Downloaded it as it recommended over the website if you don't have a reliable internet connection. After logging in and downloading the content, I tested by turning on airplane mode and closing the app down and then opening it back up. I was able to get in without logging in but when I attempted to start a course. The screen throws a giant black window with a message telling me they don't detect and internet connection and to check my internet connection to resume! Why bother?

Your software is beyond terrible and outdated. First, you need two different platforms to access cert card, training material, tools etc . Really?? Second, your cdn is the slowest I have seen. Third, your app can't download training material unless you stay on the download page. You recommend wifi because of the size of the files but it seems really because your developers realize the garbage they produced is non functional. Here is a development tip for ya... 4G. The only game in town.💀

Does the job, but loading times are long and downloads could be optimized. I like that I can download single lessons and all of a course at once, but even with all at once it would be way more efficient to download them in batches, e.g. 5 in parallel, first to last rather than all at once. After all, usually people who download material tend to have less downlink anyway, e.g. on dive boats, remote islands. As it is, I'm getting the later lessons/reviews long before any I should start with.
