Horrible value you what you pay. The interactive study guide is very buggy. The content is miniscule for the amount of information in the chapter. The exam tests were extremely easy compared to the actual chapter tests in the course. This provides you with a false sense of readiness. You can't view the test results once you close it. You have to redo the test or "study deck." Not only that, but if you use this app on a tablet and phone, the two don't sync up. I wouldn't recommend

Love the app, but for the audio book I wish they would have better headphone support. I can increase and decrease the volume fine, but id really like the ability to pause the audio to. It is very annoying to have to use the drop down menu to pause it especially if I'm trying to do something and have to pull my phone out and unlock it first. Will raise to 5 star if they fix this.

I love the concept because I don't have time to sit and read the textbook. This way, while driving or working, I can listen in and get ahead of my studies. I had an issue with chapter 4 not playing and IT fixed the problem. Thank you!! It is great! I Wish it would go through each chapter without having to open my phone and hit the next chapter. Needs auto play!
