Is Piazza legit?
⚠️ The Piazza app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
My have a lot of classes using Piazza..
Thing is I always don’t like piazza because this thing doesn’t work on both iPad and iPhone. I can see my classes only on the web. Whenever I want to use it in my phone or iPad, my lessons are either disappear or asking me to re-enrol again and again and again... This problem existed since last year when I started my Uni studies.
please fix the problem
If there’s a zero star that would be my rating for this app. No offence, but it’s just that this mobile app really useless.
Bad update
App crash every time I try to open it after the latest update. Please fix it!
Completely Useless
I have given up on trying to use this app. Every time I want to use it to look at Piazza on my phone, I try to log in only to get vague “Please authenticate” errors. I then try to authenticate by going down and authenticating through my institution (horrible UI by the way - why even have a sign in if won’t work without a completely separate sign in). But yet, this doesn’t work either - I successfully sign in only to get stuck at an “Authenticating” page.
As it is, even once in, the app is extremely buggy and crashes often. It seems like it’s mostly an embedded webpage of Piazza, which is already an unstable and bloated web service.
So, as I said, I’ve given up. I just sign in through Canvas on my phone now and look at the embedded Piazza page there. It’s definitely not ideal, but hey, nothing about Piazza is.
app is way worse than website also add dislike button
hate how you cant see the amount of good questions like in the website. also the ui is lowkey doodoo unlike the website where you can actually scroll properly. also add dislike button for when someone replies to your question with the most useless response ever.
I hope you like signing in
I hope you like signing in every single day because piazza sure likes when you do.
Worthless
The only feature of this app that’s worth your time is number on the icon that shows how many unread posts there are at a glance.
Beyond that:
- it crashes often as soon as you hit create a post
- it will let you spend minutes writing a reply, then delete it with an error message when you hit post.
Looking through the reviews I’m puzzled as to why Piazza has not fixed these problems. One of my students could do this as a summer project.
FIX THE UPLOADING OF PICTURES
I have never found an app this badly made and yet so widely used. It’s slow and although it shows information that is useful sometimes the cons out way the pros. First of all why is it that when I upload pictures it either doesn’t work or takes years. And not only that why are they only distinguishable by DATE. Literally code them by pic 1 and pic 2 would be infinitely more useful. Why would you choose this. Also why is everything so slow. Like seriously.
Complete trash
The app constantly logs you out, and trying to log back in is a hassle. Not worth what I paid for it, and I paid nothing
App keeps crashing whenever I try to click on a post
..
2023, but they still can’t afford decent iOS devs
The app was bad to begin with, but somehow it became even worse in the past couple years. To the point that I feel compelled to write a review.
It’s very sluggish, unresponsive and buggy. It takes at least two attempts to log in every time (with the new way of logging through the institution’s auth system). When tapping on a question/note, sometimes it just wouldn’t load. The editor is obsolete and very inconvenient (try typing a LaTeX equation in there, with switching keyboard layouts to type those double $$ signs). It lacks some of the features of the website version, like seeing if someone likes a comment or a post, or some options that are available for instructors.
The list goes on. If you care about your product, please redesign and refresh the mobile app.
