Talks are amazing, the app... Not quite yet

Drmyers29

This app has a lot of potential but needs work. The saved for later and liked talks un-save and un-like within a few seconds. When you select like the related talks change. Many bugs. Using iPad Pro 12.9 with updated OS.

Terribly poor update

Missy_233

The latest update has quite a few bugs. I am unable to add any videos to the “liked videos” or to “my list”. And I noticed all my previously liked videos do not show in the liked videos list.

Great app but the video doesn't play, only the sound comes!!!!

Haaaaleeeey;)

I love this app so much but there's a problem with playing the videos. The video stops after a few seconds and only the audio plays. I wonder why!!!

Overall great app

Tasseled

Great content, great app EXCEPT that talks are not actually saved to My Talks when that option is selected. There are some talks saved from before I created an account but now I can’t add anymore.

I’ll find myself bing watching

I can download, take talks with me offline. I have iPhone 7.

Updated Review: Still broken and needs more work

Apple devices is not the place to have a terrible user experience. - UX / UI: Mark after a video “watched” after it has been played so that I know which videos I’ve seen. Grey or mask the thumbnail in search results like YouTube does for previously viewed videos. Sorry, the “History” tab does not help. I cannot tell which videos I’ve previously watched (that I previously added to my favorites) without going to history tab. This is ok if you only have 5 or 10, but falls apart when you have 20 or more. - UX: Persistence. Keep my place if I watch part of a video and return to finish on *ANY* device. If I start a video and then watch another video it doesn’t keep the place of either video. #Awful. - UX: Continuity. I often start to watch a video on my iPad and switch to my iPhone. Same for a web browser on a macOS. The last spot needs to be retained like it is on Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video and dozens of others. - UX: Bug. Picture in picture doesn’t *resize* to full screen when you use the 4 finger gestures to swipe back to TED from another app. You have a black screen with TED running in the corner. UX: Bug. Downloaded video wouldn’t play from iPad to Apple TV until I deleted the local download. UX: Bug. Captions turn off randomly. Captions needed to be turned back on multiple times while I was using AirPlay to play from iPad to Apple TV. These are basic video player items from 10 years ago. Either invest in a quality native iOS app experience or save your money and force everyone to use the website if you’re going to have a substandard user experience. #FAILURE #Bugs #ShowUpOrGiveUp #Shameful

Great app!

This is great, now I can listen and sometimes even watch, when I’m not driving, to the talks. The app works great and the quality is amazing!

Can’t enable wireless data

lwl525

I love TED, but this App the latest version is not working with the latest IOS 11.3.1. The problem is in the system setting it has no way to enable wireless data for the app, which means no internet for this app. Please fix it ASAP

The Like button

Sarcasm 8367

I rated this app 4 stars because it is easy to find videos you like and very easy to navigate the app in itself. However the like button doesn’t seem to work, no matter what I do it will not save the video as liked. The downloading has worked for me (I’ve only downloaded audio) so far. If they could just fix that little bug in my opinion it would be a five star app.

Need to fix

I love this app and can definitely get lost in it but with the newest update Ive noticed that things I previously had saved are no longer there. If i like something then go to my talks its not there.
