Ratings and reviews

I'm finding this quite frustrating. I am trying to watch the videos on my TV but using a browser either means the videos buffer constantly or on another browser the audio is not in sync with the video. When I access the app on my phone it's fine but I don't seem to be able to access the cast icon. When I try and tap on the video an overlay appears and I can't access the cast icon. I've been looking forward to this course but I don't want to watch it on a small screen.

Great content and an Ok App. Things that are missing: Creating your own list of learning classes and being able to return to them when you reopen the app instead of having to seatch every time.

App itself is clean and has a nice GUI. It's easy to use and I think has a better layout than the website. Plus you can download the videos offline and I find them to be at a higher quality than via the website. Unfortunately the casting on it is utter garbage. It'll cast the wrong episode half the time and the rest of the time it'll either crash the app or just simply fail. On occasion the cast button is simply greyed out. The rare times it does it work properly it's amazing but it's rare.
