Works poorly

For what we paid it should work better.

Easy to use

Great review

Disappointing

Very clunky and not able to communicate with online version. Very disappointing.

Have to force close after each video ends

Basically as above. When the video ends, you can no longer go back to the menu and you have to force close the app. Also, sometimes when you scroll back or forward in the video, you lose audio.

Phone to web site integration

Poor integration with web site. Does not list modules completed on the phone app when going back to the web site

Good but needs some fine tuning work

If I could change one thing would be the ability to rewind the videos to review a concept right there.

Crappy app, but great content

Great content, but the app is very touchy. Expanding to full screen frequently causes it to stop working correctly or it pulls up duplicates and plays the same thing at the same time. As such, you have to keep it the size it starts at, but if you touch outside of the screen it will close the video but continue the audio so you have to close it all and start over. It’s strange that you can’t simply choose the topic you want to review, but you instead have to set up an order of topics on another screen and then go in the order you set. Sometimes it pulls up the incorrect answer set for the question requiring you to close the app and start over.

Terrible lagging video player

The contents of the videos is fine. The issue is that even on a strong Wi-Fi connection most of the videos lag repeatedly sometimes as much as every few seconds. This makes the app almost useless for studying as you constantly have to pause and resume each video.

Good premise but glitchy

It’s frustrating that you can’t go out of order and that at the end of each section I have to closeDown the whole app to get to the next video.

Terrible app.

Please we can do better. Most of the time it doesn’t work. I can’t choose the sessions.

Difficulty with loading

Continues to get caught up not wanting to load.

App doesn’t open and run well

Questions are great. Getting them to load on the app stinks

Board prep

Great content but riddled with technical issues. The app freezes between lectures requiring me to delete and re-upload the app frequently. Lectures often play with duplicate lectures running in the background. Some of the answer options are off sequence and do not correspond with presenters question.

Antiquated and oversold in terms of what it adds to the course

Bite-sized content format important, although just a duplicate of the overall video course. Screen is locked in the horizontal position. Very clunky overall.

Unstable, almost primitive interface, due for a major overhaul.

This is quite possibly the worst “professional” app I’ve seen in years. When will this be overhauled?

Great content, terrible app

The content is great, wonderful review lectures, but the app has serious glitches. In the one week I have been using it, my list of topics has disappeared three times (on iPhone and both iPads) forcing me to re-download it. In addition, 3 of the first 10 topics I watched got stuck in a loop and played the same case over and over so that I could not complete the topic. I was forced to move that topic to the bottom of the list so that I could move on. It is poor programming that you cannot skip anything, it must go in order, so I could not manually move it to another case. Be forewarned this also means you cannot rewatch any video so be sure you take notes or a photo of anything you'd like to review. Perhaps it will let you rewatch after you finish the entire series, but since I have several topics already that will not complete, I will never know....

update 2 years later and same problems

Good with a couple of glitches

Convenience of the app is extremely helpful. The problems encountered are transitioning from one topic to the next. The Close and Start icons would not consistently work, requiring me to turn off the phone completely and restart between topics.
Also frequently at the questions, on restart there would be two versions starting almost at the same time (with echo) requiring me to hit the close button to turn one version of the speaker off.

Worst app ever though content for boards was great

This app is terrible. It constantly stalls and I have to close the app and restart it. The sound only works with my headphones. There are extremely limited choices in terms of rewatching content, looking at missed questions or rearranging content. It says it’s supposed to keep me on track to get through material before my boards but it essentially just tracked if I did the minimum questions and did not adjust if I need many more questions. I couldn’t really track my progress etc. the only benefit of the app was actually being able to watch the videos and answer the questions on my phone and the actual course was excellent but this made it very clunky and difficult to use.

Bad

Horrible hard to reverse if you do it often starts playing a second ime and both are playing truly bad can’t do whatever lecture you want have to reorder from beginning truly a horrible app
Good content Arranged terribly in this ridiculous app

For the cost invest in a better platform

This app is terrible

This app is very bad period. Plus I keep saying never to rate this app, then they ask me the next time I start the app, every time. The app won’t play sound unless have headphones in. There is no rewind or ff a short bit button. It constantly freezes when hit back to home buttons. App is worst part of program for sure...oh wait the website itself is also terrible. But the program is good haha
