## Review summary

User reviews indicate MyState is a mixed bag. The core bus-tracker (CyRide) feature is widely unreliable—arrival times are often off, routes may appear missing, and updates haven't fixed it. The app frequently crashes on startup or shows a black/white screen, sometimes after updates. Dining hall hours and other campus information are also reported as inaccurate. A smaller set of users still value the class schedule and other features when the app is functioning, and some approve recent UI updates.

### Pros

- The class schedule feature is helpful.
- The app offers useful campus information beyond buses (scheduling, dining hours) when working.
- Recent updates have improved the app's look/feel.
- The app is seen as an essential campus tool for some users.

### Cons

- Bus/tracker is unreliable: arrival times often off by minutes, routes appear missing or incorrect.
- Frequent crashes or startup failures (black/white screen, crashes on launch, after updates).
- Dining hall hours and other campus information are inaccurate.
- CyRide predictions no longer available or inconsistently reflected in the app.
