Pluralsight: Learn Tech Skills App Reviews

206 add

Great update

A nice update that now shows more clearly what courses have and have not been downloaded. Would really loved to have seen the picture in picture feature added as well. Hopefully next update will include that for the video playback.

New app improved a lot

This new and improved app is really good and thanks for giving us option of viewing videos on both portrait and landscape modes.

Great upgrade

Great update. Downloading had become a lot simpler!

Much improved

Still got quite a ways to go, but the vast improvement and update deserves credit. 5 stars if you guys keep up the great progress!

Much improved...but more to go

Good color discrimination, slightly better download control, but still lacking the similar capabilities of desktop viewing (namely the broad 6 or 7 categories to discover new topics).

Where is course download button??

The download button is not available on my iPad or iPhone 6 app. I am having no luck finding "download", "make offline", or instructions on downloading course via the mobile app. I am really looking forward to this working as I poor reception at work and the gym.

Great update

I was not a fan of rhe major rewrite, from the ground up version, not because it didnt look nice, but because it made offline viewing completely unusable. Since this is my primary way of consuming content, i had basically stopped watching. :( I see INSTANT improvement, having just downloased the update. Great job, thx for listening to the feedback from customers.

Auto play course when just trying to download

Try to download course at work with faster bandwidth and it stubbornly auto plays which is annoying and embarrassing at work Do not auto play Let me click the start course button myself Im not stupid

Digital Tutor Users - Dont Bother

Sadly, the apps username/password database is not calling to the same server list as the website. So my while my digital tutors subscription works fine on the pluralsight website, it does not work to log in to this app. Sadly, the digital tutors app doesnt appear to be updated any longer, so you are forced to use the pluralsight website, which is definitely not iPad/safari optimized...or continue to only have access to older videos on the digital tutors app.

Loses offline progress

The previous version locked up a lot while watching offline content, and this version fixed that. Cool. But now it seems to be losing the fact that I watched a bunch of videos offline, and when I go back online, those sections still show as “unwatched”.

I voted 2 stars few month ago but now im giving it 4

I voted 2 stars few month ago but now im giving it 4. This app really became better. The only reason why I didnt give it 5 is missing playback speed options. There is no 1.1 1.2 1.3 or 1.4 speed options like it is in web site. I hope Pluralsight will add these speed options.

App crashes

App crashes everytime i try to search . This is probably from the new update, please fix.

Videos dont play

Downloaded a course but none of the videos that downloaded off of wifi play. Had to delete them and then re-download at home.

Downloaded Content Gone. App is shameful.

All my downloaded content... gone with this update. Come on guys, get your act together! You had the chance to rebuild the app from scratch and cant nail down a core feature? If you guys were doing this for the first time, I could forgive. But youve had the chance to re-release, and had multiple updates after... and still! And youve had an app for years! And Pluralsight is a multi-million dollar company... no mom-and-pop store! And last but not least, youre responsible for training experts in this kind of stuff, from iOS development to quality assurance, so guys should be the last people with these issues. Disgraceful.

Loses offline viewing progress

Downloading content works fine now, but the app consistently forgets the progress Ive made while viewing downloaded content. Courses still appear as not viewed, even though Ive spent hours watching them. Thats pretty frustrating.

Latest update broke it all

Things were fine until the most recent update. I am starting to get blank screen issue when progressing along course and you go from one section (topic) to another. Only solution is to kill the app and launch it again and directly play the desired section, which is a pain in the neck.

Good content AirPlay is broken

The latest update broke AirPlay support. It disconnects every couple of minutes now

Horrible playback, horrible auto start

The only way to learn from this company is in a web browser. This app has always sucked. I cancelled my membership over it. How do you have a company that makes videos, yet cannot make a video player? Even after waiting months and signing back up, exact same issues, just redesigned. Stop wasting your customers money and start meeting minimum expectations.

A bit buggy, to be sure.

Im having the same issues reported by others. Theres the black screen that just hangs between videos every once in a while. I cant tell if its the app or a bad video, but thats just it; you cant tell. Its also unable to track my offline viewing progress. Going back online causes the app to sync with the online progress and erases the offline progress. And then theres the times my iPad crashes while closing the app. Its not often, but it doesnt have to be. Its not a happy time.

Downloaded Courses Gone

All my downloaded courses have disappeared. Items I watched arent syncing and showing as watched on website.
