Ratings and reviews

Don't upgrade from basic unless you use a PC. Many points when it tells you this section not compatible with mobile devices. Then in tests with drag and drop, sorry this does not work with touch enabled devices. Is it 1999 or 2023? Very very disappointed, but very happy I tried a course in free audit mode and didn't waste my money.

This app has only one very slight improvement over accessing edX through a browser and that is the ability to download videos. But you can't download the exercises from the course (or even do some of them AT ALL in the app), so working offline is pretty much impossible except for videos (and maybe readings?) Since you have to be online AND in a browser for the exercises anyway, there's no significant advantage using the app to access edX courses. Basically this just takes up memory on a phone.

Honestly amazing for what this app offers in terms of learning. For any purpose you would want to, you can learn it. Little slow loading times when searching for specific courses, and no way to go back on where you left off if you accidentally looked further ahead in a course.
