★★★★ Lia 5/2/2026 v4.5.63
won't let me cancel subscription
★★★★ Some One 4/30/2026 v4.5.63

★★★★ tina robison 4/24/2026 v4.5.62
the app itself is fine however I am still being charged $7.99 a week and I've already canceled it through Google Play and I can't cancel it again because it's already canceled I've paid $7.99 twice after I've canceled. I don't know how to cancel it without having to just get a whole new debit card.
★★★★ RoseCurry AndDeRozan 4/20/2026 v4.5.63
I signed up for a free trial that was supposed to last 3 days and they charged me a week's amount. they say there is a no refund policy but I will be calling tomorrow to complain.
★★★★ baby squeak 4/18/2026 v4.5.57
why is it money for all questions they gave us like 4 or 5 for free. Do not download
★★★★ Cat 4/14/2026 v4.5.62
locked behind a subscription. most people trying to learn how to drive are presumably teenagers with no job, so why is there a paywall for people that dont got no money??
★★★★ Rollie Heschong 4/14/2026 v4.5.62
I wanted to practice for fun and then I get hit with a paywall.
★★★★ Brittany Keaton 4/13/2026
dumbest app ever.
★★★★ William Boals (imp) 4/10/2026 v4.5.54
It's forcing a subscription down my throat from the start and I can't do anything if I don't have a subscription. don't recommend for teens or people who can't afford a subscription. I'm going to find a different way to study.
★★★★ paula 4/8/2026
the app would be great if I wasn't forced to get the subscription
★★★★ Ar No 4/7/2026 v4.5.61
completely useless unless you pay ( a lot)
★★★★ Debbie Westfall 4/3/2026 v4.5.60
everything is locked until you get/renew the free trial.
★★★★ Child 4/2/2026 v4.5.60
This app seemed very helpful. I understood alot from just the first 7 minute lesson, but when I went on to take the in-app test for that lesson it only let me answer 4 questions before asking me to pay for premium. This is absolutely ridiculous, as a game developer myself, I know that ads can make you just as much money that you need with a successful app like this. The developers could have definitely just put ads in this app but make users pay to remove ads and maybe access to special lessons.
★★★★ Daleyshka Reyes 3/29/2026 v4.5.59
Why do we gotta pay to study driving? No wonder why there's crackhead drivers.
★★★★ Grymm Bone 3/26/2026
it doesn't even give you a chance to learn without trying to force you to pay for the app
★★★★ Vinnie Cardin 3/21/2026 v4.5.58
you have to pay for the first lesson
★★★★ Trudy Heinz 3/20/2026
I am trying to learn the laws and how to drive a motorcycle but it keeps trying to make me pay to learn
★★★★ Bella 3/20/2026 v4.5.58
very irritating.. the learning part is okay, but everytime I try taking the first test (Intersections) it stops me in the middle to urge me to buy a "membership", and there's no deny button, so I'm stuck there. when I exit and rejoin to take the test it does the same thing!! I can't do the free trial, I don't want to do it! No matter what I do, it won't go away. I can't continue the lesson even because of it..
★★★★ Hailey Aragon 3/19/2026
I downloaded the app so I could start learning to drive, I sat with the app open actively pressing the screen now and then and it didn't load open, all I had was the logo and a blank screen, I waited for probably ten minutes and nothing, I don't recommend this app.
★★★★ LE Martin 3/17/2026 v4.5.57
You cant go past a few questions without signing up for for $6 a week. Just not worth it
★★★★ LunaPlaysGames 3/17/2026
I was excited to study until I got hit with a paywall five questions in. I'll just stick to the actual free online DMV practice test. Waste of time
★★★★ Z Ball 3/14/2026 v4.5.57
wouldn't let me use with out buying the subscription
★★★★ Juan 3/12/2026
The app having a subscription was enough to not bother using.
★★★★ Kim schierholz 3/12/2026 v4.5.57
cost too much
★★★★ Kennedy Sondel 3/10/2026 v4.5.57
wouldn't let me got past the first lesson unless I did a subscription,don't recommend
★★★★ Salty Dino Nuggy 3/6/2026 v4.5.57
it won't let me do more than 4 questions without paying. I'm not paying for this
★★★★ nikita 2/27/2026 v4.5.57
why the hell do I have to pay for this? at this point just go to Google and search some free ones
★★★★ Grace Malone 2/26/2026 v4.5.57
halfway through a lesson an ad will pop up forcing you to buy the premium. meaning you can't finish the first test without paying
★★★★★ Eric Nelson 5/7/2026 v4.5.64
not truly free, app is free to install. but not free to use
★★★★★ Anjelique Belcher 4/14/2026
couldn't do anything
★★★★★ Leah Ament 4/14/2026 v4.5.62
you have to pay for it after like 3 questions but otherwise good
★★★★★ Journey Bell 4/10/2026
it's a good learning app for your furniture on the road and when you make a mistake it tells you what you should do instead of that but something I don't like about it I was trying to answer all the questions when I click next question every time I click the next question a pop-up kept popping up asking me to do their weekly payment subscription and all that are available just take me back to the past question.Also it keeps asking me to pay for it and I can't get past the screen
★★★★★ _Anime_simp_ 3/29/2026 v4.5.59
It was alright but I couldn't even finish a test without being bombarded by the free trial and I can't even finish it because apparently I have to have a free trial but I don't want that.
★★★★★ Ash Wood 3/29/2026
on lesson 4 of road rules l the video doesn't work.
★★★★★ dead panda 3/16/2026
it's helpful but it forces you to try and pay, I get it but honestly I'll just take the free option and just read the book and take quizzes online that are also (FREE)
★★★★★ Landon Brown 3/11/2026 v4.5.57
cost money
★★★★★ Nolan Fodor 2/26/2026
I like the app, it's a good study tool. But even since I canceled my subscription months ago, it keeps trying to charge my card 2-3 time a day for $6.
