Ratings and reviews

It's really good but I have a few problem.Problem1. Sometimes even if I choose the right answer(s), it still thinks my answer is wrong(though that could be me choosing wrong).Problem2. Sometimes ✅ gets switched with false and ❌ with true.Problem3. sometimes the pick multiple choices also needs to pick the wrong choice also to get the next button appear. All things considered,10/10 if fixed but for now 9/10(will edit anymore if there's more bugs)(also,sorry for my terrible English and writing.)

The lessons were good, although it is very annoying to not be able to navigate easily between lesson steps without going through options repeatedly. BUT... quizzes are dangerously bad. Often you cannot pass without entering wrong answers, including more than once where it requires multiple mutually exclusive options even when only one is correct. (Most obvious where it needed True AND False for one question, and all three answers to another. I cannot take out and object AND leave it in)

Confusing and MUCH worse than the old app. Instead of simple step by step what to do inftructions based on situations it is turned into "learning platform" with "personalized plan" and a red cross information and fundraising app. The howto section is much much shorter than before, and always starts with several questions to "recommend" a topic (and the recommendation is useless). Big step back!
