I only took the test once so I have no benchmark for comparison, but I think my perfect 36 is proof enough. ### 5/5 — Absolutely Brilliant *2021-03-25, version 2.9.1* I will be honest and say that I’ve only used this for about two days, but I absolutely love it. There are so many features that you wouldn’t even think about, being able to flag problems, video walk-throughs etc. and they have it all! I think this being a free app you should absolutely download it, nothing to lose, everything to gain. ### 5/5 — The best app!! *2020-12-02, version 2.9.1* I love this app.it was exactly what I was looking for. ### 5/5 — Literally the best *2020-11-18, version 2.9.1* Thank you, you guys have the most help I’ve ever had like seriously answered so many questions I’ve had thank you so much you guys put me up one more step in preparation for college 😭 ### 5/5 — Learned so much *2020-10-04, version 2.9.1* Love u guys so much( no homo) you guys help so much with the content thanks!!! ### 5/5 — Great App *2020-10-02, version 2.9.1* Good and clear explanations highly recommended!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2020-07-27, version 2.9.1* This is one of the best ACT study resources ever. They have flash cards, videos over any topic you can think of, practice questions and study tips. And it’s all free!! It’s not as boring as reading a book and even the Act Scholar thing with John Baylor doesn’t prepare you as well as this! I am going to ace the next ACT with this resource! Thank you Magoosh :) ### 5/5 — This app is Awesome!!! *2020-05-26, version 2.9.1* I am not writing this because the app told me to. I am writing this because of how legit this app is. It is totally free, no strings attached. I paid 40 bucks for a crappy prep guide by the act, which was not even Close to the instructions I got with this app. If you are studying for this test get this app!!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome app, free and helpful *2020-05-19, version 2.9.1* I love the videos in this app! They are well explained and very helpful especially I needed help for math! ### 5/5 — PERFECT *2020-04-28, version 2.9.1* I’m taking my ACT in a month. I can’t tell you how amazing this app is! It includes every single topic in each subject and the videos are explanatory and simple! ### 5/5 — RECOMMEND *2020-03-10, version 2.9.1* this app helped me so much for my ACT ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Retired baddie. Sucks now. *2026-01-24, version 6.2.2* Everything used to be free but now they want you to go “pro” for some extra videos and features. Ridiculous. It used to be one of those apps i really loved because it was a free option that’s genuinely helpful. We cant have anything good anymore ### 1/5 — All they want is a subscription *2021-03-25, version 2.9.1* They want you to pay $100-$300 for a premium account online. The lessons are not worth that amount by any means. ### 1/5 — Mobile issues *2020-11-27, version 2.9.1* This app is amazing, except for the fact that it is Entirely useless on mobile. You literally cannot swipe down with it, and you cannot read any of the paragraphs ### 1/5 — Not helpful for coming back to school. *2020-06-01, version 2.9.1* This app is not good if you stop college for awhile. This will NOT give you a refresher or reviews. ### 1/5 — Not happy *2018-06-29, version 2.8.2* Is not what I expected ### 2/5 — Can't exit out of video *2022-10-07, version 2.9.1* The app is great overall there are just a few bugs like when I try watching a video and it gets done I can’t exit out of it and I have to swipe out of the app in order to resume my study and in lose my place at time if I don’t remember where I left off ### 2/5 — 2 stars *2021-08-30, version 2.9.1* I would love to recommend this app for others, however, it seems that I am unable to access any articles, as a white screen simply shows. While the videos work, they were suddenly cut off and I was unable to learn anything fully. 2/5. ### 3/5 — Meh *2020-01-15, version 2.9.1* Has frustrating glitches for me, I would use it all time if fixed ### 4/5 — Please make the playback speed feature work!! *2024-06-20, version 6.1.3* I’ve only been using this app for a day and i find the videos really helpful but the playback speed feature does not currently work ### 4/5 — Great Resource *2020-02-05, version 2.9.1* Though there are a lot of great resources on this app, I wish there was an option for daily ACT practice where it randomly chooses one question each day for you to answer. I also wish this was linked to college board. However, overall really good results. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very Similar *2026-03-21, version 6.2.2* it’s a very similar to the ACT so i like it a lot ### 5/5 — Amazing for studying *2025-09-16, version 6.2.2* Absolutely great ACT study app I would say the best one! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-09-05, version 6.2.2* Free and easy ### 5/5 — Enhanced ACT Practice? *2025-08-25, version 6.2.2* This app is amazing! I love everything about it- it never seems to have any glitches, the questions are great, the explanations are great (the quick video explanations have been so helpful), and just the overall format is so easy to navigate. However, with the coming of the new Enhanced ACT, I wish the app was updated to give practice tests that follow the new version’s number of questions and time limit. Overall, though, thanks for everything! Totally recommend! ### 5/5 — Free and you get explanations *2024-12-09, version 6.1.3* You get timed and you when you get the answer right or wrong you get a paragraph long explanation. ### 5/5 — Love this *2024-07-16, version 6.1.3* I’m only 16 and this is really helping me to prepare for the really ACT that I have to take on the spring of this upcoming school year. I really like how when you get a question wrong, it tells you why instead of just telling you that you got it wrong. I also like the videos they help me a lot to understand how I can do better on the tests and also they help me to understand just the regular material for the basic knowledge. I really récolent this app for anybody who is looking for a study tool to help with their ACT score. ### 5/5 — Literally the best *2023-04-10, version 2.9.1* This app has 30+ hours of video lessons to watch over 700 practice questions all with video and written explanations I cant even begin to explain how much this app helped me ### 5/5 — Saved me! *2022-10-04, version 2.9.1* I’ve only had this app for an out and I think it’s might just save me from failing the act again. It has everything you need!!! Question difficulty, explanations, math, English, reading and science!!! Everything. It’s perfect!! ### 5/5 — Cannot recommend enough! *2022-06-28, version 2.9.1* I mostly used the math prep questions and I love that they both time you and give you an explanation of the question often with multiple ways to solve it. They also show you how you rank among the average time with how long you take to answer which is really useful since the ACT math test is half time management. I hadn’t taken the ACT ever before and it had been over seven years since I last took a math class so this app really helped me un-rust my skills. I ended up with a 28 math score and a 31 overall on my first time taking the ACT. This app is a great strategy for both first time test takers and those trying to improve their scores! ### 5/5 — I’d give it 6 stars if possible *2021-07-27, version 2.9.1* I went from a 23 to a 34 in English, so I can’t recommend this enough. Everything is very well made and easy to use, as well as being quite informative. 10/10 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
