What this app is. What it isn’t. What you could build.

One-liner

A mobile app for University of Oklahoma students, faculty, and staff to access campus resources, class schedules, and university news in one place.

Strengths

Provides quick access to real-time class schedules and academic calendars (review: 'Great for checking my class times on the go')
Integrates with OU's student portal for grades, registration, and financial aid (review: 'I can check my grades without logging into the web portal')
Offers campus maps with real-time building access and event locations (review: 'The map helps me find classrooms during rush hour')
Delivers timely alerts for weather delays, emergencies, and campus events (review: 'The storm alert saved me from getting caught outside')
Well-organized layout with intuitive navigation for key services like parking permits and library access

Weaknesses

Frequent crashes during peak hours (review: 'App freezes every time I try to log in at 9 a.m.')
Outdated UI design feels sluggish compared to modern apps (review: 'It looks like it was made in 2015')
Notifications are inconsistent or not delivered (review: 'I missed an important email because the app didn’t push it')
Limited customization—users can’t reorder or hide modules they don’t use (review: 'Why do I have to see the bookstore every time?')
Poor search function for campus events and resources (review: 'Searching for a club meeting returns nothing')

Opportunities

Build a lightweight, faster alternative focused only on core functions (class schedule, grades, alerts) with modern UI/UX
Create a customizable dashboard where users can pin only the features they use (e.g., drop unused modules)
Add offline access to class schedules and academic calendars for students in low-connectivity areas
Integrate third-party tools like Google Calendar sync or Apple Health for wellness tracking tied to campus events
Develop a companion app for non-students (alumni, parents, visitors) with simplified access to campus info
