Home (Dashboard)
This page describes what the RWTHapp dashboard contains and which functions you can use.
When the RWTHapp opens, you are taken by default to the dashboard (Home), i.e. the start page of the app. You can also access this page via the Home button.
You can personalize the dashboard by adding or removing functions. These functions are represented in the form of widgets. The following is a selection of available functions:
Step 1
To personalize the dashboard, click on the blue edit button.
Step 2
In the Edit Dashboard view, you can select the functions that you wish to add or remove. You can also use drag and drop to reorganize the order of the functions.
Step 3
When you are finished, you can select Save changes to keep your selection. You are also able to reach the dashboard from the navigation bar by selecting the Home button.
You can mark topics from the menu as Bookmarks. These bookmarks will then appear in the corresponding "Bookmarks" widget on your dashboard. The number of bookmarks which you can select is unlimited. As an example, you would be able to add the information about the University Sports Center to your dashboard by selecting the heart in the top right corner in order to bookmark it. If the heart is filled in, this symbolizes that the topic has been bookmarked. Select the heart again to remove a topic from your bookmarks.
The Weather widget displays the current weather in Aachen.
The Grades widget shows students the grades that they have attained in their exams. Entries are chronologically descending in order of date, with the most recent exams being shown first. Grades that have been entered into RWTHmoodle are not displayed here, but they can be accessed via the "Moodle" function in the navigation bar and selecting "Grades" in the respective course rooms.
The Calendar widget draws data from the calendar function and displays up to three appointments from the current week.
