We’d really appreciate your feedback on what else you want this app to do!

The app requires the following permissions:

- Record audio: For recording audio to upload to your site as part of a submission
- Read and modify the contents of your SD card: Contents are downloaded to the SD Card so you can see them offline
- Network access: To be able to connect with your site and check if you are connected or not to switch to offline mode
- Run at startup: So you receive local notifications even when the app is running in the background
- Prevent phone from sleeping: So you can receive push notifications anytime

Ratings and reviews

Since the last update it has lost all of it's convenience. You used to be able to choose whether to insert images from the camera or your file browser, now it redirects you to the file explorer every time. The UI has downgraded, looking like a worse version of the mobile website. The app has lost all of it's convenience over the mobile or desktop site.

It's genuinely not a good app. Once started, it loads for several mimutes until all GUI elements and content is shown. It sends you calendar notifications by default instead of prompting your preference. If there is a full list of your courses somewhere, I was unable to find it. Anything you do within the app is painfully slow. I've reverted to using my mobile browser. On the upside, it is free.

Courses have to be downloaded before it can be accessed for learning and the size of each module is up to 100Mb plus. I don't think that is economical and memory friendly for mobile phone users. I think there should be options for streaming or playing the learning videos online and option to read it in text format as well as the download option and still keeping the App size lite.
