ADS

The long ads that are inescapable make this app a nightmare. It is completely unusable at times!!!

Ads ads and more ads!!

Some of the ads are necessary but to lock a class up with an ad you cannot get out of for over 2 mins is HEINOUS!
Some of us have goals we are trying to achieve!

Not happy at all

I downloaded this app to get mental health and dv Diplomas to help family’s and child in need as here in qld there ain’t enough I passed my mental health and now to get certificate they want nearly $200 outrageous I don’t have any kind of money like that

Keeps log in me to an unknown unknown when I have an account

Love this course on different types of anxiety

Easy to understand and implement these exercises in your life! Wasn’t aware of how many different anxiety disorders that are . Thanks too amazing how these are free courses ,highly suggest taking these courses and you can get a certified certificate for free.

Learning hub

Very good and affordable learning program at your own convenience

Excessive intrusive adverts. English course has Spanish videos!

Tried this for a photography course. After watching multiple long adverts for irrelevant games, it would only play video in Spanish despite being set to English. The app is not usable for me.

Adverts

The sheer volume of adverts make this app unusable.

Certificates is not free and overpriced

Courses for free with ads but certificates are over priced 100-200$ for not a university courses. It doesn’t worth it.

Love Your beautiful Self

This program is amazing and easy to follow. I’ve been trying to lessen since January and now it’s June. I can say that I remember everything from each lesson if I skip a day. Unlike with other learning tools I’ve purchased. I feel like if you do the lesson 2-4 times you will grasp the info without having to use multiple sources. So many modules.

Hi Lovely_ChocolateBeauty, we are happy to hear you had a positive experience! We value your input and encourage you to let us know more details about your experience with us. Keep Learning, Be Empowered. 😊

Deceiving

Too many issues:
1. They run too many ads
2. Searched for a course/ It was just someone babbling on genericly and repeating the same thing over and over.
3. They say you will be able to achieve "X" and be ready to apply what you learned. This is not the case at all.
4. You are better off going directly to a website that actually offers free use of their programs.

The ads are too much

I like the website but the ads on this app are annoying. They stay on my screen for too long without letting me exit. Last time I timed the ad and it was stuck without an x to remove from my screen for more than 4 minutes.

Ruined! by ads- pointless app now!

What a disgrace!!! I logged back in after a period of absence due to illness but gave up!!! could not even get to my courses due to the dumb onslaught of banal mindless game adverts!!! totally ruined this app. When will developers understand that this kind of invasive tactic and quantity is counter productive and just means you LOSE USERS!!! I deleted the app, absolute disgrace! A great app ruined!

Expanding Knowledge and Advancing Public Health Skills

I had a great experience completing the Diploma in Public Health course through Alison. The course content was informative, easy to follow, and covered important public health topics such as disease prevention, health promotion, environmental health, and community wellness. The lessons helped expand my knowledge and reinforced concepts that are valuable in both community health and public service settings.

I appreciate the flexibility of learning at my own pace and the opportunity to earn a recognized diploma. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in public health, healthcare, or community outreach.

Thank you, Alison, for making quality education accessible and affordable.

Hi Vihodizaramki, thanks so much for your feedback! We are really glad you are enjoying the Alison App. Continue learning on Alison and empower yourself!

Can’t actually get to content because of ads!

What is going on with this app??! I can’t actually even open up a course because of all the ads. I sat through the first (really long!) one because I figured I’d get my course after it ended. Then another started, then another. No way to close them, go to content or anything. Eventually they stopped showing new ads and it was just stuck on the final advert with a link to the store but nothing else. Eventually I closed and reopened the app, to try again, but when I opened the course it just took me back to more ads. Very disappointing.

We've shared your feedback with our product team as they continue reviewing the app experience and ad frequency. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Game commercials

Freaking game apps advertising has gotten absolutely ridiculous! You can’t close them out because there’s no X just an open to open them. Having to restart a half dozen times is irritating just to study your courses.

Agradecido

Gracias por ayudarme aprender más y ser una mejor persona

Pop up ad nightmare

The pop up ads are out of control. You can’t even close most of them. Ridiculous.

Free learning? If you can get past the adverts

I have completed a couple of courses on this app, I then tried another but an advert popped up so I waited, then another advert … 20 minutes later I still couldn’t get to the course. I don’t mind an advert in exchange for a free course but that was ridiculous.
