## Review summary

Penn Mobile offers essential campus services in one, well-designed app (laundry, room reservations, dining hours, courses) and is especially helpful for freshmen. However, persistent login/authentication problems, API connectivity failures with unreliable data, and crashes undermine reliability, with occasional compatibility issues on older devices. The app's feature-rich scope makes it valuable when it works, but stability is the main barrier to a consistently positive experience.

### Pros

- All-in-one campus services: laundry, room reservations, dining hours, and course info.
- Easy-to-use, well-designed interface.
- Dining hall menus and other campus information that improve convenience (long-awaited menus).
- Particularly helpful for freshmen or new students and reduces the need to visit PennInTouch.

### Cons

- Frequent login/authentication issues: prompts to login or inability to stay logged in across sessions.
- API connectivity failures causing data unavailability and error popups such as Could not connect to Penn's API, leading to stale or missing information.
- Crashes and unreliable performance: app crashes, never loads, and data inconsistencies.
- Compatibility issues on older devices/OS (e.g., iPhone 8, iOS 10).
