Great Shiurim - clunky app

The app stops working and the player will time out or stop playing if app isn’t on screen. Can’t download shiurim to phone. It is easier to go to desktop site.

Why why why

Come on guys! There are million of apps that run smoothly, play when asked to, and don’t waste everyone’s time waiting so that maybe some Torah can be learned.

New app not playing lectures!

I am unable to play the YU Torah lectures that would easily play when I previously used the YUTorah app. Does anyone else have this issue? I will redownload the app and see if it helps.

Some truly outstanding content, but ....

I’m not sure that what seems like every shiur given by YU musmachim, as an impressive a group as they are, needs to be on YU Torah—its a bit overwhelming, and very unwieldy.

Second—the technical aspects of this app leave MUCH to be desired. For example, it should be possible to start a shiur one day, on, say, my iphone, and pick up the next day at the same point without having to relocate the shiur (which as noted, is an unwieldy, annoying process), and then scroll—only through the downloaded version—to the point you were up to yesterday; aaarrrrgghhh! Any podcast app allows one to simply pick up from where you left off! Another problem—since I downloaded ios 11 (and 11.01), the app stops after about a minute—I have to hit the home key to get it to continue; and if I’m driving, and put on, say, google maps, the app stops. (At least here, when I restart it, it continues from where it left off—thank God for small things!).

There are other technical problems, between enough. Overall, it seems like nobody who is developing this app looks at it from the user’s perspective.

Compatibility

Does this work on iOS 9.1???

Needs improvement

Shuttle option is causing problems. Needs to be fixed ASAP

Horrible

Does not work!!

Love this!!

I don’t even go to Yeshiva University and I love everything about this app!! Thanks YU mobile! #keepitup

Worst App Ever!

This app is literally the worst one I've ever had to use. As students, we must use it to reserve shuttles. The catch is- it's impossible to do so because this app has worse moods than myself- it decides to work 1 out of a 1000 attempts.
Before Yeshiva University forces its students to use this app and advertises it on their home page they should check to see that this thing even works.
Hard to believe it's the 21st century when using this slow, user unfriendly, and ugly app.

So useful

I'm so glad this finally exists.
