Teachable Online Courses 4+

Every presenter in Teachable You had incredible content to share and their own style of engaging and answering the questions. I absolutely love how intimate the videos felt, even though I usually ended up watching all of them after they were recorded. I played them all to the end so I could hear every question get answered because the content was so valuable.

I signed up just before I had to stop working due to the pandemic (hairstylist) so unfortunately I couldn’t continue the subscription. I did pay for 2 months but even though I wasn’t able to launch at this time, the education I received was worth every penny and I fee like I’m better prepared for when I do launch and I have the tools to get my blue print in place. Thank you so much!

First, my review from July 2022 has been deleted. That’s just sad. (And now so has my review from Dec 2022)

Second, nothing has changed, so Teachable appears to be living up to what support shared with me via email in July 2022: “Our Product and Engineering teams are aware of the outstanding issues with the app and they've been keeping track of reports (like yours) as they come in. They've spent a considerable amount of time going through all the feedback and weighing all the options. We want to be fully open with you that we've decided to shift focus away from the iOS app to other priorities. Based on customer feedback, we've concluded it's best to devote our energies toward improving the core Teachable product and features. Following that, there are no current plans to update the iOS app and we don't anticipate being able to fix any outstanding issues at this time. I know that's not the news you were hoping to hear and we apologize for the disappointment.”

So there you have it. If logging in on your iPhone or iPad is broken for you like it is for me, then too bad so sad for you!

How great to have all the lessons of a course I’ve enrolled-in, in one spot! Much easier than opening an Internet browser, going to my instructor’s website, and entering my user name and password. Here, you just open the app and the lessons are right there in an easily navigable directory, including past lessons. The two weak spots all relate to video playback: first, I recommend a “back/forward 15 seconds” feature, like on Podcast apps and most movie streaming apps, so we can easily find the exact spot we want when rewinding/fast-forwarding. Second and thirdly, how about a “full screen” mode and a view which becomes horizontal when I rotate my smartphone that way, rather than being stuck with a vertical view regardless of my phone’s orientation? (Other features which the “streaming video” apps already have.) All in all, a very handy app, and one I appreciate. Its convenience and ease-of-use motivates me to be a disciplined student and continue my scheduled course lessons, as I should.
