Highly recommended and agree to worth recommending!
I didn’t do a lot of research of other institutions programs. I was recommended this route per instructor, fellow pilots, as well as determing it’s what I was going to use from other students using other courses and having trouble passing FAA written.
I breezed through videos, took practice tests, and passed written on first try. This took two weeks from start to finish! Due to my personal success, I continue to recommend.

Awesome!!!
This is an incredible course. Filled to the brim with all the flying information that you need. A great resource to get yourself informed before and during flight training.
Desktop site is much better
This app is fine for what it is. I would say the best functionality of the app is allowing one to download the videos for offline use. Overall the desktop browser site is 99% of the time what I use just because the tools for studying tend to be much better. Also you can click to watch specific parts of a video pertaining to a question on the desktop site. The app is good but could use some work and I find myself gravitating to the desktop browser version even when on the iPad.

Flight review from Sporty’s
The information was well presented and informative. For pilots like myself who may have not flown in years, this course brings you up to speed with present day tools and techniques. The curriculum skillfully explains the various aspects of flying from regulations, airspace categories, weather, all the way to practical flying recommendations. I have my flight review scheduled in a few days and I feel much more confident after reviewing this course. Well done!

Sporty’s vs Kings ground schools
I am currently finishing up my private pilot certification and bought both Sporty’s and Kings ground schools. I will be continuing on with the goal of becoming an airline pilot. Of the two schools I personally believe Sporty’s is the superior choice. Sporty’s is more interactive, better teaches you how to use the information thought and how to fly, and gives better real world views of the information. Kings is more talking head based and feels more like a test prep course that gives the information needed to pass the FAA written exam. I think there are positives to both but if I were to do it over I would forgo Kings completely and only buy Sporty’s.

Best you can get
By far the best study app you can use. I studied with it for two months straight and was able to pass my private pilot written exam with a 90%. Practice questions are in a similar layout with some questions very similar to the exam. If you pass the practice exam on here with over an 80% you’re guaranteed to pass the exam. The studying resources the app off is second to none. I will have to say…I do wish the app video segment would go in order instead of jumping around, circling back around in later segments. Example weather will be discussed in multiple chapters making it hard to take notes, that’s the only shortfall. Overall, this WILL make you pass your exam if you’re consistently getting over 80%.

Not sure why all the good reviews
I bought the private pilot course based on all the good reviews. Although I enjoyed watching the videos (I watched all of them), they don’t even come
Close in preparing you for the test questions. I feel I am basically going through the questions and learning as I go. Which is difficult because there are not good explainations when you get them wrong. Just a general description and reference to a chapter in a book. Not a page number. So it makes cross referencing time consuming and difficult. There has to be a better course out there.

Amazing training! Do not buy from app store.
I bought this to supplement a cheaper PPL ground school that I went thru before I knew anything about aviation. I wish I would have started with Sporty’s. The training is so well done and easy to understand. However I would recommend going directly to their website to buy the courses instead of using the Apple in app purchase. I ran into an issue where progress would not sync to their server and ended up losing many hours of work because I didn’t have a sporty’s account logged in at the time of the in app purchase. It was frustrating and customer service had to help resolve. I don’t think it would have happened if I had just bought it directly from their web portal. They really need to fix their app to handle this situation its a big hole in the system and I’m sure I’m not the only one who fell in it.

Great Trainingq
After many years of not flying I decided to get back into training. This program has made it easy to understand the concepts of ground school. The ability to work on my Mac, Roku and even listed using carplay is great! Practice tests allow me to try out my knowledge before going for the real test. Any questions that I miss are presented in a study session to really help me understand what I need to work on.

Great preparation for exams and flying
The course balances conceptual learning with exam preparation extremely well. The videos are produced very professionally and the material is solid. I found the videos helped me with conceptual knowledge while the exam practice sections helped me for the often crazy FAA exams questions. The FAA exams contain many silly & irrelevant questions on redundant technology, but still need to be passed to get your license, so I appreciate the balanced approach this course took.
