Tetiana Vorobiova completed this course and found the course difficulty to be very easy.
It took me a couple of hours to complete the whole course. Only videos and tests were available, since participatory segments were active for a short period of time in 2018. So no achievment certificate, but free confirmation of participation certificate is available.
All of the informational content is still there. The still active part of the course includes three sections on copywriting in app development, each containing 4-5 videos 5-10 minutes long. All videos are easy to comprehend and have some useful tips for beginners.
