Update as of 22 JAN 2024: I updated the app to the newest version and got through the entire self-study course, including all of the tests. Thankfully, I took a screenshot of the page where it congratulated me on competent the course, because as soon as I hit the "Get Certificate" button, the app crashed and now won't even open. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, nothing. Crashes every time I finish the final assessment and will not re-open.

Nutrition self-study course will completely "bug out" following completion of the 5th module. Upon completion of final quiz, the app closes and you can't reopen the app until you clear all data which resets your course completion back to the beginning. Tried it again and bug happened again. Tried my wife's new phone and it still happened. Needs fixed so we can receive credit for completion. Better yet put this course on the web instead of the app. PRT calculator works well.

Decent information. The self paced course crashes the app permanently once you complete all assessments. Don't make it a dang requirement when the course doesn't work. All the money the Navy has, and y'all can't hire anyone with more than 2 months of coding experience.
