### 5/5 — Exceptional study Tool

*2025-09-22, version 1.3*

I have used others and this is my preferred and also my go to. Good luck to all fellow ham operators de K2TJP

### 1/5 — Print is tiny

*2025-09-09, version 1.3*

All good

### 5/5 — Ham Radio Extra Exam

*2024-04-30, version 1.2.2*

Excellent quick study program that through repeated studies will provide you with a better chance of success with the Extra exam questions

### 3/5 — NEEDS UPDATES

*2024-03-28, version 1.2.2*

this is an amazing app to use and learn, however Amature Extra exam pool is not updated to the new question pool.

### 5/5 — Ham Radio Extra Exam

*2024-02-24*

Excellent quick study program that through repeated studies will provide you with a better chance of success with the Extra exam questions

### 4/5 — Terrific, but very small text

*2023-03-08, version 1.2.1*

I wish the text was larger.  I used this app to pass my Tech Exam with a 100% score.  Now studying for the General, but having a tough time with the very small text on iphone 14.  Otherwise, highly recommended and well worth the few $ for the app.

### 4/5 — Out of date? Still good.

*2022-12-09, version 1.1*

This has been my preferred app to study from and I’m feeling good about it. However, two things: I agree with another review saying there’s no photo schematic with the question. The magnifying glass is there in study mode but not in test mode. Luckily I have a book nearby with them in it. 
Second, I’ve taken practice tests on other apps and websites and have noticed different questions (T4A09 is the first one that made me realize this). I’m not sure if that means this is the old pool of questions or those are, especially since most of them go to 2022. But it’s still been a great app to study from.

### 3/5 — It’s ok but for 5.99 I expected better

*2022-08-17, version 1.1*

My only complaint so far is that it doesn’t show the diagrams when asking a question about a circuit.  It just asks the question with no way to see what the components are.

### 5/5 — The best on the market

*2022-03-28, version 1.1*

NoBS app. Easy buy, easy go.

### 5/5 — HAM Exam

*2022-03-21, version 1.1*

Excellent App. Very helpful in preparation for the test.
