The App works great except when you want to share any of the talks. Other than that, you can download any talk in 3 different video qualities for offline use, and each talk usually comes with different subtitle language options. You can browse talks by speaker, subject and save your favorite talks to your own Favorites list. It's easy to find interesting talks from important figures in different areas, including science, history, philosophy and education.

I love TED Talks but the app has something wrong with it. I've updated my software, restarted my phone and still have the same issues. Whenever I watch a video, it will randomly pause. This happens when I'm both watching videos from the app and when I turn my screen off. It doesn't pause the video right away after I shut my screen off but it always seems to pause when the video is nearing the end or the middle. Now when I'm watching a video, none of the buttons work. Like to save or share.

I am big fan of TED and their content. I needed the app because TED stopped video podcasts rss feed and this seemed like the intended alternative ... and it is not. Managing the videos basically does not work, menu functions do not do anything, app hangs often.
