Safer Illinois replaced with this?

Illinois, which was always clunkier and slower than Safer this app, has now entirely replaced it. First of all, it is broken. The screen shows only “initialization failed” for every member of my family. Secondly, it conveys less information than Safer this app. There is no way to see either your... Show more

Fix the app and then we’ll talk

Worked great for the first 2 or so weeks of the school year, but now will not load whatsoever. I would like to know what’s being served in the dining hall before going there, and other than that, Illinois in general has little use for anything else. Fix it and I’ll update my review.

Worse than safer Illinois

Clunky to use and there is no way to see your test results without using mymckinley. Much worse than Safer app, very frustrated. Please add an easy way to see test results like Safer had.

Building access feature is trash

Imagine you download a app just to have you redirected to another website that doesn’t sign in automatically lol

Glitch on opening pages

There is a glitch within the opening pages of the Apple App which does not allow you to continue into the information portion. The page appears as though it is fluttering and then causes Illinois to freeze up. The only way to clear it, is to swipe out and reopen. Even tried deleting and re-downloa... Show more

Bad app

It’s just a whole bunch of clunky junk just to view test results. Really makes no sense with this. Illinois is bad. Also the tracking is definitely a no go. I value my privacy of where I go get that off there.

Update ruined the app

Nothing in Illinois works! The buttons don't work! The digital icard just disappeared! I walked all the way to the testing center to realize that the icard isn't on Illinois anymore which is so frustrating. Now I have to carry my wallet with me which makes Illinois totally useless.

App is Completely Broken

Illinois only says "Authentication Initialization Failed" for me. I keep clicking the try again button but it doesn't work. Safer this app is gone and its replacement is non-functional. Please fix this as soon as possible, I can't even get into Illinois anymore.

Crashes

How the hell is uiuc a top ten university in engineering and sciences but students can’t rely on a basic app to work for them!!!! This is embarrassing😂 I’m very disappointed especially because you guys deleted the other app we would use for dining. School starts in like two weeks hopefully it’s fi... Show more

Not functional

It won’t even load past the startup screen. Illinois really needs work if they’re going to force a switch from the safer this app app (which does work) for things like building access.

Where are my COVID test results?

In order to get my results, I have to login to the McKinley Portal, but after doing 2 factor authentication, nothing happens and I am not logged in. There is supposedly a place in my settings where I can “toggle” to have results delivered to Illinois, but I can’t find that in the settings. For COV... Show more

Safer illinois >

Safer this app was way better. Why do we have to click on each individual test and log in every time. I just want one page with all my test results which is easy to access so I don’t come to class with a positive test because I was too lazy to login and check my test from the night before (this di... Show more

Terrible user interface

Illinois leaves a lot to desired. If I click on “submit feedback” the next screen displays a message that “we have blocked web pages” or something similar. It is not possible to offer comments. Additionally, getting COVID test results now requires a second login and 2FA steps which are cumbersome.... Show more

now harder to access test results???

Ever since the switch from Safer this app to the this app app it takes so much longer to access your covid test results. I hope there are plans to include the recent health history tab that quickly shows you your test results like there was in the Safer this app app. I like the idea of combini... Show more

Can’t even see meal plan balance anymore.

Building access used to be simple as well. you click it and it pulls up your. Now it opens a browser page where you have to sign in nearly everytime… totally defeats the purpose of having an app ffs… And no matter how many times you sign in you won’t be able to check your meals left/credits left be...

Crashes constantly and can’t sign in

Downloaded app because I haven’t received my ICard yet and I wanted to get tested. Downloaded Illinois and it crashed my phone and my roommates phone. Uninstalled and reinstalled it and the NetID sign in button doesn’t work. I set up the rest of the settings then tried to add the NetID later in th... Show more

Broken

Every time I open Illinois it gives me a message that says “authentication initialization failure”. I can’t do anything else on Illinois no matter how many times I press “try again”. Please fix this ASAP

Great when the app works

Illinois won’t even open on my iphone. Whenever I use Illinois on a friends phone, it’s got some useful information.

Lots to Fix

I was able to fix the broken NetID buttons by changing the default browser to Safari (which shouldn’t have to happen). Meal counts still don’t update without signing out and in again.

Privacy control is wonderful

Finally, I feel I have control of how much of my privacy I can trade off against useful functionality. If I change my mind they remove data based on my new privacy level. Any time I choose, they will remove all my personal data. This is a breakthrough way of dealing with my personal information. Th... Show more

Not fully operational

All of the features do not work on Illinois so you cannot even register/login. Then it crashes.

wont even open

stuck on loading screen and won’t even open

Useless

It crashes down all the time.

Completely Broken

Anything you do will crash Illinois

What happened??

It used to be so great, and then a few days ago it just stopped loading! I don’t know what happened :( please fix it

This app is a joke

After several use Illinois won’t login anymore. There is no way to enter the main menu.

Crash

Takes you longer to get Illinois to work than just walking over and seeing what food is being served. Go back to the precious dining app PLEASE!!!

Enhanced out of operation

Totally non operational.

Amazing App

Whoever made this jawn better get a Harvard scholarship and a top job as a google IT Exec ASAP
