Essential training aid for practical martial arts. Some fantastic content for solo practice, especially relevant at the moment. Plus the ability to network with the like-minded

Great app for those in the Practical Karate community. Kudos to Iain and the Autocode team for constantly bringing new content every week. More than worth the asking price. I only deduct one star because of some minor bugs that occasionally happen when playing videos and for lack of Chromecast support: It would be fantastic to cast the videos of the drills and bunkai to a TV in the dojo in order to follow during training instead of watching in a tiny phone screen, and casting the screen from the phone is not the best solution.

This is probably a brilliant app, if his YouTube videos are anything to go by. However, you have to subscribe for almost everything. Which is fine, though the frequency of the subscription isn't communicated. And you can only pay in dollars, I'd like to pay in pounds and pence. Google Pay would be a great option to have too.

Ok, but If you're going to get the monthly subscription then go for it, it looks to have a massive amount of content though I had trouble logging in during the trial period. However, a big problem I found is that the notification sounds like your phone is ringing, except you can't figure out where is coming from, and it doesn't stop even if you close all the apps. I eventually figured out you had to open the app and go into the notifications and only then did it stop. Not great at 1am....

Terrible app can't load it, won't run and just keeps taking me back to the login page. Would love to see the one that, but the app won't let me. Waste of time, sorry Iain love your work, but I hate that the app simply doesn't work. I live in NZ perhaps that's the problem
