Also minor issues with clicking into a simulation box and then having to click again to type. ### 3/5 — Videos glitch *2026-02-03, version 26.1.0* Every time I try to watch more than one video in the app, the second video freezes. I have to close the app and restart it for each new video, which is far from ideal. That happens whether or not the auto-play feature is on. ### 4/5 — Can’t use flash cards in landscape mode; Clicking next question button closes app *2026-01-11, version 25.12.0* I am blocked from using flash cards in landscape mode : “please rotate your screen for a better experience”. But the experience is much worse… I use a trackpad on my iPad and pressing next question often closes the app because it is too low on the screen. ### 3/5 — Great material, terrible app. *2025-12-01, version 25.9.3* Excellent course material, but the mobile app is terrible! Video playback issues and crashes, plus work done on mobile app doesn’t show as completed online. Irritating! ### 3/5 — Not all tools available *2025-08-11, version 25.4.1* Not all tools available on the iPad app I bought the iPad only for studying ### 4/5 — Overall great with some video issues *2025-07-29, version 25.4.1* This is a very good app with lots of amazing content. It is very user friendly and easy to navigate. The one issue I have is that sometimes when watching videos they don’t register as watched, or the next one will start to play, but the video isn’t showing and only the audio plays. ### 4/5 — Very helpful *2025-07-01, version 25.4.1* The lectures and modules are great and tech support was very helpful when I had issues. My only complaint is you cannot download videos or audio and then play them later without internet/WiFi. ### 2/5 — Not good *2025-06-27* I use the app to watch lectures but it is the worst streaming system I have ever dealt with. I have to do several random things to get the option for full screen to show up, that I had to figure out through trial and error. The videos also bug out half the time when auto starting and I am stuck with a black screen while the audio plays on. This can be fixed by minimizing but then I have to jump through all the hoops for full screen again. It is a much better experience watching videos on the web through my computer. **Developer response:** Hi, we're sorry to hear you're having issues with the app. Can you please let us know more about your issue by calling our customer service center at 1-800-868-3900? Thank you in advance! ### 3/5 — Can’t get reset to sync *2025-06-21, version 25.4.1* In the title, reset my REG process since I didn’t pass, and online login reset but my apps on my iPad and my iPhone will not sync to the website progress. Please help! This app has been great other than that ### 4/5 — Please add newt to iPad version *2025-06-17, version 25.4.1* Please fix the iPAD spreadsheet bugs that causes cells to highlight and please add Newt in the app ### 4/5 — good but bugs *2025-03-25, version 25.2.5* for some reason the app bugs out and zooms in randomly and isn’t usable. But other than that it’s divine! ### 2/5 — Won’t work *2025-01-05, version 24.12.1* App keeps crashing before it can fully open. It looks like it’s about to open, screen flashes white, then nothing happens. Used to be a solid app but now I can’t even use it and I need to study occasionally on my phone. ### 1/5 — App shuts down *2025-01-02, version 24.12.0* Any time I try to open the app, it shuts down. Worst app EVER!!!!! ### 2/5 — Can’t download videos *2024-12-17, version 24.11.0* For such an expensive business, they don’t even allow you to watch videos offline. Such a basic feature is gone in year 2024… why can’t we spend the time on an airplane studying the material offline… ### 1/5 — Materials are no longer downloadable *2024-12-09, version 24.11.0* App used to allow you to download materials to access offline but now that ability has gone away. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App is blank *2026-05-28, version 26.5.0* I am just getting a white screen… app is useless and needs to be fixed. ### 1/5 — App is blank *2026-05-17, version 26.5.0* It use to work on my iPad but since the update when I open the app it’s a blank white screen and nothing happens, completely unusable. ### 1/5 — Literally Unusable *2026-04-24, version 26.4.0* Just a white screen ### 1/5 — App is blank *2026-03-06, version 26.3.0* App used to work but now when I open it, it’s just a blank white screen. Says my software is still compatible as well. Ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Not good anymore *2025-12-18, version 25.12.0* Becker used to be the best. Not that Olinto left the program, it changes. A lot of material is missing topics are not covered as they should. I had two sims that were not covered by the Becker material at all. I want to get the refund as promised, but nothing yet. I want to switch to UWorld. ### 1/5 — Difficult to Access Materials *2025-09-15, version 25.9.0* Becker does not allow you to access lectures offline. So if you are traveling forget about studying. For spending $3k they shouldn't make it impossible to access what you paid for. ### 1/5 — video cannot access offline *2025-07-04, version 25.4.1* I cannot believe this function for video is cancelled. Ridiculous! So inconvenient. Limit all offline in app, that is also inconvenient but I can understand because Becker want to make sure materials will not be free for people who do not buy. But video cannot be downloaded, terrible! ### 1/5 — Bugs and crashes *2025-06-21, version 25.4.1* I try to use the app for studying during my commute, but lectures refuse to play most of the time, pausing restarts the video, and TB’s are not included. For the most popular cpa review, I expect better. ### 1/5 — E-text doesn’t auto fit to screen *2025-03-21, version 25.2.5* I prefer reading big textbooks in bite-sized pieces. However, this app doesn’t let users make the font bigger and have the text auto fit the screen’s size. If users like me need bigger font, we have to zoom in and scroll from left to right to read a full sentence which is extremely annoying to do. I want font I can read and to only have to scroll up and down on it on various screens sizes (laptop, iPad, mobile). This will make learning way easier and more accessible to me and users like me. Please fix! Thank you! ### 1/5 — Can not access offline *2025-01-10, version 24.12.2* No longer can download lectures or do MCQs offline when there is no WiFi and traveling. Very inconvenient. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great but *2026-06-22, version 26.6.0* When watching videos on my phone and the auto play is on. It won’t let me full screen. Like the option doesn’t exist anymore. But the window pop out does? So I have to make it a small screen then I have to close it for it to show up. It would be great if auto play didn’t get rid of my full screen option ### 5/5 — Studying on the go *2025-05-19, version 25.4.1* Great for practice tests, especially when there is no access to wifi. Easy user functionality ### 5/5 — Look No Further *2025-02-17, version 24.12.2* I have been struggling to understand how all of the financial statements tie together, how debits and credits increase and decrease, and which sides to increase and decrease. I was having such a difficult time but when I started using Becker CPA exam review, it was like my mind was finally starting to grasp what everything means and it is self-paced and very informative. There are videos for questions that you get wrong or get right for further explanation. I am beyond impressed thank you guys you are awesome!!!! ### 5/5 — Incredibly Helpful *2025-02-15, version 24.12.2* If you are studying for the CPA exam, I highly recommend Becker. They have the information you need to pass. It is extremely well organized, and taught by professional presenters. I considered looking up the list of tested subjects and finding the answers myself, but Becker has already streamlined the learning process. Why wouldn’t I just trust the decades of experience of highly educated people who dedicate their careers to helping me pass the CPA exam? I am glad I choose Becker. ### 5/5 — Looking for a review Course? Choose Becker *2025-02-06, version 24.12.2* Becker the best review course ever. I highly recommend ### 5/5 — Wow! *2023-12-01, version 23.11.1* THE BEST APP! Super useful for studying on the go or for the late night crunches. Super grateful! ### 5/5 — Good *2023-10-13, version 23.10.3* This new version keeps pushing “a new content version is available” and asks you to update. Then download all content. This repeats every time you open the app. Update: they fixed the above issue. All good for now ### 5/5 — One small critique *2023-06-09, version 23.6.2* The videos should be made playable if you close/shutoff your screen, so you can listen to lectures without leaving the screen on. ### 5/5 — Best Review Course *2023-06-05, version 23.4.4* Becker review is very interactive, clarify concepts and understandability. I am very impressed. I am confident that I am going to pass the exam in 1st attempt. Manoj ### 5/5 — Great app but with a flaw *2023-01-31, version 22.11.6* This app is great, however, I can’t watch the skillbuilder videos from the simulations without the video to start crashing. Watching a 15 min clip would take an hour just from restarting and seeking. This only happens on my iPad. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
