Battling to load the app
Great app but now I need to write some exams but not allowing me to open the app.
Mr
Terrible terrible app experience
User
The app is exactly like the website and a useful learning tool. The text is very small and not well adapted for the change from laptop to phone. The pictures don't load offline but the text does. ( for courses)
Signing in
I struggle to sign in, because there is no option to register an account.
