Great content, terrible app

Content: Great. Beginner to Intermediate course is amazing!! Funny, informative, and practical! The App: Buggy. Often I can’t get videos to play. So, I use the website, which is leagues ahead of the app. They released a new web dashboard that still looks a touch dated, but is better. I think that ChinesePod could really take ahold of the market again if they invested a lot more into UI & UX.

Not functional

I opened the app, logged in, tapped play on a video and it showed me a black screen. I quit the app and tried again, same result.

Managed to get worse

How could this business screw itself anymore? I leaned how to speak Chinese from this podcast in 2012. This is just so sad. They threw away all this great content. The app doesn't function. I want a refund.

Great Content Terrible App

I have the same feedback of the last guy. The lessons are amazing, but the app is just awful. I really want to subscribe, but the app is unusable. -videos won’t close once you open them -lessons are organized in too many categories, pretty messy - I just want to listen to the lessons, but the feature for doing that are really low quality These are just some examples. Overall, the app needs a lot of work in all aspects- design, navigation, organization, functionality. Such a shame because the lessons themselves are so good.

Stay far away

I tried Chinese Pod for a bit. The lessons were average and the app was clunky. Canceled it, the subscription was removed from my list, and the option to cancel was removed from my app. Yet for a whole year afterwards, they continued to charge me. I wrote to customer service explaining the issue to them and asked for a refund of the $359.88 that they overcharged, since it is clearly a problem on their end that didn’t register the canceled subscription. After over 10 emails over the course of a year explaining and re-explaining, they refuse to refund me and keep offering coupons for future service. I have no choice but to contest it as fraud with my credit card. STAY AWAY.

Update - works OK when I turn off VPN

That said, it would be nice if the app handled connectivity errors a little more smoothly.

Doesn’t support google/Facebook login

I wanted to try this app to start learning Chinese, so I logged in with Google on the website and signed up for a free trial. Low and behold, the app doesn’t even support the way I logged in! The web interface supports mobile pretty well, so honestly, you guys shouldn’t even have an app if it’s going to be completely inferior to the website.
