23 August 2024

We are enhancing the way UCL staff and students access applications with the new Application Store, underpinned by AppsAnywhere.

The UCL Application Store is an online web-platform designed to simplify how you find and access university software.

What’s changing?

  • Applications will no longer be pre-installed on desktop@ucl computer workroom computers but instead will be streamed ‘on-demand’.
  • Launching applications will be through the UCL Application Store portal - https://apps-store.ucl.ac.uk
  • We will be able to offer greater software accessibility and flexibility, ensuring equity of access for our students.
  • We will be able to provide access to an increasing number of applications whether on or off-campus, ensuring a seamless user experience. 

When will this happen?

How does this affect me?

  • On desktop@UCL teaching computers, you will access applications through the UCL Application Store portal. 
  • Login to the UCL Application Store to check that your teaching software is available in the portal. We already have a library of 400+ applications, and we are adding more every day.
  • Please submit a MyServices request to let us know about software missing from the portal.
