Mobile Apps for Hub@QMU

Blackboard Mobile Apps Launched for Hub@QMU

 
Mobile apps are now available for Android, iPad and iPhone devices.
The mobile apps afford a number of benefits for mobile access of the Hub especially communication and notifications, but it is important to note that there are also some things that the apps cannot do. Guides and recommendations for students and tutors, together with a list of the different apps’ respective functionalities are available here: http://www.qmu.ac.uk/cap/Hub/mobile.htm

The apps cost $1.99 per year or $5.99 for lifetime use. UK prices are dependant on the current exchange rate but equate roughly to £1.50 and £4.50 respectively. The apps can be downloaded from the Google Play Store (android) or App Store (iPad and iPhone). After downloading the app you should search for Queen Margaret University and it is at this point you will be charged if you wish to complete the purchase.

The Blackberry app is not available for Hub@QMU.

Please note: the apps are an add-on to the core web-based Hub functionality and in this respect are not essential – you do not need an app to take part in or complete your programme of studies. The Hub is generally accessible from any mobile device without an app; however ease of use of will depend on the screen size of the device and the browser capabilities
