Why limit yourself to your small screen on the phone? Run myUniBo, an app by Università di Bologna, best experienced on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, the world’s #1 Android emulator.
myUniBo comes across as a tidy, workmanlike student companion that keeps the boring but necessary stuff in one place. The timetable feels clear and simple, with lecture days laid out and quick details about each class like building, floor and room so there is no last minute scramble. Booking exams and checking grades is straightforward, and the area that stores past and upcoming exams is easy to scan. There is a planning tool with filters and reminders that helps keep track of what is still to be taken, and the calendar makes it simple to spot exam clashes or a busy week at a glance.
Notifications and an inbox for professor messages show up when schedules change or results are posted, which cuts down on surprises. The stats page gives a plain readout of average grades, degree base and the share of credits earned so it is not necessary to do the math by hand. Contacts for the programme office, student administration and tutors are all in one place so finding who to ask is faster. On a PC, using BlueStacks makes clicking around and reading timetables easier than on a tiny screen, it feels more like using a lightweight desktop tool rather than a fiddly phone app.
