### 2/5 — 갑자기 결제?

*2023-07-15*

신용카드 정보 넣으라고 나오더니 그냥 결제가 되어 버렸어요. 환불해주세요. 왜 아무 설명도 없이 그냥 결제가 된건가요

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2020-10-14*

Absolutely inadequate quality, soundtracks especially. It’s impossible to imply emotional components of the conversations during the listening test because the conversations are recorded with the robo-voice. 

The app’s English itself is grammatically incorrect. Very often the app uses even broken English which makes no sense. 

There is no scoring system. By the end of the test they will show you just the correct answers without your score, you will have to calculate it on your own.

Don’t bother.

### 1/5 — Unable to load tip data

*2019-01-03*

Tip data is shown to be loading and never shows any tips...

### 3/5 — Somehow disappointed. Could be way better

*2018-09-27*

I was hoping to find more exercises and not just general information. Also in my opinion there are a lot of grammar and punctuation errors.

### 2/5 — 김영식님

*2017-06-16*

### 1/5 — Not Worth your money

*2026-08-05*

I should have read the reviews. The subscription is definitely not worth it. Not enough practice examples. It gives just general tips that can be found online.

### 1/5 — Got Subscription but still not working

*2026-05-13*

I already bought paid subscription, however still not able to practice. Every time try to practice asking me to buy subscription. This is scam or genuine not sure?

### 1/5 — Messy listening

*2024-11-01*

The listening is just a copy paste from the book and the audio is awful. The format is inconvenient to use as you just have to check the answers like in a book. If you really want to get prepared for the test this app ain’t helpful at all.

**Developer response:** Hi Julia Brams, thank you for the candid feedback. We've significantly updated the listening module and added scoring since your review — we'd love a second chance if you reinstall. Please email kimloydmail@gmail.com if anything still falls short.

### 1/5 — too many personal details request

*2024-10-15*

i dont understand why do you need so many details personal details just to open the app

**Developer response:** Hi Cndkdod, thanks for flagging this. We've reduced onboarding friction and no longer ask for unnecessary details. Please give the latest version a try — feedback to kimloydmail@gmail.com is always welcome.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-02-25*

Useless

### 1/5 — This app is trash

*2021-12-20*

All those 5 star reviews are obviously fake. It’s clear the creator doesn’t know English very well. English is my first language and the hardest part of this test was trying to figure out the language. There are no scores for exams. At the end of one, it will give you an answer sheet, but with no way to compare it with your answers, so be sure to memorize the letter of every multiple choice answer you chose. Absolute garbage. Don’t waste your time.

### 3/5 — Suggestion for better experience

*2024-01-09*

Thank you for the great job of putting together a real time examination questions in an examination situation, it is quite helpful. However, the way the answers are set out could be improved on by stating the alphabets that represents each answer. Rather than just writing out the answer, I think the alphabet a, b, c or d where under the answer falls should also be quoted in the answer section, this will help us easily identify the answer to the question as against the option we chose during the test.

Thank you.
