Over 200,000 students just like you use Top Hat to engage and interact with their professors and lectures. Now, you can take classroom engagement to the next level with our completely redesigned iPhone application. Use Top Hat to ...
On my iPhone 5s the answers are clipped off at the ends Not showing the entire answer makes them difficult to answer Fix this Cant view entire answers on my device
Orientation is stuck to page as opposed to landscape and inconvenient when i am docked False notifications in menu Floating answers and questions from past sessions that make little to no sense and unable to clear them Buggy
these rates are dumb for a minute but required interaction with a class yeah no
Im forced to use this for just one class even though my university already has a widespread clicker program so Im already irritated that I have to pay extra to use this app because Top Hat has somehow convinced my professor that bleeding her students dry is ok But I could handle that Its only an extra 25 to be able to get full credit in one class right Except the app crashes Constantly On the latest version of the newest Apple product Its ridiculous Its hard to answer questions during class when the app will crash for apparently no reason multiple times during class Not to mention that when possible answers are long instead of using a wrap feature this app simply cuts off the ends which makes answering correctly just that much harder Terrible app terrible company Consistently crashes
The program fills a great niche but the iPad app is relatively lowtech and not very well ironedout The screen doesnt rotate when you rotate the iPad This may seem trivial but if youre taking lecture notes horizontallylandscape format with the iPad on a standcase its really awkward and annoying to HAVE to pick it up and reorient it every single time the prof decides to require TopHats use This should hopefully have a pretty easy fix and not be too difficult to remedy The answerresponse system seems to be flawed too though In previous classes using other programs such as PollEverywhere theres a different degree of control and variability to the classroom answersubmission process Daily in class the teacher will ask a question and upon revealing the answer all the sudden the incorrect submissions will start disappearing and filling in the correct answer This seems like a problematic approach to allow answers to be changed after submission The teacher should be able to freeze responses so as to learn what concepts havent I communicated clearly enough etc Its very nice that the program has the feature of allowing you to follow along with the PowerPoint slides Thats really good and helpful Now if only it could rotate to the same orientation as your screen if you use landscape instead of the fixed portrait orientation Serves a purpose but very flawed
Overall a good app I think it could be made a lot better if you got a notification when the teacher asked a question Good App
I love it Great
Awesome Great
My iPad sits in landscape mode while in my keyboard case Every time I open this app I have to break my neck just to read the text in tophat Please add a landscape feature Thanks LANDSCAPE MODE
This app is extremely helpful My professor prefers to use and honestly it works really good while Im in class submitting answers Very good app
I am forced to use this app by my uni instead of using a damned clicker Only because I cant give 0 stars
This is just another way my university found a way to waste my money Unbelievable Terrible
Basically schools way of squeezing more money from you after you bought a student response clicker App crashes many times and is full of glitches Bad app
Easy way of taking and tracking attendance The fee is reasonable but we are still poor college students Also in 2 years of school this is only the second class Ive had to use it Not too bad
Everytime I used it they asked for a review Well here it is Annoying
This app is horrible my university already has a well established clicker that many classes use But have to buy a 25 app or just one class Its not right for the professors to get their subscription for free Many students are already paying 200 for a book and now paying for an app is just insult to injury The only good reviews of this app are from professors that dont have to pay for it Ridiculous
Works okay There are some really stupid things like the inability to use an iPad in landscape mode Wow I really cant think of another app that does not have landscape mode Pathetic Also Why must I press submit for EVERY SINGLE QUESTION This is really annoying for me to actively think about doing and takes my attention away from thinking about the quiz Dont forget to submit Dont forget to submit Tell your teachers not to use this Its expensive for students and not user friendly stupid
I really enjoy using this app but recently there is a bug that kicks me off as Im doing my assignment I dont know if its cause its lacking the iOS 9 app update but whatever it is can you guys please fix this bug Great App
It is great for class Good
Really useful resource in testing students knowledge about course topics I wish more professors would make use of this appprogram Great tool
Lack of landscape mode is frustrating for an educational setting If the app focuses on discussion posts and other typingbased functions how is portrait mode practical Awfully impractical
Unreliable unnecessary and more of an inconvenience than help Waste of money
Great app for classes Top hat
The Top Hat app has automated students responses to daily warmup questions Syncing feature makes transfer to the grade book so easy Works in Small Class
This is one of the most poorly designed and inconvenient software Ive ever had to use At all costs do not download this app Unbelievable
perf
This app crashes every time I try to use a third party keyboard At first I didnt know why it kept on crashing and I missed an attendance because of it CRASH CRASH CRASH
Yet another way to profit off underpaid and overworked university students 25 a semester smh Ripping off students
The program concept is good The actual real life thing is junk Great idea
On questions that require a short answer it wont display the sentence until after its submitted This is annoying because I dont know if my sentence has a mistake or not because it cant be viewed at that time Needs to fix an issue
It is an app that is very confusing to use and doesnt correctly portray all grades Dont like it very much Top Hat Review
Awesome way to interact in a class setting Excellent
I use this for class and have enjoyed the ease of use of this app It helps my professor helps is even if I am sick by sending us the class information even if I am at home Smooth Sailing
Please add a landscape mode Great but needs landscape mode for iPad
Expense not worth product UofU already has a online system that works better Teachers just need to use what is available instead of making costs increased for students Not very good
This was a waste It was bad timemanagement during class and inconvenient with wifi Wish it had notifications when the app wasnt show on the screen Über Dislike
Easy to use so far No problems So far so good
App crashed every time anyone clicked on the review tab Then the update fixed it to where you could open up the review tab to see the readings for class but now it just crashes when you click on the assigned reading Really annoying when it is asking you to pay for something that does not work for 97 of the class Also wish it would remain rotated on Ipad instead of just on the home screen Buy it if you want the app to crash on you every time you open it Updated fixed crash to crash at on second click instead of first
No auto correct Almost there
Rarely works and is very slow Often will struggle to submit an answer just to give a unable to send after the question has closed Ditched this app and now text all my answers This app is terrible Slow and rarely works
Much better than turning technology clickers The only flaw is the lack of landscape support Great teaching tool needs landscape support
I had to get this for my college class no idea why this stupid phone clicker costs 24 a semester I could program this crap in a day Overpriced useless app
Useless Useless
This version crashes whenever I try to answer a discussion Im also not a fan of the interface and the side bar Not great
Top hat is a great way to engage in class Its fun to me Only thing is its a waste of money Im already a broke college student n more expenses is not what I need It should be cheaper Student
Pretty awesome interactive tool I wish that it would turn to landscape from portrait on my iPad Also it would be nice to be able to download the in class slides onto Notability for better note taking Almost There
Very simple and easy to use Makes learning fun TTU STUDENT
Books and tuitions are already super expensive for college students and now I have to spend 2436 on an APP Ridiculous LOWER THE PRICE
Expensive unnecessary program that leeches funds from poor college students Overpriced
Forget that noise this is garbage 24
