## Review summary

Nearpeer for College has a strong concept to connect campus peers by interests and help social transitions, with potential for finding roommates and forming groups. However, users repeatedly report stability and UX issues: frequent glitches and slow loads, unreliable notifications, and a confusing interface with limited search options. Some note missing majors and filter gaps. Overall, the idea is solid, but execution problems hinder widespread adoption.

### Pros

- Great concept to meet campus peers and connect with others by interests
- Helps with social transition for freshmen and transfer students
- Useful for finding roommates/suitemates and forming campus groups
- Facilitates meeting people within your own college community

### Cons

- Persistent glitches and slow loading, often resulting in white screens or crashes
- Unreliable or duplicated push notifications, making conversations hard to follow
- Poor UI/UX with a confusing layout and limited search options
- Incomplete data such as missing majors (e.g., theater) and limited filters for colleges
