Brick Voiceovers – Mobile Apps

Brick voiceover was previously released on our web app and is now being made available on both of our mobile platforms. The following documentation uses iOS screen captures to explain the functionality; however, the apps do differ slightly.

Brick Popup Sheet – ‘Listen’ and ‘Add to Queue’ buttons

Two new buttons have been added to the Brick popup sheet.

To view the options on the brick popup sheet, click on the three dots at the bottom of the brick.

Brick View

When clicked, the brick is read aloud to the user using a generated voiceover file.

Add to Queue

When clicked, the brick is added to a queue so customers can listen to bricks one after the other.

Note: Audio will continue to play wherever you are in the app, except for when a ScholarRx video is being played, then the brick audio stops. When you return to the brick, simply tap 'Play' to resume listening where you left off.

Brick View – Listen Button

When viewing a brick, there is now a ‘Listen’ button displayed at the top.

You may access the brick audio player modal a few different ways:
