★★★★★
You can make the app runs normal again by reinstall. The private key was stored as a QR code image on phone during the first installation. Rescan the QR code to restore the health history records and building access. I wish we have a roll back version in case the latest release of the app went wrong.
★★★★★
It seems to be mostly working with respect to integration with the on campus saliva testing, doesn't drain my battery, and has been released in time to save some lives. 5 stars for that. Hopefully future versions will cut down on some minor bugs regarding manual test result entry and integration with SwiftKey.
★★★★★
For me, this app has been completely seemless. I'm not sure why I didn't have the same issues others were, it might be because I have a Google phone. I have a oneplus 8 and everything worked very well for me.
★★★★★
Works well. Very useful tool to help in slowing the pandemic and with keeping the community safe and the UofI open!
★★★★★
The U of I has done a great job with their covid response and this app. Next step will be to include vaccination information (which they have said is coming).
★★☆☆☆
Will not upload my data from UI testing sites, even though I have seven negative tests from UI. Leaves me in default status unknown/possibly exposed /denied status Using a LG V30 phone.
★★☆☆☆
App gets stuck in an infinite loop of Get Started -> Receive Notifications (I chose Yes) -> Share My Location (I chose Yes) -> Who Are You (University Student + Illinois Resident) -> Log In with NetID -> Get Started -> ... The app only lets me continue to the main screen if I don't select log in with my NetID, which seems like a major oversight as I won't be able to track my test results. Not sure if this issue is caused by Shibboleth, but it isn't working for me as of 08/13/20. On the plus side it does provide testing locations and times, but the app needs to be more than a glorified web link.
