Sun Devil Rewards – Sun Devil Rewards Review

Sun Devils Rewards is an app that will allow you to earn rewards for keeping up with the latest information about what is going on at ASU. Including news, game scores, shows at Gammage, upcoming events, as well as a Shop that will let you buy gear and tickets! And the best part is that the app is free!!!! Overall I think that the app is easy to use, and has lots of "extras." There are polls and trivia questions that after you participate, will give you pitchforks which can be redeemed in raffles to win tickets to events. There are also secret words scattered throughout that will also help you earn extra pitchforks. The icon for the app, to me, is a little bit cheesy. I think the idea is definitely there, but the execution is a little off. To fix it, maybe make the ASU portion a little bigger, and instead of highlighting in white, maybe some gold highlights. This icon feels a little like it was created in Paint, and then slapped together. The app clearly is designed for a user who wants to keep up with the latest and greatest information directly from ASU. The app neatly organizes (with pictures and the graphics are awesome) all news clippings with the newest listed first. I think that the thing that stands out most about this app, is that it is so interactive. AND I like that it has this addictive way about it. It makes me feel as if I have to search the website to find secret words, and that I absolutely should participate in the polls, which is completely genius! Especially because one poll asked me to share it on Twitter, and then it hashtagged it for me! So it could help ASU become a trending topic with the help of the app. The app currently has a rating of 4, which I would agree with, I think that it just isn’t essential enough to daily life yet. But I think if you could have users check in places to earn rewards like at the Startbucks at the MU, or if you take a selfie at an ASU football game you could earn rewards. Then that would also help create content for the app.
