Have been developing online learning since 1989. Most recent projects include developing online courses for health professions such as nurses, dental assistants, hearing practitioners and health care aides. Courses are hosted on client's websites or on our Moodle sites.

We operate a public nursing education website that has hundreds of quizzes, games and apps. We custom program our apps (versions of our quizzes) for iOS (iPhone / iPad), Android phones and tablets, and Amazon Kindle. Our apps are available from the Apple Store, Google Play and Amazon. The use of the apps represents only a small portion of total use of our educational nursing resources. Also, the apps require considerable time, money and effort to develop, post and maintain.

Captivate 2019 has the option to directly publish apps for Apple and Android. My question is … does anyone use this app application for their e-learning projects? Considering that Captivate publishes responsive output, does the need for app versions even exist anymore? The only advantage of an app that I think of is that users can download it to their device and use it offline. Other than that, I don’t really see any other significant benefits that justify the time and money required to produce and support them.

I need to make a decision soon as to whether to continue offering our nursing educational apps. So the experiences and views of others would be helpful and appreciated.

Thanks,
Russ
