study.com App - Mamasaphire - 09-14-2016
I may be one of the last individuals on the forum to discover this, but study.com has a pretty decent little app that you can get to from their website.
I think I almost like using the app on my tablet/android phone more than the website on my laptop for studying. I especially like that it is possible to knock out a quiz when I have an extra 10 minutes here or there without having to drag my computer around (halftime at a kids' sports game? perfect time for a lesson or two). It looks like it is also possible to download videos/transcripts to watch when mobile data is not available, but I don't know if quizzes can be taken offline or not.
Anyone have additional tips to share when using the App?

I've been using it too! I love it! Nice to do when you have to wait for a few minutes! Every spare moment, I'm watching a video and a quiz! I've downloaded the videos and they were great on the train when reception sucked. I couldn't do the video's however. But I watched a lot of videos! LOVE IT!
I don't think it's been there for very long. A month maybe?

Good to know, and such a user-friendly way to learn. Portability/flexibility is definitely a huge plus!
I've even pulled up some bio videos for my kids on topics they are covering in workbooks. Just wish the "basic" membership was more affordable, I can see becoming reliant on using it for homeschooling multiple topics.
