Hi There, We have identified the issue with the current login system, We are working on an update which will be out soon. In the meantime, you can try installing version 1.5.2 which is working for a few users though we haven't confirmed it yet.

A quick FAQ regarding the issue: Q: Why aren't we able to log in? A: The API that we are consuming in our current application is not working anymore, We are trying to make the necessary changes to bring it up to the working state and we will push the update as soon as we fix the issue. Q: Is there any alternative way where I can download videos in the meantime? A: You can try Download 1.5.2, It works for a few users. Q: What if you guys didn't intercept the new API system of Udemy, is the project gonna die? A: NO! certainly not, We can assure you the project will continue to work the way it used to, we may have to include some extra steps in the login process like a browser login etc, you may even have to download a chrome extension.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

P.S I am working with Faisal on all upcoming versions of udler. Kudos and sorry for inconvenience.

I have released a new version v1.6.3 which includes a workaround for the login problem. The new version brings Udeler Authenticator (A chrome extension for easily authenticating a Udemy account with Udeler).

How to use Udeler Authenticator?

  1. Install the extension from here

  2. After installing/enabling the extension, open udeler desktop app, you will see a new anonymous icon on the login page. Click the icon and it will start to listen for any login requests from your chrome web browser.

  3. Open Udemy webiste on your chrome web browser and simply login to your account. Udeler app will detect the login and will let you in. If you are already logged in to Udemy, you can simply vist the website and it will still detect your account.

Use this method to download courses from Udeler for now. Meanwhile I will work on a proper fix for login.

I have released a new version v1.7.0 which should allow you to login easily using the Udemy website itself.

The new version will support all kind of accounts, be it business, google or facebook. Download, test and provide feedback.
