Dear UP community,
We are pleased to announce that we have applied significant updates to our University of Pretoria UP Mobile App, with the updated version scheduled for release today, 16 August 2024.
One of the highlights of this update includes a single sign-on system to access the fluid PeopleSoft applications. We have also reorganised the content sections, refreshed the look and feel of the design, and provided UP emergency contact details for your convenience. Please be aware that not all the portlets are currently available but we will add them in the coming weeks. Kindly contact [email protected] if you have any queries in this regard.
Since the main users of the app are staff, students, alumni, prospective students, guests and JuniorTukkie learners, the app content has been reorganised to suit each of these groups based on historic user statistics. This update is a joint venture by the Departments of Information Technology Services (ITS) and Institutional Advancement (DIA), with the aim of providing our end users with a ‘Campus in your pocket’ experience.
The project forms part of the University’s ongoing digital transformation strategy and aligns with our institutional focus on improving customer experience and customer journey for our main stakeholder groups. Ultimately, we want the app to provide the right information at the right time to the right audience.
If you have already downloaded the UP Mobile App, please look out for the changes. If you have not downloaded the app before, please do so from the Google Play or App Store apps by searching for “UP Mobile App” or “University of Pretoria”.
We would also love to hear from the app’s users – so please send feedback on your UP Mobile App experience by using the feedback button provided inside the app.
Make today matter, and help us build the UP Mobile App you want to see!
Regards,
Rikus Delport, Director: Institutional Advancement
Xolani Radebe, CIO and Director: Information Technology Services
