Utterly Brilliant…

I don’t normally leave reviews but this app is absolutely incredible provided you use it in the correct way; as a knowledge maintainer and perhaps booster.Learn your stuff (hopefully from your teacher but often) from the Bitesize website and use the app as a booster and together they make a wonderful learning aid, especially for people with busy lives who are often short of time.A more in depth quiz with questions a little more challenging (I.e. not multiple choice) would be nice in conjunction with the current quizzes, but there’s always room for improvement and all in all a great app.

Hi Louis,Thank you so much for this amazing feedback - it makes us happy to know you're such a massive fan of the app! We're always looking at ways to improve so we will definitely look into how we can make the quizzes a bit more challenging and varied - it's been on our list for a while!Thanks again!The Bitesize App Team

3-4 stars good for revision but some courses missing

I downloaded this app a while ago to catch up on my gcse work because I've missed school and the app helped me in ways. However when i changed gcse music to gcse food and nutrition i realised that the course for gcse food and nutrition wasn't there for me. And the app overall probably just me but i found it kind of difficult to work around like there was lots to focus on and i was struggling to find my way around it. But the app is good and it does help when needed but it feels incomplete for me as I'm missing a gcse from this. Overall the app is well made and the revision stuff given is good but there are some missing and i would like to see them being added and the app for me is okay to get around but i would also like to see a little opening or guide to it. And i know everyone has there differences and people may agree or disagree. And if this ends up being read i would appreciate a response to see and hear your input to my review. Thank you

Good app but can be glitchy

The app is good due to it having most of the subjects however I don’t seem to find a GCSE sociology section while looking Wales or English GCSE subjects in the app but is on the website . This isn’t as big of a deal but I do need it for some help on the go before I do tests and such . The app itself is good and is quite detailed however my loading screen glitches out a lot and I had to refill out my exam board and my subjects then it just does it again . I’ve re-downloaded it many times and it sometimes doesn’t work but it sometimes does . Depends weather it likes me that day or not lol .Anyway , good app for revision since there is quite a lot of detail in both flash cards and the whole textbooks type-esk and I’ll recommend it

Lack of search function

This app is great for having access to the clear explanations of the Bitesize website but without needing internet connection.There is a major issue that I have found. If I want to find an explanation on a specific process, I have to go into that subject then try to work out which sub-topic it comes under. I then have to search through all of the pages on that sub-topic to be able to find what I’m looking for. I have found that I am ending up just waiting until I can connect to Wi-Fi to use google to find a page on the website or often just giving up and using a different source. It would be excellent if there could be a search bar to search within each subject, making finding the required information quick and easy.

We've been making improvements and fixing bugs.
