Reviews
Sound doesn't work

I am giving this 4 stars because I have seen his tutorials before in HMH textbooks. It would get 5 stars except the price is too high. I assume that the sound issue will be fixed pronto, since the app was just released.
$$$$$

You can't do anything without paying! When you begin, you see a list of 100 or so different lessons that each cost $3-5
Good, not great!

I think this app is well done and a good idea. The part where they are messing up like other reviewers are saying is the pricing. This app has been done before but in a different way. This app is very similar to an app called Video Calculus. The app has the same guy Professor burger giving lectures on math. This app only deals with Calculus though. The difference between the Two apps is the pricing. The video Calculus app offers a one time price for all the material for that course. Not separate prices for each section. I wish the developers of this application would price their app more like that. I feel that having access to this content on a number of days basis is much better way of doing it, then per section. For example to have access for all the lessons of calculus would cost me $20 for the year. For this application I could only get a max of 6 sections for that price. I say buy this application if your looking for good content, but just be willing to pay the price for that content.
Excellent and Uplifting

Very good, even if you do not know English! Very clear and very uplifting (anti-dpressed) for any student (young or not) to be engaged and resolve any shortcoming(s), Thank you.

This is a very good app. I really don't get my algebra teacher so I was just looking for an app for math and I found it
This app is okay

This app requires you to pay for the lessons. I could go online and do this for free at khan academy!
Can't buy lessons

I just downloaded the app, and when I click to buy bundles nothing happens. Please fix! App is useless without lessons.
Sound Issues
nfarner
After installing this application on my iPhone, I tried to view the "How to use HMH Math On the Spot" video, however, no sound could be heard when the video was played. My phone is running iOS v5.0.1. This appears to be a nice application, but without the ability to hear the instructor, value - worthless. Is there a known fix that I have not been able to figure out?
