A few useful answers.
Is Deneb available yet?
Deneb is in development for iPhone. This page previews the planned launch product; no release date has been announced. Deck officers and cadets can request private beta access.
What works without a connection?

Is the free study track a timed trial?
No. COLREG Mastery and the Lights & day shapes orals topic are free, with ongoing practice. A Study pass opens further subjects; it does not start a recurring charge.
