Great video.

With the ability to download lectures for offline viewing this app is great. You can also stream courses from within the app and the app notes what lecture you are up to as well as the part of the lecture you are up to. The course book reader is fine except it doesn't have chapters book marked meaning you have to scroll through each time you want to review it.

No variable speed play

I love the great courses. But this app is not useful to me because I listen to lectures at double speed.

Great Courses App

It's great to have an app so I can watch my Great Courses on my iPad. I enjoy the last few courses this way. And there's the fly in the ointment. I've purchased many courses on CD's over the years. It would be lovely to have the option to have them on the app. I'd be willing to pay a fee for that, say, about half or less of the sale price. I've paid for them once, of course, but would not mind paying a small fee to have these courses available to view online.

Great Courses

I've been a Great Courses fan for close to 15 years and snow my kids are even starting to enjoy some of the lectures. Many a long commute have been bearable thanks to the lectures. The app works great and I definitely recommend the Great Courses.

Excellent source of information.

I have really enjoyed most of these courses. The professors are knowledgeable and very capable of sharing their knowledge well. The app works mostly well. Flexible ways to use from downloading to phone and iPad to discs for TV for better viewing of videos.

The download cloud button is too small

Excellent app but: trying to download often toggles the description and takes several attempts.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
