User Reviews

UR Mobile offers helpful access to university services like bus schedules and useful information when needed. However, it primarily serves as a portal to webpages and other apps, some of which are not mobile-friendly. Users express concerns about its unnecessary permission requests, which pose privacy risks. Overall, while improved in recent updates, users tend to use the app infrequently, indicating its functionality may be limited in daily use.

Pros

Useful when needed, especially for university-related information
Provides easy access to certain services like bus schedules
Improved performance and timeliness with updates

Cons

App mostly acts as a collection of links to webpages and other apps rather than offering standalone functionality
Some linked pages are not mobile-friendly
App requests excessive and unnecessary permissions, raising privacy and security concerns
Not used frequently by most users, suggesting limited day-to-day value

Recent reviews

Much improved with the latest updates. More timely, faster.

Uninstalled because I never used it in 3 years as a grad student, and it wanted to update and was asking for a boatload of unneeded permissions. This app should not need to access my identity, photo album, wireless connection information, and full network access. It is a glorified browser for web pages. Please stop abusing people's lack of attention to app permissions to snarf unnecessary data. If you really aren't actually using those permissions, don't have the app request them - it's an unnecessary security hole in case of a vulnerability in the app.
