Review summary

Across reviews, users report stability and login problems (crashes, launches failures, random logouts, Android 14 issues), a non-native, browser-like mobile experience with an old UI and missing features, as well as rendering issues for LaTeX/MathJax and Markdown. Some praise exists for basic usability and a few call Piazza 'great' or 'nice' for simple tasks, while dark mode is repeatedly requested and appreciated. Connectivity limits off-campus and no push notifications are common complaints.

Pros

Some reviewers say the basics work and the app is usable.
A couple of reviews describe the app as 'great' or 'nice'.
Dark mode is appreciated by some users.

Cons

Frequent crashes and launch/login problems across devices (including Android 14) with random logouts and occasional inability to open the app.
The app feels like a browser wrapper rather than a native mobile app, with an outdated UI and missing mobile features.
Rendering issues for LaTeX/MathJax and Markdown, plus problems with post content not rendering correctly.
Persistent login issues (must log in repeatedly or have SSO problems) and unreliable session handling.
Off-campus usability is limited and push notifications are not available.

2025-09-30	Ma*****	There is a glitch in the app that started when I opened it today. It flashes and it it impossible to enter any text to make a post. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, and restarting my phone. There have been no updates to the app, so this is new behaviour after a long period of stable usage.
