### 1/5 — Trash!!!!

*2020-05-21, version 1.2*

Can't login blank screen!!! What happened to MPV??

### 1/5 — Whuuut happened here?

*2020-05-20, version 1.2*

This app is legit unusable. Can’t play any of the tutorials, not showing a fraction of those available on the web. I legitimately thought this was a bootleg app. I will be unsubscribing from their service immediately. Unfortunate!

### 1/5 — Does not work, just goes to blank screen. Please fix.

*2020-05-16*

I have purchased many Mac Pro Video Tutorials over the years. I download them all on my iPad and watch them offline. I first used the original Mac Pro Video app which worked great. It was no longer supported so I had to start again with the Ask Audio app which was a lot less responsive and always seemed to want an internet connection. Now that is no longer supported I have had to delete it and install this app and download all my videos for the third time. This app doesn’t work and just goes to blank screen. Please fix as the Mac Pro Video tutorials are absolutely fantastic and I really want to be able to download them to my iPad and watch them offline again.

### 1/5 — The Worse To Date ! 8^(

*2020-05-08, version 1.2*

Does not work on iPad Air period ! iOS 12.4.5
Has no choice to save downloads or read past downloaded tutorials. 
I have quite a few !
Who wrote this unworkable BS crap ! 8^(

### 1/5 — It Works, but is far less versatile...

*2020-04-30*

...It works because I can access my purchased MPV courses on the app in one place. Far less versatile in that I cannot view the streaming content from the website that my annual subscription allows me to. Therefore I recently cancelled my subscription.

### 1/5 — Won’t. Open.

*2020-04-20, version 1.2*

This app won’t even start up. All you get is a grey screen.

### 1/5 — Amateurish

*2020-04-02*

We’re not in quality software land here. Strange for an organisation focused on quality and education to deploy such an app.

Disappointed

### 1/5 — COMPLETE RIP-OFF!

*2020-03-22, version 1.2*

I began by purchasing videos of macprovideo, and then they switched their name to askvideo, and I could no longer use my purchased videos on my iPad. Then I received a bunch more tutorials with some software I had purchased. No sooner had I logged in when they changed their name to non linear education. Now it's completely WORTHLESS. Can't open the app, can't view the videos I've just purchased, can't even login. I wish they put as much effort into creating a working site as they do rebranding themselves. Until then, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

### 1/5 — Saddest

*2020-03-10, version 1.2*

Ask video app a part of nonlinear worked great even on older device and was user friendly. This app is not even close and not worth the effort until updated and fixed.  Bring back ask video app it actually worked.  Very poor rating for app that desperately needs attention. Do not recommend this poor app.

### 1/5 — Nothing loads? Blank screen on iOS 12.4.3 iPad

*2019-12-07*

Wow this is really sad. Does not work. Nothing shows up but blank screen? Just go and download the AskVideo App for iOS. At least that works quite well!

This is only for purchasing and downloading your Video courses. Not for subscription where you can view all courses online. Once again for that use AskVideo App.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2019-06-13*

I can’t watch or download any of my paid for courses. This is hugely frustrating - they used to have an (NED) that worked and this rubbish has replaced it.

### 1/5 — Clunkiest app on my phone

*2019-04-29*

Not sure how this app made it to the App Store, but it is surely the most outdated and clunky app i have. It wouldn’t be too bad if it actually worked. When you try to download the content you paid for, it downloads about 20% and then just stops. That’s it. No content. Buyer beware.

### 1/5 — Ineffective And irrelevant

*2019-04-12, version 1.2*

After being a customer for more than 10, I would expect a better app from this company. None of the courses offered through this app are current or relevant in anyway, TNT 1..... seriously! I know the company may respond, directing me to the web browser. Honestly, the web browser is clunky with safari. The volumes are unpredictable... it just doesn’t work very smooth on an iPad or iPhone.  The old browser was much better, and what ever happened to NED? That worked just fine. disappointed

### 1/5 — Does not work ! Fix it

*2019-02-06*

App simply does not work, we get a black screen. Useless. 
I bought courses and i cant follow them like I  wish to... fix it guys !

### 1/5 — Old app would play courses as part of a subscription...

*2019-01-31*

This new app only lets you view purchased courses so is completely useless if you have their subscription package (unlike the old discontinued app).

### 1/5 — Is that the best you can do?

*2018-12-30*

Clunky interface, app logs you out regularly, does not sync course progress with your online account. Best of all, when you watch the courses that you purchased through the iOS browser, your account may get suspended for breach of Terms of Service.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-11-05*

I used to enjoy using the old app, I could play the courses from my iPad while using the application I wanted to learn since iOS 11 the old app didn’t work now the new on just gives a black screen.

### 1/5 — FAKE. This is ONLY to steal your login info.

*2021-12-28, version 1.3.1*

Don’t fall for it.

### 1/5 — Bogglingly bad

*2021-12-12*

Just spent 30 mins trying to get macprovideo on my Apple TV. Didn't work. No app exists as advertised.
Saw this and tried it. Didn't work. Just directs me to Safari. 
What a ridiculous situation. This lot boast about their tech expertise and how they were one of the first app store companies but seem unable to create an app that works or keep their information up to date. Hmmm...

### 1/5 — Even clunkier than nonlinear web apps!

*2021-02-21*

If you thought that was just not possible, try this app! It will surprise you and redefine what “clunky” means!
Seriously speaking, have the developers, and I use the term loosely here, ever tried to use this software themselves? Did they define this acceptable? They must have incredibly low standards.

### 1/5 — Can’t watch streaming content

*2021-01-18*

So got a year sub but can’t watch any of the videos? What’s the point? You can only view courses you’ve purchased outright. They’ve also stopped supporting the Apple TV app. Don’t get it

### 1/5 — Pathetic really in 2020

*2020-10-04*

Pathetic really, since I also remember the old app not working around 5 years ago. You can log in to this but are greeted by a black screen. If only they put as much effort into the app actually working as they did on the 3D renders (with graphics options!) in the menu. 

0 ZERO NAUGHT NOTHING NADA ZILCH STARS awarded.

### 1/5 — Does not download!!!

*2020-09-29, version 1.3.1*

What is the point of this App?  Purchased video series on MacProVideo. Was sent to this app via a link in their website if I wanted to download course for offline viewing. This App just stalls out and never completes the download. Doesn’t do the one thing it is supposed to do. Yuck.

### 1/5 — Half the download

*2020-07-21*

Not downloading the full course. Be wary.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-06-28*

The original app has stopped working. I can’t access any of the 30+ courses bought over the years. So I downloaded this newer app. It doesn’t work. All I see is a black screen for 15 secs prior to it crashing.

### 1/5 — Goes to blank for me too

*2020-06-01*

Was hoping to watch a purchased course offline for when away from home. Seems like a number of people are having the same problem. Just goes to a blank screen when trying to load

### 1/5 — Simply does not work

*2020-05-21*

On my iPad I get black screen. I notice this problem was described here a year ago so there has been no development of a solution.
I want to give the app 0/5 because it does not even launch
Forced to give it 1/5 or cannot send.

### 5/5 — Issues?

*2023-08-05*

Not sure why there is so much hate for this app, simple and easy to use interface and I can take my course on the go which excellent. Works fine on my iPad Pro. Thank you Mac Pro video 😀

### 5/5 — Works just fine

*2021-09-18, version 1.3.1*

I hadn’t used this on my new device and was a bit anxious after reading all the very negative reviews. However, I downloaded it, logged on (no problem) and all my purchased courses showed up. I downloaded what I wanted and was using it within minutes. Maybe there was an update after all the bad reviews. I’d recommend the disappointed ones out give it another go.

### 5/5 — Works for me👍

*2021-01-11*

I downloaded this today.
I can see all the courses I’ve bought, and can download the courses to my iPad to view offline. 
Seems to work pretty darn well.
Perhaps they updated it?

### 5/5 — Sweet 3D interface!

*2018-10-01*

Love the 3D interface. Cool to see the last video I watched right on the screens! Downloads tutorials quickly and works great. Nice!
