Ratings and reviews

Used to be "Okay". Now it's literally useless. Ever since the last update the app has been acting weird. Slow and laggy, crashes almost every time i use it. Shows old classes I'm no longer enrolled in, although the desktop version shows the correct classes. Takes ages to load. No audio during lectures (permissions granted via system). Just please fix this thing and for the love of god give us dark mode.

I missed a quiz and I almost missed a midterm exam due to the application not sending me any notifications about neither of those two tests. I am hoping that this gets fixed soon, it does not send me any notifications of announcements or assignments or anything in general. This is a big issue and a large amount of students are using this app for their education. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

This app is borderline nonfunctioning. It does not let me sign in properly half the time. When I do sign in, I am greeted with another mysterious signin page that doesn't work. The one time I was able to access the actual Blackboard, almost nothing loaded and I was unable to view anything. My organization uses web sign in and an requires MFA with an authenticator app. Blackboard failed to send the push request to the authenticator.
