Comments on Blackboard for Android

★★★★★ T Motiuk · Aug 12, 2026

It's a school app, probably depends on how your school sets it up, but it works well, some notifications bug out but most apps do so anyway 🤷‍♀️, (people complain too much) it works well, easier than having to use another format (laptop/school computer/website) to check grades.

★☆☆☆☆ Sharron Pittman · Sep 4, 2026

I guess this app isn't really suitable for Samsung Galaxy phones. When click on courses and try to go to my current course it changes to a white screen. Same thing when I try to access messages.

★☆☆☆☆ Elijah Kuntz · Aug 23, 2026

The app no longer functions. All classes are stuck on a white screen and nothing loads.

★★☆☆☆ Nicole · Aug 6, 2026

Honestly it's just easier to use the website because I constantly get errors when trying to load a course. "Something's not right."
