Texas State University and Modo have launched a new mobile app designed to deliver a seamless, unified digital experience for students, faculty, staff and campus visitors.
Built on Modo’s mobile- first platform, the new app represents an evolution from the university’s earlier homegrown solution, providing a modern, scalable foundation that meets the needs of today’s onthe- go campus community.
The TXST Mobile app brings essential campus tools into a unified experience layer, powered by Modo and designed to be the front door to campus life. With native features such as push notifications, GPS-enabled navigation, and personalized dashboards, users can easily access the services they need. Integrations with Banner SIS and Canvas — cornerstone systems for academic success and student involvement — bring academics, engagement and daily campus needs together into one seamless, connected experience.
“Our goal was to modernize how our community connects with the university,” said Sandy Pantlik, vice president of the Division of Marketing and Communications.
“Our previous homegrown app helped us get started, but expectations have grown. With Modo, we can now bring academics, engagement and essential student services together in one cohesive, mobile-first experience that supports our community wherever they are.”
Developed in collaboration with Modo, TXST Mobile allows the university to consolidate digital touchpoints while enabling consistent growth across both mobile and web. Modo’s low-code platform gives TXST the flexibility to build, iterate and expand experiences quickly — without relying on extensive development resources.
“We are proud to support Texas State University as they advance their digital engagement strategy,” said Andrew Umans, general manager for higher education at Modo.
“By moving to a unified, mobile-first platform, the university is delivering an experience that meets users where they are — on their phones, on the go — while setting a foundation for long-term agility and innovation.”
ABOUT THE TEXAS STATE MODOPOWERED MOBILE APP
TXST transitioned from an earlier homegrown app to Modo’s unified, mobile-first platform to provide a more stable, scalable foundation for digital engagement. Since becoming a customer in February 2025, the university has focused on creating tailored experiences for current students, faculty, staff and campus visitors, supported by a growing set of integrations including dining, transportation and campus maps and navigation, safety resources, academic tools, athletics, news and events, parking, student billing and more.
The app connects to key campus systems such as Banner SIS and Canvas and uses Modo platform capabilities to deliver a seamless experience layer across campus.
