What Users Really Think About Codecademy Go

Limited functionality and lack of integration with web platform

"The app is just a hyperlink to the website."

"I can’t access my courses on the app."

I’m not a fan of teaching methods like give the wrong answer to make an error. This reinforces mistakes, it’s better to request the right answer, then ask the user to make the mistake if you want to teach what to look for.

Where's the course content? It sent me to a browser to explore courses. Then, when I selected one, a pop-up message tried to send me back to the app, but the course was not there. It had random courses. I selected one, but it was just the outline. I regret buying this subscription!

I like the UX and UI, it’s great, but I’m trying to get through some hacking and security courses and it’s super buggy. It won’t let me get progress. Might have to look elsewhere.

They don’t tell you app is PRICED $18 and also didn’t let me get the benefits of my paid subscription for Codecademy. Also dumb app and didn’t have any practice material for the career path I am enrolled and participating in.

Forces an AI assistant that is slow and bad at it’s purpose. I don’t want to argue with a stupid clanker. Just shut up.

Classic case of over promise under deliver. But what pisses me off is that it’s impossible to delete you account once you make it. It puts you on an infinite loop if try to delete your account.

When I joined I said I wanna be a game dev. I clicked the beginner friendly course and it’s throwing acronyms in my face I’ve never heard of. You have to teach what these acronyms are before trying to have me solve what they are (in dummy terms)

lets you review flashcards and do some quizzes, which is fine. what i really was hoping for was the ability to use workspaces and access video content / lectures, so it's just kind of... light, as far as content and usage goes.
