Hot new free accounting app: A review of Qualt

Leighann Morris for Accounting Bites UK writes: Qualt, sister company of Home Learning College, has developed a brand new free app that gives you an easy introduction to accounting. It’s like a taster with information, quizzes, dictionaries of terms and course options, based on the same syllabus as the AAT Access course, the first level of study for Accounting Technicians. I downloaded it to see what it was all about and it turns out it’s well worth getting.
Here are some screen shots of me navigating the app on iOS myself:

 You can study 4 courses based on the AAT Access syllabus at your own pace. Above is the home screen, which you can return to any time. As you can see my profile is at the top; the app matches your profile to Facebook- but don’t worry it doesn’t post anything, it just means you don’t have to fill out your details.

Modules are really easily laid out, with readable chunks of information and images to accompany the writing. It’s also super easy to click through the information- it’s in a slideshow kind of format.

Above is a screen shot of the initial skills test, which you simply answer “agree” or “disagree”.

The best part of the app is the dictionary of terms. Normally you’d have to write these out on post it notes. Major points here.

 Quizzes test you on your knowledge as you progress, which is a fun way to learn.

After completing the course, if you want to progress towards a recognised Accounting Technician qualification that provides you with the skills you need to work in an accounting job or set-up business for yourself, you can click on the “Take your Career Further” button to learn more.
Overall, the Qualt app is easy to use, enjoyable to navigate, beautifully laid out, and informative. 5/5 stars!
