SSO option lacking

It’s pathetic that something as basic as single sign on isn’t available

Missing basic features

A beta app at best. Gets the job done but with a few bugs and a lot of missing features. I will still continue to use and I hope they invest some money into it

Current version 1.9.5 Unstable

Uninstalled app, since as others said the app crashes for no reason and loses all settings. Not worth the effort to use the app.

Constant crashes with video content

I have a few video titles that I want to watch but can’t because selecting a chapter crashes the app Also you can see what books you own unless I’m completely missing it.

Persistent Crashes: A Call for Improvement

The app frequently encounters issues, notably crashing during transitions between book chapters or video training sessions. This not only interrupts the learning experience but also removes the resource from the library view, requiring users to search for it again and restart their progress. For a premium membership, a more reliable and user-friendly companion app is expected.

Good content, terrible reader

I guess they do not read their own boooks....

Just worse than the reader in the website

Why do I have to sacrifice features like syntax highlighting and keyword highlighting like the web reader has for the convenience of having the book on my phone? Every code snippet should be syntax highlighted. Every keyword that’s highlighted in the book in the web reader should be highlighted in the app. This is one of the better readers out there but it could be the best reader out there.

Books are great but no audio

None of the videos have any audio. Also when you download a book it doesn’t track progress.

Completely useless

Not able to access my purchased videos or books.

Missing basic functionality

No book marks. No notes.
