4 ★ Must have app and content! I'd like to report an annoying bug. After playing and stopping a lecture, everytime a phone call, or any other media event will happen (such as playing audio notes, videos or music) the Ayn Rand University app will automatically continue playing the last played lecture. I would understand that happened while in the process of listening to a lacture, but the app continues playing the last lecture even if I wasn't using the app. It continues regardless of usage state.
5 ★ Amazing app. I loved all the courses but it was very inconvenient to listen to it the phone via the browser, but this app solves that problem. That said, I would love to have the option of listening while using another app. Currently, the audio stops playing in the background after a few minutes of leaving it. Other then that, it's great.
5 ★ It's awesome!!! The issues I am having: -the application resets when the charging status changes, both ways; -though the current time is retained between iterations of play in a single lecture(when the application has reset between those) , after a second or two in which it is resumed, the lecture starts over from the beginning; -Downloaded courses cannot be accessed without an internet connection to first load menu data.
2 ★ There is a lot of great content available on this app. However, the app itself is frustrating at best. It frequently restarts lectures and forgets where you left off, often problematic with loading content, user interface has some major flaws, the list goes on. ARI, please get rid of the app and make the content available directly through YouTube.
5 ★ This has been a highly anticipated release. It's great to see that 'tracks' or topics are already introduced, as well as courses by instructor. I can also quickly view via the app my downloaded courses, which I previously managed in offline folders. I'm hoping this will allow me to listen to downloaded courses and mark the completion of that course. The only thing I don't see is a filter to exclude the courses I've completed from the greater list.
4 ★ Good content but app has many problems. 1. The scroll on videos is too hard to move. Increase the sensitivity and increases the touch size of the circle. 2. Sometimes the video stops when my device is locked and I have to go back on my phone to unpause the video. Bluetooth controls don't work when this happens. 3. Suggestion: Include a scrolling transcript of the videos that you can use for notes!
5 ★ This app contains the courses which you will not find anywhere except here. Various themes are valuable for those who have knowledge in Objectivism as an additional material, and those who are beginning their incredibly exciting journey. You can download or hear the courses online, so you will be in touch with the radiant thoughts and ideas, which are not detached from reality and that are "somewhere", but which are in mutual relations with reality and every day of your life.
2 ★ The app has great potential, but is marred by a serious bug: when I try to listen to a course via headphones or via Bluetooth in my car, the sound starts to crack up and disappear. When I reactivate the mobile screen, the sound returns to normal. This bug makes the app useless for me.
5 ★ In the recent update I can now enjoy various lectures from the comfort of other apps. I used to only listen to these lectures while I drove because the app would only work in the background for about a minute, but not any more. I love it even more now, I recommend highly for any Objectivist or lover of Rand.
4 ★ Content is life changing but the app itself has issues. Biggest peeve is that the app does not consistently save my listening progress. It does not open the last item that I listened to, and it often loses my place in the lecture. - no play button from lock screen.
5 ★ This is a fabulous resource for studying Objectivism on the go. I set up lectures behind my navigation app for my commutes, and the wealth of lectures and courses on here is truly amazing. The app is very sleek, easy to navigate, and keeps track of where you leave off. Take advantage of this!
1 ★ Good content. Worst app ever. If i exit it does not remember where I stopped listening. If I pause and keep it in the bacground it starts playing all by itself if the phone rings, embarrasing me in a quet office at work. Freezes. Cannot download or get it to play anyting today. Update: Uninstalled to keep my sanity.
3 ★ This app has been very buggy for me. I have been unable to use the download feature and only fixed it when I read what another reviewer did to fix it( I turned off battery optimization) but now I am unable to download anything. This app works fine whenever I have wifi but is basically unusable when I don't.
4 ★ Great app, gave 4 instead of 5 stars because of background audio playing issue, which I did find a fix for. For others having this issue go into App Info > Battery > Optimise Battery Usage > change the app to being "not optimised". Awkward, but this fixed the bug for me.
5 ★ It's a great improvement from the Campus since now you can listen to the course with your cell phone blocked. Plus,you can listen offline, downloaded content. It's amazing to have all this knowledge here with this easy to use app. I love it !
