Each connection below is planned rather than built. We say so on purpose: ask us which are ready for your pilot when you book a demo.
Planned connections
- Microsoft sign-in. Students sign in with their university account rather than a new password.
- Your timetable, from Syllabus Plus or Celcat. The app’s timetable shows the next lecture, the room and the walking time, and students can switch between today and the full week.
- Moodle, Canvas and Blackboard. A link from each timetable entry to the course site, so coursework stays in your virtual learning environment.
Apps it opens
Students can open your students’ union app and your halls apps from inside yours. Events on the app’s “What’s on” screen link to the students’ union’s app for its own listings.
What your staff add
Some of what the app shows comes from your staff, through the admin dashboard, rather than from a connection:
- notices, sent to a year, a course or a hall, or a combination;
- news for the home screen, with a photo, scheduled for the students you choose;
- guides, as PDFs and handbooks, which the assistant can answer from.
What we need from your IT team
For a launch: sign-in access, the connections we agree for your pilot and your App Store account. From the day we have them, the app can be live in 2 to 4 weeks; how long a launch takes has the steps.
Anything else
We add further integrations as you need them, under the same agreement.
