crashing and freezing. I can't go between sets of slides without it making me log in again. It won't allow me to open up lectures or submit assignments because it just locks up and I get an "app has stopped working" message. This app needs to be fixed immediately so that there is a working alternative to the PC version.

Sa*****

Regular glitching. I was briefly able to listen to lectures in my car or on the go. Now suddenly the app does not respond. I've tried re-downloading the app and restarting my phone. Nothing works. The error says the app is now downloaded on my phone but it very clearly is. When I re-downloaded the app, it wouldn't even let me get past the school look up. I am unable to access my lectures unless I'm on my laptop connected to wifi. Very frustrated with this app.
