Extend campusM URL schema to launch iOS, Android OR web app
Hi,
Given that campusM is device and platform agnostic. I would like to be able to use the campusM URL schema under a tile to provide mobile/tablet users with the option to launch a mobile app (iOS or Android or prompt to get the app as is now the case) AND also provide the option to go to a web app instead if preferred.
This would give users choice. For example, Outlook 365 and Blackboard web apps have far greater functionality and have quite a good responsive design for small screens. Mobile/tablet users should be able to choose if they…

widgets
Please add widgets as a feature e.g. next timetable event, next bus etc. Many apps now feature widgets and this will increasingly be the expectation of users of the campusM product.

Faculty Student Real Time Communication
The heart of student engagement should be the enablement of direct and real time faculty to student communication within the explicit context of a class. Think class cancellations, room changes, emergency notifications, assignment reminders, including quizzes, homework, and exams, last minute class changes and updates, and any important information that the instructor needs or would like to communicate in real time. In addition a communication framework like this would allow students to opt in and communicate with each other as well for classroom discussions and group work without having to disclose their own phone numbers. I am basically proposing a…

Integrated Search
Since our product has launched we have been receiving positive feedback of the search capabilities. Many across the community really like the power of the search, which is a real selling point for adoption. We would like to have the search box more front-and-center to showcase this wonderful feature.
Some members have also commented that on the computer verson of our campusM portal, the search feature is buried within the drop down menu to the right hand corner.
We propose a UI change to make the search always visible inside the web view, I believe this would be a beneficial…

Allow roles to be assigned at the pocketguide content/link level
Roles are only available at the tile level. This has presented challenges to how we can organize content and is putting incredible pressure on our home screen real-estate.
We cannot organize into hierarchical buckets and are forced to organize around roles. Breaking up content does not help the user's experience. If we make multiple tiles to target each at a role, then we have redundancy if a person carries both roles.
Additionally, some links are not critical enough to warrant a first-click presence and should be nested.

Push notifications for new emails
It'd be really useful for our users to know when they have a new email either as a push notification or as a little notification on the email tile itself. Currently, users have to go into the email tile and then refresh their emails to see if anything new has come through.

Personalised Service Outage Page
The error page that is displayed to students in the event of a Service Outage needs some work to make it useful (if this ever happens again).
If possible it would be more useful to have a University branded page that provides our students direct links into our core underlying applications ..... such as LMS, Student Management System, LCS and also contact details for our Service Desk.
The message that the service is currently available with no other calls to action or options was not helpful to the student population.

Links to a map
As an app user, I would like to be taken directly to a map, so that I can view the map for a specific area rather than having to choose the map from locations for the area I'm interested in
It would be good to have a link like this:
campusm://uniloc?posCode=XX
But that instead opened the whole map.

Change spellings according to the App's location in the UK or US
In the campus map, under Categories, Favourites should be spelled Favorites for US-based apps. We've noticed spelling errors like this in other parts of the app. This should be automatic, it should not have to be requested every time we notice a "misspelling" for our user-base.

Even a position’s longitude and latitude given by the web service, the native directory search component can only perform a Google / Apple M
Even a position’s longitude and latitude given by the web service, the native directory search component can only perform a Google / Apple Maps search based on the text of the address which is on the service. As a result of it Google / Apple Maps
returns wrong result. It would be great yo use position’s longitude and latitude.5 votes -
Allow the List View to be saved as the default view
The "arrange" feature allows users to view the tiles as a list, but when they leave the arrange menu or click "Done", it goes back to the tile view. Especially for visually impaired users, I think the list view might be more usable, so it should be able to be saved as their default view.

Mark notifications as read
It would be very practical for the user to be able to mark all unread notifications as read (not delete them), with a single click.

Auto-focus into searchbox after clicking Search Icon
Is possible to give the search bar focus after you click on the icon to open it? It is somewhat annoying to have to click on the icon, then click on the search bar before typing, especially on the web.

Customised start day for timetable (internationalisation)
Currently the timetable starts on a Monday, but there are 19 countries in the world with a Friday/Saturday weekend (including this customer!), and a couple with Thursday/Friday weekends. This makes the Monday start day completely incompatible. Please consider adding this option as a global option for the organisation in App Manager, similar to how Google Calendar deals with it (see attached).

Support time-sensitive alerts to help students filter the signal from the noise
Both iOS and Android support a feature to that allows notifications to be flagged as 'time-sensitive'. This allows users to specify how these types of notifications from specified apps are handled, overriding the current default setting, allowing them to filter the signal from the noise. In the case of campusM, 'How did the University do in the REF?' (Noise), 'Your lecture has been moved' (Signal).
