Stay Awag

I created a course on behalf of my former employer and made the mistake of giving Thinkific my social security number. As a platform for hosting classes, Thinkific is okay, but their support is appalling. There is literally no way to contact them unless you’re currently paying them. I needed to get statements for my taxes from them, and I reached out to them on LinkedIn…nothing. I asked HR at my old company, since they still had a login, and they weren’t able to get anything either.

Glitchy!

This app stinks on my iPhone and iPad. You cannot download files unless you are on a desktop browser. The words to go for or back lectures are missing or sometimes covered in a white block. Then it glitches where you can’t see anything at all on the app. It’s so frustrating. I’m constantly having to exit the app and try again. I have done lots of different courses using different apps, and this one is by far the worst.
