I also see that supposedly it has been fixed months ago. But I just downloaded this app the other day. Ads are horrible on here. You can’t click on an answer or next question without opening up ads. Please tell me it’s really fixed. ### 2/5 — 2 stars *2026-04-29, version 2.3* I was using to practice for my dmv test cause or it’s 1 for 1 questions but it’s literally unusable cause of the amount of ads it throws at you that you can’t get off screen ### 2/5 — Great App, Terrible Ads *2026-04-25, version 2.3* The app is great but whatever it takes a with the ads makes it almost impossible to use. It works for a couple questions but then the ads take over the screen and you can’t do anything, just sit and wait. If it was a paid app with no ads I would defiantly pay for it, but as it sits now it’s not usable. ### 2/5 — Ads *2026-04-16, version 2.3* Great app for quizzing yourself for CPL or CDL training. Absolutely horrendous ad placements. It is ridiculous. How the ads will take up half the screen there during a test genuinely you should feel ashamed of yourself for setting it up like that. Makes the app unusable at times. ### 3/5 — BUG *2026-03-26, version 2.3* The app is great but now is damaged because it has a virus ### 3/5 — Ad problem *2026-03-16, version 2.3* The tests are good but you need to lose the LLbean ad. Unlike the ads it covers the screen making it impossible to answer. There is no way to go back or anything so progress is lost. ### 3/5 — Can’t Study, Ad Pop Ups *2026-03-13, version 2.3* The only problem is the ads, PLEASE remove the ads. The ads take up the entire screen. ### 2/5 — Accurate questions, BUT the ads! *2026-03-13, version 2.3* I used the website version but kept getting ads that covered the screen where I could no longer read/answer questions. I decided to see if there was an app in hopes I wouldn’t have the same issue. Unfortunately not the case, other reviews regarding the advertisements covering the questions/answers are true. You’re better off using a different app. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-03-12, version 2.3* There are to many ads anytime I try and take general knowledge I can’t because it wants to pull up ads every 2 seconds ### 3/5 — Ads covering questions and answers *2026-03-12, version 2.3* Even after the newest update some ads still completely cover the question. Making it impossible to know whether you answered correctly after choosing an answer. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-03-08, version 2.3* Way too many ads, especially ads covering the entire screen…. ### 3/5 — Stop being sell outs(still alot of ads it’s expected from a free app that doesn’t charge the user) *2026-02-12, version 2.3* Like really yall should not allow ads to take over the whole screen without away to get rid of them like I know yall need to make $ but that’s just over doing it because it makes it impossible to even do a test.(updated) I got a response from the dev and with the most recent update the ad issues have been fixed for me at least and app works a lot smoother now with no ads taking the whole screen space. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-02-05, version 2.1* Cant operate the app the ad covers the whole screen and doesnt go away ### 1/5 — $$!Charges!$$ *2026-02-02, version 2.1* Asked me for my card info idk why didn’t say to pay nun. I thought maybe in app purchases. I didn’t wanna risk it so I used a card that had nothing in it and sure enough $30 some dollars got declined 🤣 and immediate add coving the screen. ### 1/5 — Not functional *2026-02-01, version 2.1* I NEVER review apps, but I HAVE to address how absolutely ridiculous this app is. It runs constant ads that take up the entire page. You can’t click the answer on the practice tests, let alone submitting it or trying to get to the next question. Absolutely garbage. ### 3/5 — Hate the adds *2026-02-01, version 2.1* Love the test and all the questions that it offers. Would have given it five stars but the add are really starting to piss me off!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many pop-ups *2026-05-27, version 2.3* There are too many pop-up’s in the course and keep on resetting because the pop-ups ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-05-27, version 2.3* The pop up ads make this app completely unusable. Garbage ### 1/5 — Avoid! *2026-05-25, version 2.3* Unusable app. Ads completely block the interface, so you can’t actually use it. It also consumes an absurd amount of data (gigabytes), which is very suspicious. Feels misleading and potentially fraudulent. Avoid. ### 1/5 — Needs work *2026-05-08, version 2.3* It’s virtually impossible to use with ads on top of the questions that you can’t get rid of ### 1/5 — Adds *2026-05-05, version 2.3* To many pop ups I can’t even take the practice test ### 1/5 — Ads still take up entire screen and can’t be X’d out *2026-04-22, version 2.3* So, last night I used this app for probably 4 hours to study for my CLP, and I didn’t encounter any ads that took up the entire screen and couldn’t be X’d out. Then, today, I started doing an Air Brakes practice test, and got Like 3 questions in and a giant advertisement popped up that I couldn’t exit out of. So, I had to back out of the app and of course, lost my progress on the test. This is super annoying! To the devs: atleast make a paid add-on where you can pay for no adds. That would atleast make it somewhat better.. I have my CLP coming up and I’m in school 8 hours a day studying and coming home to do practice tests and study more on this app. Last thing I wanna deal with is wasted time on a practice test because of a ad that can’t be exited. ### 1/5 — The ads are still over taking the screen *2026-04-14, version 2.3* I was happy to use the app, but I can’t even complete a single test because the ads are impossible to close. ### 1/5 — Adds adds adds *2026-03-26, version 2.3* Can’t complete a single combinations test. Literally every 3 seconds some dumb chicken advertisement pops up and blocks the question and answers. Then when it finally goes away it’s back 3 seconds later. Impossible app to use. ### 1/5 — Horrible pop up ads *2026-03-25, version 2.3* For an app that is helping you prepare for a professional license test. The amount of pop up ads that distract you from actually learning the test questions is completely ridiculous. I can understand watching an ad after you have completed a practice test to see your results. But during the test questions? Come on. I would not recommend this app to anyone. ### 1/5 — To many adds *2026-03-16, version 2.3* Adds every 10 seconds ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best free CDL study tool, period. *2026-02-26, version 2.3* 2-26-2026, none of the previous issues with ads exist. Crist is very responsive and helpful when there is confusion. Some of the questions/answers aren’t logical but do accurately reflect what you will see on the real test. There are several versions of each test and this will indeed help you pass every exam and endorsement test. ### 5/5 — Amazing minus ads *2026-02-09, version 2.1* Just took my general, passenger, and air brake tests and passed them all first try just from doing these. The ads are kinda annoying but the value the tests provide is worth it. ### 5/5 — Grateful for this App *2026-01-21, version 2.1* This App helped me pass the general knowledge, air brakes, and hazmat tests in my state, however, the advertisements are very glitchy on the app and could be improved. ### 5/5 — Thanks *2025-11-13, version 2.1* Extremely helpful and it is free… helped me study and pass. Has ads but is not too bad. Thank you ### 5/5 — CDL Essential! *2025-08-20, version 2.1* Both the website and app were crucial to my understanding and thus passing of my tests at the DMV. And i’m so appreciative of this resource literally being FREE! Thank you Crist Family :) ### 5/5 — No issues *2025-06-10, version 2.1* I just took the General Knowledge, Air Brakes, School Bus, Passenger, and Pre-trip test with no issues. In fact I had to walk away a couple of times and my phone screen turned off and I was certain that I would have to restart - but I didn’t. I was leery of the app because of the reviews. I have had no issues with the tests on the computer, but I wanted the ease of taking them on my phone. Especially when I’ll have to sit for hours in the DMV waiting to be able to take my test. I’m not sure if the bugs have been fixed or the bad reviews had another issue going on but I’d say give it a try. I’m thankful there is a free option as good as this. ### 5/5 — It helped me to pass my permit for the CDL *2025-03-09, version 2.1* After I did resigned with the bus operator job in November 2024.I’d start studying with this app and it really did help me to pass my permit.Now am studying for my CDL license ### 5/5 — CDL passed the exam *2025-01-23, version 2.0* I trained for a couple of days and passed the exam on the first try. Illinois. ### 4/5 — Adds taking over the screen *2026-03-16, version 2.3* The update didn’t fix the add issue. It’s very annoying to have it happen repeatedly ### 4/5 — This is the app to use. *2026-02-23, version 2.3* Took my IL CLP tests today and blew right through 4 test in 20 minutes. The questions were identical to the practice tests. Only missed 2 total for all 4 tests. This app worked perfect for this besides all the adds that pop up. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
