Great format, horrible info
The actual app and design is great, but the questions are so poorly worded and confusing that it’s not worth the money to use. It also consistently disconnects and has to reconnect to a server. Most of the questions aren’t worded properly and have multiple correct answers so you have to guess which is right. Has very little to do with actual test questions.

Still got charged after I cancel.
I downloaded the app about a week ago signed up for the free trial which is a week used the app for two days, then I cancel the trial and delete the app cause I don’t need it and I still got charged $24.99 three days after I cancel. I need to get that refunded. Keep writing them emails and all I get is an automatic response about how to cancel the subscription.
★★★★ Victor1124 12/24/2024 v2.6.2
Ehhh
I used this app to cross reference with a couple other ones I used when studying for combination vehicles and air brake endorsement. The other ones I use are CDL prep and CDL Genie and those ones were word for word on the actual dmv written exam for the general knowledge portion. (Im taking air brake and combo this week so I’m brushing up) I did the free trial for this one and did two air brake tests and it’s garbage. Asks the same questions over and over again, theyre worded poorly and you’d be better off using literally anything else 😂

Idioma
Decidí descarga esta aplicación porque en el Apple Store indicaba que era en español y en inglés y al descargarla todas las preguntas son en inglés, no tiene nada en español.

Do not get this app to study
I used this app to study and after about 4 days of studying I was passing with flying colors thinking I was more then ready to go take the real thing. I did and failed by 17 questions. The questions on this app are no where near the questions you will see on the real test. I highly would recommend CDL prep app with the blue steering wheel and dmv genie. The best thing about these apps is the questions are the actual questions you will be seeing on the test and the best part is they are free to use this app makes you pay a subscription fee of 25$ it’s not worth it at all i promise you.

Repeating questions in the same test. As if the app is developed by AI. Doesnt worth spend money Even your time is nothing but wasting

Tanker endorsement
Going for tanker endorsement. Took 3 tests on the app. The tests would repeat the same question 3-4x . Which I understand is good for repetitions, if I had got the question wrong but I had the correct answer. They ask general cdl knowledge questions. I would not recommend. Would be nice if for the price they did some research into what questions are actually being asked on the test based on which state you’re taking the test. Why ask for my information, such as the state I’m taking the test if you’re not going to provide state specific questions ?
★★★★ nothing free here 10/20/2023 v2.5.6
This is a ruthless company big scam
Stay away no way to cancel
No one to talk to
No wZy to communicate with this company
Scam scam scam scam scam no free seven days you can't end the service in that amount of time it ever through there app you need to close it in the apple app but then you loose the seven day trail and you get billed $24.99 and there no one to talk to or communicate with to stop the process
Nice scam

Subscription?
How do I cancel the subscription? And how do I get my money back
★★★★ Fuzkzmd 8/24/2023 v2.5.6
Not worth the money
This app claims to have a huge bank of questions but recycles the same set over and over again. On some tests it will repeat multiple questions 3-4x each comprising the test of half repeated questions. On the tanker section there is a gem of a question that is as following “A tanker without baffles____” a. Has baffles b. Does not have baffles c. Has compartments d. None of the above. Well the correct answer is apparently a. So the correct statement is “A tanker without baffles has baffles” don’t waste your money and don’t forget to cancel before the trial ends.
★★★★ Gray Thom 8/19/2023 v2.5.6
Scam
For CDL exam the information is not up to date. They also will not contact you back for refunds or anything. Would not recommend!

DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY
when fact checking the correct answer to the questions asked on these tests they do not align anywhere close the the actual CDL test it self or even come close
★★★★ Mario8511able 7/29/2023 v2.5.6
Wasted my money
Totally disappointed. I studied several hours the general knowledge test, about 1000 questions, plus the flash cards, yesterday I failed the test for the 2nd time. Only about 15 questions were helpful. The other 35 I was on my own. I need my money back. Plus, there are like 4 questions with gramatical errors, and 1 question that is incorrect.

WOW
This is a BERY attractive and promising app, BUT for someone needing the testing assistance and education not having the immediate financial ability it is deceptive…would love to study and get the assistance, however this is only a dream.

You ask on the side of the road. Then in the answer you say on the road. There are others just like this one . Several in all.

State of Florida
98% passing rate is what got me!! Can literally answer every test on this app and get 100% correct answers. Have taken the exam two times already and both times have failed.Literally felt like I was taking a test I never even studied for. Try to contact someone on their app and you can’t even speak with somebody. Don’t waste your money. Go to your state DMV website and study with whatever manual they give you.

My app isn’t working and I have a subscription
It was working and then all of a sudden the app has been down for three days now. I thought it was me because I needed to pay for it but no it’s not working. Not sure what to do. I went with this app because it has great reviews but I’m paying for an app I can’t use and I have no one I can let them know. May the app owner or whoever manages the app should check more often on there intellectual property. 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

Incorrect info
One of the questions was incorrect. The question was: what psi does the low pressure indicator turn on and the answer said above 60 psi when it’s suppose to be below 60 psi. I been using this app and now I have to restart my study with something more accurate. I’m get disappointed because I been paying a monthly subscription I would expect the answers to be correct.

Kind of helpful but not really
It repeated the same question 15 out of the 30 questions on the practice test… half of the questions in the practice test were the same one. It’s hard to test my knowledge on the full scope if I don’t get to see most the questions..
★★★★★ Dana0572 8/16/2023 v2.5.6
This is a joke
Good thing this is a free trial, while doing practice tests you’ll get the same questions 3-4 times in the test that’s not helpful when you see the same questions repeatedly in multiple tests!!
