Ratings and reviews

Since the last update it has lost all of it's convenience. You used to be able to choose whether to insert images from the camera or your file browser, now it redirects you to the file explorer every time. The UI has downgraded, looking like a worse version of the mobile website. The app has lost all of it's convenience over the mobile or desktop site.

This is a clunky LMS. Even though it shows you all of your grades assignments, it has no calculations being made that produces a grade for your class. Additionally, the calendar functionality for the assignments can use a lot more imporvement. Overall, I get alerts to my phone about updates so that is a nice feature. That's about the most usability that I've got out of this app yet, the UI however definitely has room for improvement.

While it's not perfect, it's probably the best app form of any course management software I've used in my last 10 years of academia (Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle). The wide availability of camera-based document scanners on smartphones makes scanning homework to a .pdf and then uploading directly to Moodle without ever having to leave my phone a welcome change. Thank you, Moodle.
