Frequently asked questions
Which devices does it run on?
Windows 10/11 (64-bit) and Android 8.0+. The same account works on both; progress and downloads sync between them.
Do lessons work offline?
Ones you download do. They play without a connection, and your progress records on the device, then syncs once you're back online.
What happens if the network drops during a live session?
The room is built to recover. When your connection returns, you're back at the same point in the session instead of restarting it.
Why is Android a direct APK instead of Play Store?
Updates ship without waiting on store review. The first install asks for permission to install from your browser, which is normal for direct apps.
What does protected playback mean?
Sessions are encrypted and lesson playback is bound to your trusted devices. It runs in the background; you don't do anything extra.
