| 2024-12-05 |  | | Unintuitive UI with limited features in comparison to similar note taking apps. The user experience is nowhere near on the same level as other apps like Jamworks. I didn't find this app enjoyable to use at all. Edit: It's not just about features, but the UX in general. You might find it helpful to spend more time on discovery and design to optimise your app instead of asking reviewers to give you the answers. |
| 2024-12-05 |  | | The app on the phone keeps freezing up! |
| 2024-11-18 |  | | It's a pity that it doesn't have the same functionality as the web site such as the quiz and outline. It would be really handy if you could just run through a quiz when you have five minutes. |
| 2024-11-13 |  | | The best thing I have ever had and it has really enhanced my learning |
| 2024-10-24 |  | | Can someone please fix the crashing on the mobile version. I'll have it open and running and it turns off if im not on the app or even if im on it. It's not running in the background or something |
| 2024-10-19 |  | | I couldn't even sign in to the app. The options are to enter your email, or sing in with a "magic link", or with "SSO" (which I have no idea of what it might be). Basically, the sign-in is very complicated. |
| 2024-09-24 |  | | This app is great but it keeps taking me back to app store every time i open it |
| 2024-09-21 |  | | This is great to store on your phone if you've got dyslexia or you're on the spectrum because it dictates everything you need to know about courses and things that you're on and everyday things. You can leave notes to yourself so you're less likely to forget things |
| 2024-06-26 |  | | This app constantly crashes. The website almost never works first time and takes 20minutes to load, by which time the lecture is half over. Shoddy site, needs lots of improvement. It is useful when it works correctly but that's few and far between |
| 2024-06-20 |  | | No real time captions and no replacement for a real person! Universities should be banning this software, not throwing disability and accomodation funds into it. |
