### 2/5 — App states

*2020-05-06, version 1.2.4*

The app constantly states no Wifi connection although both wifi and mobile date are on and other apps are working fine. Have tried deleting and reinstalling the app but still not working.

### 2/5 — Almost unusable

*2018-06-19, version 1.1*

The app will play a section - and then stop rather than continuing on to the next chapter. This means in some instances listening to a 2 minute piece of audio, then having to pull your phone from your pocket, or pull your car off the road if listening via Bluetooth to select the next chapter and press play again, and again...

### 3/5 — Good source of knowledge

*2018-06-18, version 1.1*

Very useful and knowledgeable speakers. Slightly inconvenient process to play... have to select each section individually and don’t have a play all function for each month. Other than that, great.
