Best App for Private Pilot Written

This app helped me ace my private pilot written. The price is a bit hefty considering the cheaper (and frankly almost as good) alternatives. But, it gets the job done well.

Some good some bad

There is some great information in this app. Reviewing and answering the questions has helped me tremendously. The bad part is that there are too many questions with wrong answers. Its caused me to do a lot of additional research to verify wrong answers. Then Id confirm it with my instructors. This REALLY needs to be cleaned up. Then Id give this app a much higher rating.

100% on the written

I self studied ground school. Reading the books alone would not have been enough. This app helped me get prepped for the specific types of questions. Went through this app the weekend prior reading and doing each question and aced the written. $10 well spent.

Great study material

I just finished my private pilots knowledge test (airplane) and passed (1st try) thanks to this app! The practice test are nearly identical to the real test. Well worth the money and better value than a book.

Great app

92% simply by using the app. Recommended to anyone

Works as advertised and I passed

Does exactly what its supposed to the practice tests generated were and invaluable part of my success. I was nervous about the actual FAA written but this app prepared me for it and I passed with no problems. I go to a flight university and have recommended it to several other friends who also passed.

Incomplete questions and answers.

Many questions and answers are missing parts, provably to make them shorter. Looks like this app focuses more on training you only to identify the right multiple choice answer of your test with little regards for you actual understanding of the subject, the question, or the answer.

Could be better

I bought this app because I need to cram for my upcoming test. It does an "alright" job but there are a number of things I would change. 1. put better reference information in the explanations. The explanation is short, so if I want to go look up the specifics, give me a page or section number. 2. allow me to resize the figures on my iPhone. I can look at the figures, but I cant zoom out so I can see all the information... very annoying. 3. if I get a question wrong, just show me the explanation and dont make me click to read it. I find myself clicking too many times to get anything done. I would wait to buy this until they update the app, there are other better ones out there.

Passed

This is a great app for the written all the questions come out of the app and helped pass my written with an 82 highly recommended!!

Love this

I scored 87% on my PPL exam using this App

Love it, except...

It cant seem to hold a practice session if I go to doing other stuff. If I get distracted and come back after having done other apps or after closing the phone it starts all over at the beginning.

reflects current test (headings 1* off on some,)

Good app, worth the $10. Got 93% on private RW. (Guessed on 4 questions I missed, but saw the same questions in the app, so had the opportunity!)

Has potential

Relatively easy to use. However the save functionality does not work. Several times I have been half way through a quiz and lost my work because of this. You can leave the app and return to the same spot, however you loose this if you go to a memory hungry app before you return. I would give an extra star for each of the following functions. Save functionality that works. Exporting results to pdf or other common format, and syncing across devices.
