App crashes constantly

The content is good but the app feels unusable most of the time, it constantly freezes, it's hard to find things the way it's organized, and the CPE tracker doesn't really work

Good but very buggy

Consistently crashes. When it works it’s great, though I have to do all the podcast listening outside of the app

Please fix Let’s Try It Again page.

Great app but please fix the Let’s Try That Again Page. It’s under the iPhone home swipe so I cannot tap the Retry button. I have to shut the app down and go back to the quiz. Thanks!

Earmark player constantly doesn’t work

I like many of the courses and find value in them, but the earmark player constantly stops working or plays with no sounds. It’s pretty frustrating

Modern CPE

Strong and diverse CPE content, Blake and Adam are funny!

Great way to earn CPA CPE on the go

Thank you for this alternative to boring CPE at prescribed times, this flexibility of earning credits while exercising and listening to podcasts is great!

No brainer

Literally couldn’t be easier to get CPE

Recommended

Most insightful way I’ve found to gain industry knowledge and CPE

Great for CPE, app needs work

Great way to get CPE. But the app itself is very slow and lacks basic features like selecting an individual show to see all episodes or the ability to create playlist. Basic search and filter spins slowly

CPE that’s current and fresh

Works on your mobile device most refreshing content available. Brilliant! I Needed 3 years CPE for Texas reciprocity. This was highly efficient and I learned a ton that I can use. The paid version was my best option out there for the CPE marathon that Tx required!

Relevant & engaging

I thoroughly enjoy the discussions Blake and David have on the Accounting Podcast. Earning CPE is made easy and is very relevant. I find their discussions engaging. I’ve experienced dry CPE in the past from other providers and websites, but this keeps me informed and engaged. While I am CMA, I still find these discussions relevant.
Keep up the good work!

Best CPE app ever

Thanks for making CPE easy!

Best CPE provider out there

Cheapest, most efficient way to earn CPE. Wide ranging content for casual CPE and technical content for Enrolled Agents.

WAY better than CPA Academy or LumiQ or anything else I’ve used in the past.

CPE I actually learn from

The trend of CPE via podcasts is music to the ears of the neurodiverse or just busy CPA. After years in the industry, many traditional learnings don’t offer a lot of new info. Podcasts mean I can walk the dogs, do the dishes, or paint the whole house while also learning real time info.

Response from developer

Thank you! 💚

Bad UX Design

I love the concept of this app but that app itself is really poorly made. The search function and the filter function don’t work. You can’t click through to an author’s page to see their other courses. It’s just overall a really bad UX design. I’m only leaving a review because I want to see it improve and continue using it.

Life saver but please add Spidell and kiplinger

A lot of the podcasts don’t provide quantitative tax info, it’s just qualitative best practices for running a firm etc. Spidell and kiplinger would solve this issue. Please add! Also, please add a favorites tab so I can stay updated on my favorite channels. Thank you!!

Best CPE on the go

I am a new CPA, earning most of my CPE from Earmark. The discussions on industry analysis and current events are fascinating. Listening on my commute to work means I can check CPE off my list when I’m ready for license renewal. Great content, grateful for this app.

Fits into my life and I actually learn

I have been an avid podcast listener for over 10 years. I enjoy listening while engaging in everyday activities, like driving or taking long walks. I am so grateful Blake and David created this innovative platform for earning CPE through podcasts. I get to absorb content that is actually engaging and aligns with the work I do, makes the learning process easy and seamlessly integrates into my lifestyle. I’ll end up earning way more CPE than I need with Earmark! Just a huge bonus to get CPE credit for all the self-motivated learning I was already doing.
