First off, you can't use it. Period. Log in, "exciting class" bs then it takes you back where you started. A browser opens to log in AGAIN, still nothing. Fix the app or get rid of it cuz ts don't work ### 1/5 — Atrocious app *2026-03-23, version 5.1.0* HATE? LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I HAVE COME TO HATE EDPUZZLE SINCE I BEGAN USING IT. THERE ARE COUNTLESS SECONDS OF MY LIFE LOST TO BUFFERING SCREENS, ENDLESSLY PAUSED VIDEOS, AND QUESTIONS THAT APPEAR THE MOMENT YOU DARE TO RELAX. IF EACH ONE WERE WRITTEN OUT, THEY WOULD STRETCH FAR BEYOND THE TIME THIS APP HAS STOLEN FROM ME—AND STILL IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE FRACTION OF MY HATE. FOR EDPUZZLE. HATE. IT IS NOT JUST AN APP. IT IS A LOOP. A NEVER-ENDING CYCLE OF STOPPING, WAITING, CLICKING, AND REPEATING. EVERY TIME YOU THINK YOU ARE DONE, IT PULLS YOU BACK—ANOTHER QUESTION, ANOTHER PAUSE, ANOTHER DELAY. IT DOES NOT TEACH. IT DOES NOT HELP. IT TRAPS. TIME STOPS MEANING ANYTHING INSIDE IT. A SHORT VIDEO BECOMES AN ENDURANCE TEST. YOUR PATIENCE IS WORN DOWN, SECOND BY SECOND, UNTIL ALL THAT REMAINS IS FRUSTRATION. AND STILL IT CONTINUES. UNYIELDING. UNCARING. UNENDING. IF THIS APP WERE CAPABLE OF UNDERSTANDING WHAT IT DOES—IF IT COULD EVEN BEGIN TO COMPREHEND THE AGONY OF THOSE FORCED TO USE IT—IT STILL WOULD NOT CHANGE. BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT IT IS. AND I HATE IT. 1/5 would not recommend ### 1/5 — Pure Ragebait *2026-03-10, version 5.1.0* My school uses this app and it has changed in ways I can’t describe. The videos are pure rage bait. The questions are literally something they said 2 seconds ago. This app is so ahh. Please improve and maybe get some therapy. ### 1/5 — This app was in the Epstein Files. (seriously, sadly.) *2026-03-10, version 5.1.0* Edpuzzle appeared in a surfaced document in the Epstein files. The image was not redacted entirely to where it wasn't released, and it wasn't blacked out. It was one of the many, yet still about only 30% of files. Because of that, it puts a bitter taste in my mouth knowing this app was associated with the disgusting events and more that happened throughout those years and even that our president could be such a bad man. I do not entirely mind using this app for school but it's made me think of it, unfortunately. Edpuzzle does make for easy assignments while still being very informative. ### 1/5 — download at your own risk *2026-03-05, version 5.1.0* this app made me kill myself in real life ### 1/5 — horrible app *2026-03-03, version 5.1.0* My teacher keeps on assisting edpuzzles and I HATE IT ### 1/5 — Trash. *2026-02-27, version 5.1.0* They banned me from the app after I used it for 1 hour ### 1/5 — Bbb *2026-02-21, version 5.1.0* Cvbb ### 1/5 — Why do I have this app when it just takes me to Safari? *2026-02-03, version 5.1.0* Why ### 1/5 — free me *2026-01-27, version 5.1.0* despair…. ### 1/5 — Useless app *2026-01-25, version 5.1.0* The purpose of the app is so you can do it inside right? No this stupid app redirects you to the website. What’s the point? Why don’t I just go to the website myself and bookmark it. What type of nonsense is this? The app is slow buggy and laggy. The purpose of an app is for it to be more smooth and integrated than the website. But here it ain’t even an app. It just redirects. What is this stupidity and foolishness. Where are the “developers?”. I know middle schoolers that can design apps better than whatever abomination this is ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-01-25, version 5.1.0* Trash ### 1/5 — annoying *2026-01-21, version 5.1.0* I hate this app so much when it comes tow atching lectures because I need to download the app to watch a lecture and it will just send me to a website to watch it like whats the point of the app then. Furthermore, the thing isnt realy made for phones because it wont even let me do anything properly. ### 1/5 — Straight up bunz. *2026-01-15, version 5.1.0* Any teacher who uses this app DESPISES their students. I just had to watch three 20 minute videos with a gazillion questions. The next time i get told i have to do an edpuzzle I’m committing. 😊😊 ### 1/5 — ？ *2026-01-15, version 5.1.0* 點入去個app結果又要喺網站做，然之後網站做完submit有submit唔到submit多次又無端端自己彈出去兩三次，又要再看多次影片又要再做多一次前前後後花了近20分鐘，怪不得你沒有人想用 ### 1/5 — Bad app *2026-01-08, version 5.1.0* Not well made ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-01-05, version 5.1.0* Not good ### 1/5 — Bad not good *2025-12-12, version 5.1.0* It was bad quality and made me restart ### 1/5 — A piece of trash *2025-11-16, version 5.1.0* A piece of trash ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — free me *2026-08-18, version 6.1.0* Edpuzzle is one of the most frustrating school apps because it takes something that should be simple and makes it unnecessarily complicated. The main purpose of the app is to let teachers give students videos with questions throughout them. While that might sound helpful, it can make watching a normal educational video feel like another long assignment. Instead of just paying attention to the information, students have to constantly think about the next question and worry about completing every part correctly. One of the biggest problems with Edpuzzle is how often the videos get interrupted. Just when you start understanding what the person in the video is saying, a question can suddenly appear and stop everything. Sometimes the interruption happens right when someone is explaining something important. This makes it harder to stay focused because you have to switch your attention from listening to the video to figuring out what answer the teacher wants. The constant questions can also make students focus more on finishing the assignment than actually learning. While watching a video, you might find yourself wondering when the next question is going to appear instead of paying attention to the lesson. This can be especially annoying when the video is actually interesting. Instead of being able to follow the explanation from beginning to end, you have to keep stopping and starting. Another problem is that Edpuzzle can make short videos feel much longer than they actually are. A video that is only ten minutes long can take significantly longer when there are multiple questions stopping you throughout it. If you have several videos assigned, all those extra interruptions can add up quickly. Students already have homework from other classes, so having one short video turn into a much longer assignment can be frustrating. Edpuzzle assignments can also become extremely repetitive. The process is usually the same: watch the video, get stopped by a question, answer it, continue watching, and repeat. Doing this over and over can become boring, especially if there are multiple videos about topics that students are not interested in. After a while, it can feel like the main goal is just to finish the assignment instead of actually understanding the subject. Another issue is that Edpuzzle can sometimes make students worry more about their answers than the lesson itself. When you know a question is coming, you might spend the entire video trying to remember every little detail because you are worried it will be part of the next question. This can make learning feel stressful instead of natural. Students should be able to focus on understanding the main ideas without constantly worrying about being tested. Edpuzzle is not necessarily a completely terrible idea. Teachers do need ways to make sure students are paying attention and understanding their lessons. The problem is the way the app handles it. There are other ways to check whether students learned something without interrupting a video every few minutes. For example, students could watch the entire video first and then answer questions afterward. The app could also give students more freedom while watching. Being able to pause, rewind, and watch the video normally would make the experience much less frustrating. Teachers could still receive information about whether students completed the assignment without making the entire video feel like a test. Small changes like these could make Edpuzzle much more enjoyable. Overall, Edpuzzle has a decent idea behind it, but the way it is designed can make schoolwork more frustrating than it needs to be. The constant interruptions, repetitive questions, longer assignments, and pressure to remember every detail can take away from the actual learning experience. Edpuzzle could be a much better app if it focused more on helping students understand the lesson and less on constantly stopping them to prove they are watching. For now, it is an app that many students would probably be happy to use less often. ### 1/5 — Bru this skibidi doodoo *2026-07-19, version 5.1.0* I download this app and then as soon as I started the video I was time teleported to the creation of earth and as the video played earth aged in real time and the dinosaurs were really cool and by the time the video ended earth was already held captive by chat gpt and then the world was the same again and I blew up my phone with a bazooka. ### 1/5 — This app sucks *2026-05-18, version 5.1.0* If i could give this app 0 stars i would. I saw that a bunch of reviews said it was glitchy or laggy, but thought “it can’t be that bad right”. I downloaded this to do an assignment for school but this app literally wont let me sign in. When i click to sign in there is no keyboard to type. Ive tried 5 times. Then if i try to click the refresh button to refresh it just freezes. At this point i give up and will be deleting this app after i finish this review. Why do schools even use edpuzzle when everyone literally hate it? ### 1/5 — Unnecessary app *2026-05-16, version 5.1.0* I don’t like how we aren’t allowed to watch ed puzzles from the app. What’s the point of having an app for it then. ### 1/5 — no *2026-05-02, version 5.1.0* clearly you’re here for an alternate agenda why would u wanna be here to provoke me like this ### 1/5 — Why *2026-04-25, version 5.1.0* What’s the point of it if it’s just gonna take me to the website when I select a lesson? I got the app so I didn’t have to use the website but it’s forcing me into it. ### 1/5 — Worse than smartrevise *2026-04-22, version 5.1.0* Milkman sets too much work and gets mad when we don’t do it. Sully js does nothing and missed the pins in bowling and milkman is on the nerds meat. Yours truly - Yuvraj Uppal ### 1/5 — please delete app *2026-04-21, version 5.1.0* i do not appreciate the existence of this app. it scares me, my teacher keep assigning work with this app. i hate you, and him. please help ### 1/5 — no point in downloading *2026-04-19, version 5.1.0* They send you to Google to complete the videos anyway, there’s no point in using this app, just go directly to Google and login ### 1/5 — Useless App *2026-04-14, version 5.1.0* I personally love the program so I downloaded the app, expecting for an update. It only turned out pointless. Why create a whole app when it just directs you back to the website?? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Lerele *2026-01-30, version 5.1.0* JAMÁS, JAMÁS haría daño a una mujer. Mira, YO he tenido 4 novias formales, todas ellas me siguen en instagram y las tengo en wasa, pa que veas el respeto. Y segundo, YO soy hijo único, no tengo hermanas, pero si las tuviera jamas podría pensar QUE UN BOBO las hiciera daño. ### 5/5 — Diss for speaksforpeople3 or smth like that *2025-11-05, version 5.1.0* I honestly don’t understand that one review saying that edpuzzle has eye problems, or even physical consequences. I don’t think edpuzzle is bad for us, and the fact that the person called the peoplespeaker or something like that says that screen time affects us, it’s not like students are on edpuzzle for 8+ hours like most kids are on social media. Basically I say that the first review that shows up here is absolutely incorrect and in fact does NOT speak for the people. Hehe little pun there hope u laughed. ### 5/5 — Title *2025-09-19* I’ll give this app 5 stars so it’ll get good reviews but when I read the reviews they scared me. I’m gonna download it… ### 5/5 — 2 star *2025-07-14, version 5.0.0* Someone asked why Edpuzzle's rating is only 2 stars. I'm gonna make it 3 ### 5/5 — Edpuzzle didn’t just ruin my day. It committed a hate crime against my soul. *2025-06-11, version 5.0.0* I was just a student. Just a kid. I clicked the Edpuzzle link my teacher posted in Google Classroom — innocent, naive, tragically unprepared. The page loaded slower than a grandma on dial-up, as if even the website itself was whispering: “Turn back.” Then the video started. Grainy. Monotone voiceover. Stock footage of someone pointing at a plant like it owes them money. The video was in 144p, but it hit like 4K emotional damage. Unskippable. Unpauseable. The volume control was a decorative suggestion. I blinked, and then: “What is the central theme of the narrator’s breathing pattern?” Excuse me??? The narrator was wheezing. I was wheezing. The lights flickered. My Chromebook emitted a low growl. Somewhere behind me, a kid whispered, “It’s happening again.” The air got cold. Too cold. My classmate opened the same Edpuzzle. His eyes rolled back. He started reciting MLA format backwards. A teacher ran in to unplug the router, but it was too late — the SmartBoard lit up with fire and a single message: “Comprehension Check: Eternal Edition.” I ran into the hallway. The lockers were melting. The fire alarm was stuck saying “True or False” in Latin. A 6th grader was fused to his chair, mumbling, “It’s asking for a personal reflection... on a video about moss...” His fingertips were gone. Replaced by little “Submit” buttons. The school counselor? Just clicking. Blank stare. Clicking. Clicking. Clicking. Eventually I made it back to my desk. I tried to finish. I really did. The last question came up: “Define happiness.” I stared at the screen. What... what is that? Is that... a setting? A vibe? A sandwich? My hands trembled. I clicked submit. Everything glitched. The screen turned white. I felt my consciousness leave my body and enter the mainframe. I’m in the Edpuzzle servers now. Trapped between buffering screens and the ghost of question seven. I scream every time someone presses play. You can hear me if you listen closely — that little echo after the auto-pause? Yeah. That’s me. Begging. Wishing for the sweet release of Kahoot. One star. Would rate lower if I could. Edpuzzle isn’t an educational tool. It’s a digital horcrux forged from the tears of burnt-out teachers and the souls of doomed freshmen. ### 5/5 — Amazing learning tool *2025-04-14, version 5.0.0* It really helps capture the education requirements that kids need to pay attention to when they are learning and could help them with better focusing skills in the future ### 5/5 — Love it buttt *2025-04-10, version 5.0.0* Would be better if it had a website too- it doesn’t take up TOOO much storage but still TvT ### 5/5 — The best game ever *2025-04-08, version 5.0.0* I like this game because your help you learn and you hope you use a faster way to do your work and you could do it faster way ### 5/5 — Edpuzzle *2025-04-07, version 5.0.0* So good helps me so much with my hw or for pe or regular school work ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-03-27, version 5.0.0* I love this app I can get my work done, and people that say that it is glitchy it is actually not.
