TOP REVIEWS FROM IOS APP DEVELOPMENT BASICS
by LOct 12, 2016
Better than the previous course in terms of structure and content, still think more practice exercises for each week would be beneficial beyond just copying the video.
by MWMay 10, 2016
Excellent course but allow ample time for the assignment as it is quite challenging, or at least it was for me. I am looking forward to doing the next module.
by ACJul 6, 2016
This course is the very basics of interface building in iOS, requires lots of self-study as the lectures do not dig deep enough and prior knowledge of Swift.
by NHNov 4, 2016
Thank you for your course. After this course I handled more knowledge about UI in Xcode and interactive between element UI. Best regard.

Frequently Asked Questions
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
- The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
- The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
