Review summary

Users generally praise Alison for free, easy-to-use learning with a wide range of topics and guidance to certification. However, repeated issues appear across reviews: intrusive ads that disrupt learning and sometimes lock the app; login/registration problems and account access frustration; progress tracking and sync failures that erase or fail to record hours of study; occasional UI/UX glitches like tiny text and blank settings. If fixed, the app could be a strong, accessible tool for skill-building and certification.
Pros
  • Free access to knowledge and courses
  • Easy to use and learn at your own pace
  • Helpful guidance for obtaining certificates
  • Wide range of topics with current information
  • Engaging and high-quality learning experience
Cons
  • Intrusive, persistent ads that disrupt usage and cause freezes
  • Login/registration/account access problems
  • Progress tracking/sync failures that erase or fail to record progress
  • UI/UX issues such as tiny text and occasional blank/poorly rendered screens

2026-06-21 Lo***** This program is amazing and easy to follow. I’ve been trying to lessen since January and now it’s June. I can say that I remember everything from each lesson if I skip a day. Unlike with other learning tools I’ve purchased. I feel like if you do the lesson 2-4 times you will grasp the info without having to use multiple sources. So many modules.

2026-06-19 st***** Too many issues: 1. They run too many ads 2. Searched for a course/ It was just someone babbling on genericly and repeating the same thing over and over. 3. They say you will be able to achieve "X" and be ready to apply what you learned. This is not the case at all. 4. You are better off going directly to a website that actually offers free use of their programs.

2026-06-19 Th***** I like the website but the ads on this app are annoying. They stay on my screen for too long without letting me exit. Last time I timed the ad and it was stuck without an x to remove from my screen for more than 4 minutes.

2026-06-14 NB***** I had a great experience completing the Diploma in Public Health course through Alison. The course content was informative, easy to follow, and covered important public health topics such as disease prevention, health promotion, environmental health, and community wellness. The lessons helped expand my knowledge and reinforced concepts that are valuable in both community health and public service settings. I appreciate the flexibility of learning at my own pace and the opportunity to earn a recognized diploma. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in public health, healthcare, or community outreach. Thank you, Alison, for making quality education accessible and affordable.

2026-06-08 Ja***** Freaking game apps advertising has gotten absolutely ridiculous! You can’t close them out because there’s no X just an open to open them. Having to restart a half dozen times is irritating just to study your courses.

2026-05-31 34***** I wanted to give the app a chance, while I appreciate it’s free, it’s completely riddled with ads, can’t navigate the app without an ad you can’t skip popping up. It’s practically unusable and I’m uninstalling.
