Kanopy is praised by users as a film and documentary archive enabling users to learn about the world at home. However, there is a problem frustrating users for years. That is, when users accidentally press the wrong button during the watching of a film, they can barely fix it. The pressing of the wrong button will lead to re-rent and waste users’ credits. Therefore, the developers should seriously consider the problem of the inability to replay and help users to fix this issue so as to no longer make users waste their paid credits. Generally speaking, Kanopy is a powerful and meaningful application to support the watching of films, documentaries, and shows to simply kill time or learn new things.
