Videos don’t work

I couldn’t get the videos to work on this app (which are the most important part) after all kinds of troubleshooting. So infuriating!

Videos won’t open

It’d be a great app if the videos would open. All of the other info is great. Sometimes I need to solidify a concept by watching it performed. Maybe I’m doing something wrong…
