Ratings and reviews

Garbage app. Sync issues, progress gets lost requiring logging out and in a couple of times, randomly changes percentile and average score on practice. Logins also "expire" every 24 hours for reasons beyond understanding pushing you to re-enter email and passwords every 24 hours. It's not an Android app, just an interface of CFAI's website packed as an app. It's a pity CFAI charges hefty fee for their exams and don't want to do one app right.

Bloody sync doesn't work and resets your progress all the time, making your metrics screwed up and your confidence and tracking off. Interface too easily changes page when you're trying to scroll left/right to see content in tables. Curriculum is worded to be needlessly confusing and eats up time trying to teach basic ideas. Need for modules outside of the curriculum/exam is also an added challenge that makes an already difficult course more complicated.

Great idea to create the app ! It facilitates the access to the learning ecosystem. But every time the app closes or the screen sleeps it has to reload the entire learning ecosystem. Also, it doesn't support offline learning like the browser. Suggestion : The app could save more data on the phone to download all the learning ecosystem once on the phone and upload progress when internet is available.
