The best option
I’ve done kings online video training and the Sporty’s. Sporty’s videos and training and materials are by far the best and easiest to pay attention to, learn from and study for the exams and real life situations.
Optimal source for pilot knowledge
Provides a great source of a user friendly way to learn at your pace. Very thorough and easy to navigate back for study refreshing. I work full time and am able to start and stop study sessions throughout the day. Thanks Sporty’s
IOS app lags web version :(
Does exactly what you expect it to do and does it well. My only gripe is that updates to the IOS app test questions appear to fall behind updates to the web version test questions, at least for the remote pilot test training.
I’ve emailed to let them know about not having any Category questions but have received no response and no updates to the iOS app.
More consistent and timely updates would make this a 5 star app easily.

Outstanding Quality.
The interface is very intuitive and easy to use, the post video quizzes and key points are helpful for remembering important and testable questions. The study tools are diverse so I was able to find the perfect method of studying.
Great courses, always current and updated regularly.
This courses are great, visually impressive, very dynamic and always up to date, providing all the information you need to stay current and ace your exams.
Almost perfect
Great app, however there are two things that are not working:
1. It doesn’t track the watched videos like the webpage
2. Some videos after being downloaded and click play they play another video, happened with “Get Started Learning To Fly”, “How do you Learn to Fly?” Every time I click it played the first video “Why learn to Fly?” Even after removing the download, restarting the app and trying again.
A recommendation, would be nice to be able to Airplay directly without having to download a third party app, which doesn’t work with pausing and volume controls.

The App Interferes with Laptop Login
Since I open the course in my app, I can no longer launch the course on my laptop. I am trying to do some studying tonight with my laptop, but it keeps spinning for 2 hour now and still not able to access any content. It stuck at the launching page. This is very frustrating now that I close my app, restart my laptop, reboot my internet and yet still not able to access the content on my laptop.

App sync issues
The course itself is great, however there is a bit of a headache in keeping the course progress in sync. I use it on my iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV, and am logged into my sports account on all three. The progress sync between the iPad and iPhone is quick and great, but that progress doesn’t sync with the Apple TV or vice versa. It’s creates quite a bit of a headache.

Instrument course
Absolutely amazing. I recommend everything Sportys. I paid for the instrument course 4 years ago when it was still on its own platform. I did the entire corse along with reading all the material the FAA has online an passed the written with flying colors. But due to certain circumstances I didn’t finish my rating. Now that’s it’s time to get it done unfortunately I have to retake the exam again so I contacted Sportys because the videos where no longer functioning in the old app. The guy that helped me gave me access to the new platform with proof of purchase and to top it all off they sent me a second endorsement to take the exam this second time no extra charge! Five stars all the way!

It would be great if I could tell how I’m doing
I like sportys. With their program I got a perfect score on my Private pilot test. But I was mostly using the desktop site. I would’ve used the mobile app but you can’t see your stats on testing and categories like you can on the desktop website. It only shows how you performed in each category on that specific practice session. This makes it really hard to see what areas you’re improving in and which ones you aren’t. Also it doesn’t seem to accurately sync with what you’ve done on the desktop site.
