Poorly designed app
09/24/2024

bunnybear2021
Great idea to have an app, but the search function is hard to use and doesn’t seem to filter results well, and it seems to be impossible to access live webcasts from directly within the app. I sign in a few minutes before a live cast and instead of getting a “watch now” button or anything similar, I get a button telling me “register” or “update registration” which is not necessary as I’ve been registered for weeks. I’ve hunted through menus and been several minutes late to a couple live programs because there seems to be no way to start the live cast from in the app. I literally have to log into and open the PLI website in Safari on my iPhone, start the live cast there, and then it opens in the app, which defeats half the purpose of having an app. Also had one experience where the app repeatedly dropped connection/ stalled the livestream so I had to watch it on my phone in Safari browser which ran fine. Busy attorneys don’t have time to be going through all this hassle just to connect to a live cast.

Great Content; Bad App

PLI has fantastic content and the concept of being able to earn CLE credits from my phone is really appealing. However, the app does not work very well. It says it saves where you left off but it definitely does not. For instance, yesterday I finished a program and started a new one. Today, it takes me back to the middle of the program I finished yesterday. So do I now I have to rewatch everything in order flying get credits? It does this all the time. Super annoying.

Been using this app for years and the latest update has a brand new look and features that recommend programs to me. Much improved search tools and the video player experience was overhauled as well. Looking forward to trying a live streaming program since the old app didn’t have that.

Constantly having to re sign-in and start video over

I’m a power user of this app and use it almost every day on my commutes and in the past I would only need to “sign in” once every month or so and now it’s almost every time I use it. So if I use it for my morning commute I’ll need to sign in again for my evening commute. The worst part is that every single time it requires me to re sign in it will lose my spot in my the video and make me start from the beginning. It’s so frustrating that I almost want to stop using PLI app altogether until it’s fixed.
