### 4/5 — Good Product, Odd App

*2026-07-24, version 2.68.16*

The service itself is great, but the app has some quirks I don’t care for that made me drop a star. My biggest gripe is I can’t highlight and look up words in the questions or explanations. Additionally, I can’t copy some of the more complex rules and explanations to have them dumbed down for me elsewhere. It times out a little too fast, though I’m not sure if the developer or Apple is to blame for that. Finally, the app could stand to be just a little bit cuter; the UI is a little archaic and unattractive.

Other than that, it’s a great, stable app!

### 4/5 — Good for on the go

*2026-07-14, version 2.68.16*

I need quick highlight a here selecting text gets you to highlight. I also need easier reading on the eyes so it would be great to be able to turn on a dark mode setting like the Barbri questions.

### 3/5 — Malfunctions

*2026-06-07, version 2.68.16*

Can’t select only one topic for questions. And if you select settings in a certain order your preferences don’t register. Please fix this.

### 3/5 — When it works

*2026-05-29, version 2.68.16*

Decent app when it works. Right now it loads correctly, I select the MCQ subjects I’d like to take, go past the instruction page, and I’m met with a blank screen. I’ve updated to 26.5, restarted multiple times, nada.

### 5/5 — Great program

*2026-05-21, version 2.68.16*

### 5/5 — Best Bar Prep on the Go

*2025-12-11, version 2.68.15*

Really great bar prep on the go. The extended explanations are amazing as they explain the black letter law then funnel down to the specific rule statements and apply it the to facts. Much better than Barbri explanations if you’re also using that. Highly recommending using Adaptibar to supplement your studying in general, and the app has a great user interface for on the go!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bad, outdated software

*2026-07-12, version 2.68.16*

This app feels like it was made circa 2005. If you close a video, it doesn’t pickup where you left off. If you are on the video selection, no showing of progress or which have been reviewed. The iphone version doesn’t have 1.25 speed but the online version does. 

Technically this is an app. It offers no functionality above the website, actually much less.

### 1/5 — Can’t choose sub topics anymore

*2026-05-07, version 2.68.16*

New update messed up the ability to choose specific topics for a practice exam and can’t generate past questions.

### 1/5 — I cannot login

*2025-08-13, version 2.68.14*

I cannot login to the app… Please fix

### 1/5 — Login Issues

*2025-06-29, version 2.68.13*

Similar to other reviewers, I can’t log into this app with my normal adaptibar credentials

### 1/5 — Won’t grant me access

*2025-06-25, version 2.68.13*

When I try to log in it says the credentials are wrong, but i can login using the same credentials on the website

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-05-20, version 2.68.13*

I subscribed to Critical Pass through my Barbri subscription to get access to flash cards. However, the app provides zero access to flashcards, which is the single most useful tool it could be used for.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-02-02, version 2.68.12*

Gave me real test questions when I specifically checked box not to, and some glitch gives me only tort questions when I want all subjects. Does not update real-time data.

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2025-01-28, version 2.68.12*

Contacted support, no response. Can only use web login, glad I’m paying for this.

### 1/5 — Don’t mention that your content purchases are rentals

*2024-08-01, version 2.68.12*

Rent not own

### 2/5 — Bad customer service

*2024-12-26, version 2.68.12*

The MBE program has been easy to use on desktop and app. The MEE program isn’t designed for the CA Bar. I brought both and requested a refund for the MEE portion, I’ve been waiting for about 3 weeks for a refund. I called today and Cassie stated the AR department will take a look at it and get is refunded as quickly as possible, but due to it being the end of the month they other priorities to handle.
