Description of OU Study

Learn anywhere, anytime with the OU Study app. This app enhances your learning experience on mobile devices as an Open University student. So, you can access learning materials to study wherever and whenever you like. Benefits of using the OU Study app include: - Easy access to your module materials and study planner. - Download learning materials to study offline. - Keep track of key dates and progress. - Never miss a forum message. The OU Study app is for Open University students who are registered on a course or qualification. Sign in using your OU username and password (the same one you use to sign in to the website). Free or paid-for learning content from partners such as OpenLearn or FutureLearn is not available in the app.  If you're experiencing any unexplained issues, check our Troubleshooting guide: https://learn1.open.ac.uk/course/view.php?id=100187&cmid=22860 For any urgent and access queries, contact the computing helpdesk at ou-scdhd@open.ac.uk. USEFUL TIPS - There is a lot of information on your module website. So, it will take a few minutes for the app to load the first time you use it. Use a Wi-Fi connection for your first use. As the app caches some information, it will get quicker. - Download learning materials individually and batch download by week using Course downloads. Return to the Planner to access downloaded materials. If you need to free up space, delete them from the Course downloads screen. - The Planner within the app remembers the week you were studying last time. So, you can continue studying easily. You can always navigate to the current week to keep track of the key dates. - The OU Study app and your module website are synced. As you tick completed resources or save an answer, both the module website and the app are updated. - The majority of your module activities will be available in the app. Yet, for some, you will be directed to your browser to use the mobile version of the module website. - We try to prioritise requirements based on user feedback. If you have any feedback or suggestions, use the Feedback function within the app or leave a review on the App Store. We regret that we can’t always reply to these directly, but we’re keen to hear your thoughts.

Reviews of OU Study

A little more work

This app is handy and wonderful, you can download the workload for offline viewing which is really useful. But, it’s held back by a lack of zooming in on texts or increasing the font size. My eyes get tired easily trying to read the small text on an ipad mini, can’t imagine how mobile users handle it.

So due to that issue I’m ignoring this app and sticking to the web version where I can zoom to my hearts content.

Poor accessibility / text size options

After finding the OU web based interface really annoying to use especially recently, I thought this app would be better.
On my iPad the text was quite small, so I used the text size option in settings. This changed the menu text but not the course material text. I tried the iOS built in text resize / dynamic text, and that isn’t supported by this app either. Very disappointed overall, I need bigger text. Still haven’t found a solution that works for me for OU mobile study.

Where are my courses?

Signed onto the app and could not, for the life of me, find my enrolled courses. Then, after signing off the app kept my name displayed on the sign on screen !

I hope my this is not the quality I can expect when I actually begin the actual courses….
