Khan Academy offers offline learning with a new app for iPads. The app has a time-syncing feature between devices, which allows users to access the lectures without an internet connection. This gives iPad owners the ability to download lessons and then use them where internet access is sparse, for instance on road trips or on subway commutes. In keeping with the spirit of the original website, the iPad app for the Khan Academy is free. As reported by the Washington Post, the new app already ranks sixth in popularity of free apps at the iTunes store.
