While I’ve enjoyed most of the courses I have watched the app is awful. The continue watching can’t be edited.

App crashing after latest update. Content is GREAT!. Can’t allow app to crash I learn on the go! Thanks Update Above crash seems to have resolved. Thanks Excellent content Pls make it run in the background, it stops playing say if I need to open message app while listening. I use video mode. Also, pls make a bookmark function that takes you to the whole course not only to specific lecture. I keep having to go to my watch list to find a specific course. My watch list is huge! Will happily keep subscribing! Totally worth the money. 5 Stars when above issues are fixed Thanks

I really can’t recommend this app enough. Forty years after my first liberal arts college education I’m giving myself a second one with this fantastic resource … and at a fraction of the cost. I’ve got notebooks of notes now on Russian Literature, Physics, the Ottoman Empire, Macroeconomics, and Infectious Diseases, to name just a few. It’s so wonderful to immerse myself in a world of learning at a time in life when I can truly appreciate and value it. I strongly recommend this app!!

I have purchased 117 courses over the past 15 years but will not buy another and refuse to be held captive by the subscription model. This app is crapp and I say that as a career software developer. Downloading my purchased content fails far more often than it succeeds and the entire user experience is torture. You have failed in your prime function, which should be to facilitate your customers ability to enjoy your products. You need to outsource the app to competent developers and get this fixed. Just awful.

The old Great Courses app was truly solid. I had used it across generations of iPads. Now, ever since it was retired and absorbed into the great course plus app, I’ve had THREE separate events in which I lost a few hundred GB’s of downloaded courses and thus had to redownload them. I watch these courses when traveling. I don’t want to rely upon streaming the content, especially when my viewing progress is rarely maintained when streaming. I’ve sunk thousands into this now piss poor company. I should have stuck with books instead. Welcome to the unreliability of the digital content world. Furthermore, the current offerings are overtly simplified in comparison to the older courses. Many of the recent courses don’t even meet high school standards.

I’m so tired of podcasts by people with opinions and no knowledge. This is a rewarding tool to enrich your mind from truly educated people.

My only complain about this app is that if you try to rewind with your headphones it takes you back to the very beginning of the lectures instead of the 30 seconds as the app suggests. Unfortunately, because of my job, I’m forced to use Audible if I want to listen to any of these lectures.

I have been a crest courses customer for a decade, but while the app works OK online, very often it will require a login. Then when offline the app is useless. FIX this!!!! The app should always play download content already on our devices

The original app is so much better. Courses bought while we had the original app don’t automatically appear in the new app - not just “don’t download” - new app says I didn’t purchase. Then constant pausing because it won’t connect to WiFi (everything else on my phone and iPad does), then it starts to play the same episode from two different spots, so the lecturer is speaking over themselves. I give up. Maybe this is their way of trying to force us to buy a subscription?

My “great courses” from the 20th Century are right where I left the DVD’s and still work as purchased. Meanwhile, Great Courses has become Great Courses Plus! The transition and reset of the password didn’t work; maybe because I didn’t bite your new “subscription” hook? At any rate, I’m writing off my lost digital purchase. Time is too precious to waste chasing locked binary information. I could jump through your hoops and next week a new genius executive will decide to rename it: “Great Courses Plus Plus Infinity!“ And we will all need new passwords again, to get at what we’ve already paid for. No thanks. I’ll just buy my Great Courses on DVD at the flea market. The old stuff is still great!
