  • Aggravating login repeats. Does not work offline

    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

  • Horrible

    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?

  • Digital Decay

    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!

  • ADA request denied then ignored

    All I asked for was transcripts that are provided at an EXTRA cost. I was denied. I showed them the laws that were being violated by asking me to purchase each course, especially when I am already paying for the subscription. Then I was ignored until my YEAR subscription ended. Video with captions that “almost” match what is being said as it is being said, is assuming abilities and disabilities. Not everyone can read that fast, see that well, or hear well enough all at the same time! I’m a single parent with multiple medical disabilities and learning disabilities, using the program. I am trying to learn how to represent myself in court, to get custody back of my littlest. They have great courses that are in depth and of topics I want to learn more of. I didn’t know my hearing and vision processing would decline enough for me to ask for a REASONABLE accommodation. If this has happened to you too, please let me know to add you to my case :(. I’m on most social media platforms.

  • Slow to open; non-functional on airplane

    By HomerDesMoines
    I have been listening to great courses since the early 1990s when I rented cassettes. The company has continued to try to meet me via the latest technological improvements. I have purchased many courses. I am able to download lectures. Yet the app does not open without Internet access or requires me to join streaming service while on airplane. Content = 5 stars. Implementation = 0 Stars as I cannot access the content.

  • Disappointing

    I love the content. I have bought a TON of content over the years. More than I’ve actually watched or listened to. The new Plus app is awfully dedicated to pushing the subscription plan. I don’t want a subscription. And I have no search function to just search my purchased content. Why? Worse, this version of the app has a similar shortcoming to the old app. I download content to watch/listen when I have no internet access. But the app still insists I log in, even to watch downloaded content. I can’t log in if I have no internet access. I can’t log in before I leave, but sometimes it forgets, and I’m out of luck. Very disappointing on both accounts. I’ve been a customer since the days of cassette tapes. I think this app is deeply flawed, at least for a customer like me.

  • Slow to Load

    Great content but graphics etc seem to bog down the app's load time

  • App does not function well

    Love the content. However, the app is a pain. Seems to work ok on a phone; but on an iPad, especially if I am not connected to the internet, it hangs up. Takes forever to load; or just fails to load at all. Only way to make it reliably load is to turn the iPad completely off, turn it back on ,and then try to load the app as the FIRST thing to do. Not sure why this happens, but this is highly irritating. I have tried to uninstall/delete the app and then re-install - no difference !

  • App doesn’t work

    By Clark L. Zeuss
    The iPad app is totally unresponsive. You can click on one thing like “My Purchases” but after that you can’t click on anything. So you can’t access anything you’ve paid for.

  • New version broken

    Terrible new version. Takes forever to load. Most times it fails to load at all.
