User Reviews

Revel on iOS shows promise with mobile convenience, a modern UI, and access to courses and the text. However, recurring crashes, unreliable audio playback, portrait/rotation and layout issues, and mobile quiz and highlighting problems hamper usability. Content sometimes loads blank or won’t advance, and syncing and progress tracking are inconsistent. Users consistently note the app is often unusable for reading or testing, despite being easier than the browser in some cases.
Pros
  • Convenience of using Revel on iPad/tablet vs laptop or browser.
  • Content and courses accessible after login (courses showing up).
  • Modern user interface reported by users.
  • Ability to read and listen to audio text within the app.
  • Generally more user-friendly than the browser version in at least some reviews.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes during reading, quizzes, or navigation, making the app unreliable.
  • Unreliable audio playback (skipping, not playing, or crashing).
  • Orientation and layout issues (portrait mode missing or fixed orientation; landscape-only on iPad).
  • Quizzes not accessible on mobile and progress syncing/updates failing (stuck percentages).
  • Highlighting/annotation problems (pop-ups blocking, highlights disappearing, cross-paragraph highlighting not supported).

No matter what button I push or how many times, they won’t work. This is extremely frustration as I work on school work both at home and while I’m working, I don’t have time to just wait for it to randomly work. It will occasionally work and then I better hope my phone doesn’t turn off or I’ll have to wait another who knows how long for it to work again.

I find it infuriating that I cannot alter the orientation of the screen, only horizontal orientation is available. The content loads but often doesn’t load the questions that are assigned. At least it’s more user friendly than using the browser version.

If I use this on anything other than a web browser I have to search for 5-10 minutes to find the textbook. If I want to take quizzes it’s great, but when this is the only option for my textbook I’m left frustrated. If I want to change the orientation it starts only taking up a portion of my screen and I can’t do anything about it. Every time I open the app it asks if I have an account and if I want notifications, I can’t alter notifications to actually help me remember to do assignments either. Nothing about this app feels intuitive and I am left spending money to not use a textbook essentially.
