New Features

Throughout the year, we add new features to the video2brain site and apps. To make it a little easier for you to get the most out of your courses and your membership, we have compiled a list of key changes and additions below. If you have any questions, or any requests for new features that you'd like to see, we'd love to hear from you.

• Gift subscriptions: With the addition of video2brain gift certificates, you can now purchase Standard, Gold, and Platinum annual subscriptions for friends, family members, and colleagues who love to learn. You'll receive a PDF with a unique activation code and easy-to-follow instructions. Share the PDF with your lucky recipient, and they'll be able to create their own video2brain account, unlock the library, and start learning in a matter of seconds.

• Tracking What You’ve Watched: On the video2brain site you can now easily see what lessons you’ve viewed, so you can track where you are in a course. When you’ve watched a lesson on the site, a checkmark appears next to that video. You can also toggle these checkmarks on and off—if, for example, you want to mark videos you watched previously.
• Creating Bookmarks: You can now bookmark courses or lessons you want to revisit on the site by clicking the star icon on the course page, in the table of contents, or on the video page. If you want to see all your bookmarked content, just visit My Watchlist under My video2brain.
• Syncing Across Devices: Whether you log in to the site from a computer or by using one of our apps on an iPad or Android device, you’ll see that your bookmarks and information about what you’ve watched is all in sync.
• Software Icons: On any course page you’ll now find small icons representing the software used in the course. These link to a page dedicated to that topic, making it easy for you to discover related courses you might be interested in.

Find out more about these new features in this post on the v2b blog.

• Price Quotes: We added a price quote request button and form to our Solutions pages, to make it easier for businesses, schools, and other organizations to get a custom quote from our sales folks.

• New Android App: The video2brain Android app is now available at the Google Play store, free of charge. The feature-rich app lets you can watch any course in the video2brain library on your Android device and makes tracking your training a breeze.
• iPad App Update: Version 2.1 of the video2brain iPad app features improvements to playback and adds an important new cloud-oriented feature—the ability to sync training across devices.

Learn more details about our apps in this announcement on our blog and on our iPad app and Android app pages.

• Notifications: This new feature lets you find out when courses of interest to you are released. Notification switches now appear on author, category, and topic pages. Log in to video2brain, flip a switch, and when new courses come out by that author or on that topic, we’ll drop you a note. For details see our blog post on the Notifications feature.

• iPad App Update: The latest version of the video2brain iPad app features navigation improvements, a full-screen mode, and the ability to download courses for offline training. For more see our blog announcement.

• Global Streaming:  To improve your experience watching video2brain courses—from wherever you may be—we now stream from more than a dozen high-speed servers around the globe. You can find more on the new video2brain global streaming service on our blog.

• New Subscription Service: The new English-language video2brain subscription service options give you 24/7 access to our entire training library for a great price. Subscriptions are available on a monthly or annual basis. All plans give you streaming access to all our courses; Gold and Platinum plans add access to project files and downloadable courses. You can find out all about video2brain subscription offerings on our Subscriptions page.
