Eagle One

Campus life, all in one place.

Dining, shuttles, coursework and campus alerts, arranged around the day you’re actually having.

Eagle One’s home screen

An independent app for one campus, built by a student who got tired of checking four websites to answer one question. Nothing here is official, and nothing here is guessed at. It reads what the university already publishes and lays it out the way a day actually runs.

Everything about your day, in one place.

Dining

Know what’s for dinner before you walk over.

Every hall, every station, every meal period, read straight from the dining service and laid out the way you actually decide: by what’s open, what’s close, and what’s worth the walk.

Shuttles

The bus, where it actually is.

Live vehicle positions and arrival estimates for every route, so you leave when you should rather than standing at a stop guessing.

Coursework

Deadlines, beside the rest of your day.

Assignments live next to dining and transit rather than in a separate app you have to remember to open.

Alerts

Campus notices, and nothing else.

Shuttle service notices from TransLoc and short campus updates from Eagle One, delivered as they land.

Your day

One screen that answers it.

Dining, shuttles, coursework and alerts arranged around the hours you’re actually awake for.

And a few decisions underneath all of it.

Built around a timetable.

A campus runs on hours: serving times, headways, deadlines. Everything here is sorted by when rather than by category, because the question is almost always what’s available to me now and not what exists in general.

Reads what’s already published.

Dining menus and shuttle positions come from the sources the university and its transit provider already put out. Arrival times combine TransLoc’s estimates with Eagle One’s own predictions, and the app says which one it is showing. Where a source is quiet, it says so.

No account to create.

There is no sign-up, no login, and no password. Your courses and favourites live on your device.

Independent and unofficial.

Eagle One is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Boston College or TransLoc, and it is not a source of record for anything.

Your schedule is nobody’s business.

Eagle One has no account system. The courses you add, the halls you favourite and the routes you follow are held on your device and, if you have iCloud on, in your own private container, one that belongs to your Apple Account rather than to me. It never asks for a university login, it never sees a grade, and there are no third-party analytics or trackers in the app. One small service of mine supplies the shuttle arrival model and receives anonymous records of when shuttles reach stops, with no name, account or location in them, and you can switch those off in Settings. Location, if you allow it, sorts what’s nearest, is kept only on your device, and is never sent to me.

What that means in practice

  • No sign-up, ever
  • No third-party trackers or analytics
  • Delete All Data removes it from your device, and from iCloud while you’re signed in

Built by one student, end to end.

Interface, data layer, the scrapers that read the dining service, the caching that keeps it quick on campus wifi. All of it is mine. Every decision here was made by somebody who has to use the thing at eight in the morning, in the rain, deciding whether the walk to the far hall is worth it.
