GET Fails to load | Stuck on Blue Screen
9/17/2021 - UPDATE
CBORD has released GET Mobile V4.9.27 Patch to iOS and Android on Thursday September 16th for Apple and Google devices. The main purpose of this patch release is to correct the potential stuck on blue screen issue. The end users may need to update their settings for this new version.
Some people have reported an issue after upgrading to the latest GET mobile app where the app will not launch fully and remains stuck on the blue GET logo splash screen even after force closing. This appears to only affect those using the face or fingerprint unlock for the app. The developer has a fix in place that will be pushed to the app stores later in the month (Sep 2021).
The immediate fix is one of these actions:
1 - Use Pin unlock if your device gives you the option to bypass the face ID or fingerprint authentication. (This is usually for Android users)
2 - Uninstall/reinstall the app for either iOS or Android
3 - For Android users you can go into your apps list. Select the GET Mobile App and clear the Storage (Data) and then set the app up again. Setting the fingerprint or face unlock does appear to work after this step as well.
4. Disable Face ID in ios. In Settings, find the GET Mobile APP and turn off Face ID
We apologize for an inconvenience this may have caused.
Why did my GET Order Fail?
Meal Plan swipes are charged at the time the order is submitted to a merchant, which is typically 15-20 minutes before an orders due time.
If you order on Monday for Thursday, you will not be charged for the meal swipe until the order is submitted to the merchant on Thursday.
If you had already used up your weekly balance of x-change meals or depleted your Bronze, Spooner or DINE|NMU plan swipes before that order gets submitted to the merchant, the order will fail.
Orders not ordered ahead may still fail in similar fashion, as the meal plan swipe failure does not happen until your order is submitted to the merchant, which happens after checkout.
There are various reasons your GET Order may have failed.
- You are out of your weekly balance of X-Change Meals
- You attempted to place more than 2 X-Change Plan orders in 1 day. In person and GET orders count against the X-Change plan cap of 2 orders per day.
- You depleted your swipes available for Bronze, Spooner , or DINE|NMU plan swipes before the order was submitted to the merchant
If you feel your order FAILED in error, please forward your Failed Order email with your NMUIN and why you believe the failure was made in error to get@nmu.edu
