App is garbage, I've downloaded an entire lesson from the app for watching when I am underground traveling on a tram. Yet, the program just wastes my time by keep loading and loading like it is searching for signal. When It works for the same scenario, I put it into full screen. The video would play with a circle in the middle that resembles the loading. So, as I am studying and watching the video, the circling circle just keeps running in the middle.

Edit: I submitted a ticket and it's resolved. It keeps skipping videos while casting to TV. Tried taking a React course. Of course I want to watch this on my 85" TV. The first video loaded correctly, but then it skipped to the 6th course. If I stopped casting and continued on my phone screen, it would work. There's no way I'm watching a 20 hour course on my tiny screen. Also when a video does play on my TV, the title bar is always visible and thus blocks 1/3 of the screen. Please fix asap.

Good content, terrible download speeds. I can usually find a decent entry level course for whatever I am looking for. Advanced content taught effectively is not always as easy to find. The ability to download a course is great but the terrible speed it downloads (even over really fast broadband) is prohibitive to being able to easily plan content for travel legs of a trip etc because it takes days or longer to download. Please get a better CDN.

It works, sometimes. It's a bit slow and needs to be force quit a lot due to getting stuck loading. The more frustrating thing is that it uses a very nonstandard video player that does not hide the play controls automatically when tapped and does not automatically go into picture in picture mode. Why reinvent the wheel? The developers should have just used standard video players and behaviors.

This app is terrible. Videos will stop loading in the middle of a course and will just get the spinning circle icon. When I close the app completely and try to load the app from scratch, the app itself won't even load (spinning circle that never goes away). I get the same thing when trying wifi and mobile data. What's the point of making a mobile app if it doesn't even work? You'll be better off just taking the courses on a laptop if you're on the go.

Udemy itself is great but this app buffers so much it makes it difficult. I can't use it away from home at all because without my wifi it only plays a few seconds at a time. It's crashed a few times and randomly skips forward a lesson so I can't listen while doing something else. It also provided no help or process other than a download notification when I tried to listen offline, so I wasn't able to figure it out.
