Back To The Future…video viewing on the justhands-on.tv website

Two years ago, we added some technology that changed the viewing environment (dark background) and made justhands-on.tv available via App.
Subscribers shared that they liked the new viewing environment. Loved the videos. However, this new technology created a lot of sign in issues. The sign in issues proved too big of a problem for too many of you, so we are fixing things. Or more accurately, we are going back to our previous, tried and trusted system.
There will be no change in your subscription privileges. You continue to get unlimited access to 2,000+ videos of Britain’s finest tutors at www.justhands-on.tv. The App has been discontinued. Those of you who were using the App can access everything via the website.
