User Reviews

Users view myWGU Mobile as convenient for on-the-go access but plagued by reliability problems. The most mentioned issues are MFA/login failures, email access problems, update-induced instability, course content loading failures (often forcing browser use), and overall slow/buggy performance. These blockers hinder daily use, though some appreciate the app's mobile concept when it functions.

Pros

On-the-go convenience for accessing readings and course-related content via the mobile app.
Intended central access to course materials and tasks in one place (mobile-first experience).
Occasionally works well and provides a usable experience when issues are not present.

Cons

MFA authentication is non-functional, blocking login.
Email access not working or loading; email component unreliable.
Update-related instability: constant prompts and post-update breakage.
Course content/chapters not loading; material won't open or resets; content only opens in browser.
App performance and stability issues: slow, buggy, freezes, and frequent crashes; navigation issues.

Recent reviews

I find it be to very glitchy and slow. its almost like a web page didnt quite make it to being turned into an app.

Since the latest update, I've been unable to access any course material via the app. I can check email or schedule an appointment with my mentor, but viewing course material and textbooks doesn't work. I'll update my review if this gets fixed.

Poorly optimized app. You'll constantly get a phone notification stating that the app is frequently crashing in the background. Only way to fix it is to put the app into Deep Sleep or uninstall. Important functionality like reviewing task submissions and evaluator comments don't exist. It simply tells you to log into a browser.
