Illinois Customer Insights

1. I ignored the issue at first but later when I opened the app again it showed the privacy screen and the button to continue wasn't working.

2. This app is the worst!!!!! Unusable!!! Either fix it or bring back safer illinoisWhen I first opened it the net ID button wasn't working.

3. Still shouldn't have had to do this, and it took me until December to figure that out.Safer Illinois worked better for building access.

4. Though even when it was working, the information the app gave was consistently incorrect or outdated.Doesn't get past initial loading screen.

5. This issue also occurs with the "safer Illinois" app, so I assume it is a similar system issue.

6. The app is great for campus life and such, but it just doesn't work well to lump in all the COVID-19 platform items.Doesn't work on my phone.

7. As a replacement for safer illinois, it's garbage.

8. What.....?! To add insult to injury, the place to provide comments in app doesn't allow me to type.

9. The app goes on a permanent loop between the get started screen and the net ID login page for me and it seems several others.

10. Every time I open it I get stuck on the loading screen.

11. Luckily the Safer app is still running in the background and can give me a notification.
