The website is fantastic, but the app is lacking. I love khan academy, but the app when reading in the physics, biology, and chemistry posts the text gets microscopic. The best example is the acceleration post after the acceleration video. The formulas, even with a magnifying glass are not readable. The other thing is, once you watch a video the next video is not part of that videos options at the bottom. So you have to go back to the topic videos list... after watching probably 300 videos on my iPhone, it is old. Or just add in an auto play feature for each subsection. I love what you have doe for education and for me.

Hi Laura Borate, thanks for the feedback! When you say the ios app, I take it you mean the mobile app, and not the ios app for the iPad? There is only so much you can do with the smaller screen, unless additional features are added. Khan Academy hasn't gone down that path yet.

When you say the acceleration post after the acceleration video, do you mean https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/one-dimensional-motion/acceleration-tutorial/a/acceleration-article, and the large formula under What's the formula for acceleration, or the smaller formula throughout the article?

I can't speak for Laura, but I agree. In my experience with the iOS app (for the iPhone), formulae such as under "What is the formula for acceleration?" would literally require a magnifying lens, which itself wouldn't be a problem if one could zoom in on the smaller text. I have a feeling it's a coding issue that makes the text smaller when it's obviously meant to be larger.
