Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The case occurred to me when connected to airplane wifi which allowed only messaging. The phone detected it was connected to the internet and tried to call home. While the app was spinning I could not access a course that was downloaded.

This was with an Android Device.

App version 1.0.0 from a custom APK.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like the app to prioritize access to downloaded content when I'm connected to a slow or potentially unusable connection.

Describe alternatives you've considered
None

Additional context
None
