Disappointed with the choices of subject matter recently. Not always relevant to me.

Hi Bob, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and I'm sad to hear that the recent subject matter has not been relevant to your needs. With many thousands of members, it's always difficult to get the balance right, in fact, it's impossible to keep everyone 100% happy 100% of the time. Hopefully the recent tutorials on iOS 17, iPadOS 17 and watchOS 10 go some way to address that. The macOS Sonoma show will be out later this week. Thanks for being a member and I hope the future mix of show topics address your needs better. Don't forget you can always make suggestions - the link is in the footer of the website or use this direct link https://www.screencastsonline.com/suggestions/

Absolutely love the tutorials

Absolutely love the tutorials. I do not watch every one as they are varied and sometimes outside my interest, but that coverage by a growing team of 'tutors' really is a plus and you can be sure that what you see on ScreenCastsOnline will help you with the majority of your Mac-related training and queries. Even with software or subjects you think you know well, you will be amazed at the unexpected, hidden gems that are taught!

Great App Choices and Excellent Overviews

Don's choice of apps to highlight are always spot on. I always learn something new, even for apps I've been using for a long time.

Hi Tom, Thanks for the kind words and 5-star review. It's incredible how much we don't know about the apps we use regularly!

Excellent guide to the features of an app.

As apps become more complex it gets harder to find ones that do what you want. Don’t waste money or time buying apps that don’t work the way you want to. With Screencasts Online I get a detailed look at apps before I commit to them. Thanks

An Outstanding Resource

ScreenCasts Online is my go-to resource for finding and learning how to use apps in the Apple ecosystem. Don has created an outstanding team that delivers consistently. They are worth every penny of their subscription fee (and probably more).

Mastering the use of key tools

Mastering the use of key tools, and having an appreciation of what tools might be available to address specific needs is far more valuable than accumulating applications that come to litter one's computer like a disorganized workbench strewn with tools that obscure the working surface itself. Screencasts online answers the need to have a general overview of what tools are available, along with a general introduction to their work interfaces. For this purpose, it remains unsurpassed. Beyond this, one great strength of Don McAllister is his humility, and his ability to assemble a team of quality contributors who use Mac OS, iOS, iPadOS and Watch OS for different purposes. One person alone simply cannot be aware of all the ways owners of these tech devices use them. So when you subscribe to ScreenCasts Online, you are hiring a team of experts. You don't need all the advice they have to offer, but if just 5 ~ 10% of the content is relevant to what you want to accomplish, a subcription is a bargain, ranking up their in return-on-investment with the SetApp suite that provides best-of-breed downloadable utilities for every purpose. Don't create a jumbled collection of apps and utilities; invest in access to the advice and judgment you need to make working on your device a pleasure and an epiphany.

ScreenCastsOnline is my app lifeline

Use it or lose it, as the saying goes, and I often need to refresh my knowledge of an app that I haven't used for a while. No problem! I know that after an enjoyable time watching the relevant ScreenCastsOnline tutorials, my expertise will be fully restored. Thank goodness for ScreenCastsOnline - you're my app lifeline.

Excellent! Thanks Phil. Just so you know, even as the creator of some of the tutorials, I also have to go back occasionally to refresh my memory on apps that I don't use regularly. One of the benefits of a ScreenCastsOnline membership :)
