the new version really sucks... the weekly calendar is repetitive and not straight forward at all. The previous version works fine. why is the old version still not up?? I believe the methods that have been changed didn't have strong guarantee... that's why it takes so long.. luckily, I didn't update portal on my iPhone after I've seen the new version here lol. The old app still works on my iPhone

I loved the old Portal app, so useful and convenient. Deserving of a five star rating, for sure. This new version? Not so much. Most of the useful features have been completely removed in favour of a "clean UI." I will gladly restore my previous review once the old features are all back.

My go-to app for campus life and the amazing events going on out there. Some features that have been of tremendous help to me are: A) It lists out all the upcoming registered events so I don't have to go the portal website and/or merge my Google Calendar there. B) It provides links and descriptions of all the researches and publishings led by UWaterloo students or professors. That serves as a moment of pride and drives me to work more. C) Analysis of weekly weather reports helps a lot. Cheers!

It's a fine app. Issues with loading sometimes. I like the calendar/schedule and the fact that it can be exported. I wish we could manage event registrations from our phones; it's a hassle to need a computer on you to cancel or register for an event.

App does not open in the most recent change/update. It just gets stuck saying that an error has occurred and doesn't tell me why. It is ironic that this University is so focused on tech, yet it could not make the app run with the most recent update.
