Extremely Buggy on IPad

I appreciate that they even have an app because I don’t have a computer and only have my iPad but it is very frustrating. It crashes every 15 minutes and It takes me twice as long to get through the MCQ because it crashes so often. If I switch apps for 10 seconds just to change the music it will close out of everything and take me back to the home page.

Unlimited Practice question freezing issue

Unlimited practice mcq on mobile app worked really fine until June 2021. Suddenly it does not work. Things i tried to fix.
Im using iphone 12 and up to date software
- turn off and restart my iphone
- sign off and log in again
- delete the app and download again
- turn off wifi and change network setting

Eventually it still does not work.
Lecture and everything else works fine

I hope you guys can fix it soon so i can use it for my upcoming exam. Thanks

Love the Portability!

There is only so long you can handle studying at a desk, but with this app you can listen to lectures, do MCQs, and even study with flash cards. The only glitch I’ve noticed is when your taking a practice test with simulations it won’t let you review your test. Other than that I love this app!

App update creates errors

After the recent update, I cannot tap on an option anywhere on the lower right side. The app thinks that the More menu is open——the one asking Flashcards, Performance, Find Question, Download Manager.

Even when the menu is closed, the app acts as if I’m selecting one the above four options. Therefore, I cannot navigate to something as simple as F7 -> Section F5 -> MCQs or Supplemental Qs.

Please fix this.

Practice tests still broken

I’ve been using the app for a couple years now and the practice test are STILL BROKEN. You can start one but once started, even answering all the questions, there’s no way to end or submit the test. All that time wasted just to not see your results is really frustrating.

Response from developer

Hi. You can end the test, but unfortunately the "End Test" button is not immediately visible on some devices due to the limited screen resolution. You have to scroll left on the white bar at the top of the screen, and you will find the "End Test" button to the right of the "Overview" button. We will try to address this on a future release. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your feedback.

Great but can be better

May we please take random practice tests by module? This will help strengthen our weak areas while in an “exam interface”

Can we also be able to have the option to get rapid responses while working on the random practice exams? The personalized exam option does not display all the questions at once. This is frustrating and can feel like a drag while attempting questions.

Cant use split screen eel

I use notability to take notes on one side and watch the lecture on the other. Whenever I go into half and half split screen mode, the option bar on the bottom that allows me to press play, change settings, etc. disappears and I have to completely force close the app to get it to come back. This also happens on browser but on browser I just have to exit out of the lecture which is also a pain. For the app I have to shut it down completely. Pretty much anyone using an iPad for Becker is going to split their screen to take notes. Fix this!!!

Hi, we're sorry to hear you're having issues with the app! Can you please let us know more about your issue by calling our customer service center at 1-800-868-3900? Please provide the device model and iOS version you're using, and if possible a video of this issue, since we were unable to replicate it. Thank you in advance!

Prefer working on my laptop than the mobile applications

It would be great if the desktop application was also upgraded. Many people still work on their laptops.

Notes Taking function

I really hope that I can take writing notes on my iPad along with the lecture so it’s one book with all the portable notes all together. When I click on the pen icon in the lecture window, the highlight and notes function does not work. Nothing shows up when click or highlight. Really hope this can be fixed and would create a lot of convenience and efficiency. Thanks

Hi. We're sorry to hear you're having issues with the app. Just to confirm, Highlight & Notes is just the title of that pop-up, it's not actually a feature like Ellipse, Rectangle and Text are. To use one of those 3, just tap that option and then tap where you want your annotation on the page to be. If that doesn't work, can you please follow up with our customer service center at 1-800-868-3900? And if all you need is just to take a few notes, you may also use the "notepad" icon right next to the "pen". Happy studying!

Night version?

I like the app but...are you going to release a night version? With a dark background? It’d help a lot at night when I lay next to my kid and wait for him to go to sleep......
