### 4/5 — Love this app

*2019-02-23, version 6.7*

I love doing these questions and I love that it always gives you rationales. My only complaint is there needs to be more non clinical. I do love the vast expansive question topics.

### 4/5 — Subject

*2018-11-03, version 6.5.6*

It would be nice to be able to do questions by subject too.

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2017-05-12, version 6.3*

Passed ANCC this week, I never did well on these questions but the rationales were excellent and I think they played a significant role in my success!!!

### 4/5 — Sunny nurse

*2017-02-03, version 6.1.3*

Very helpful app

### 4/5 — Hopeful

*2016-07-10, version 6.0.2*

Using daily with my Fitzgerald review materials, testing soon. Hope that this helps.

### 4/5 — Helpful review app

*2016-05-16, version 5.3.1*

I really enjoy the question of the day. The questions in this app are more challenging than other tools. I feel like it is preparing me well.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2016-04-30, version 5.3.1*

I am an FNPst soon to finish my degree this is a very helpful tool not only to learb but to discover the areas that need inprovement or more attention. Great price!

### 5/5 — Study on the go

*2016-04-25, version 5.3.1*

Great study app and great price!

### 5/5 — Love the App

*2016-04-14, version 5.3.1*

As a DNP student I find this app to be very organized and helpful. The daily questions keep me on my toes and the rationale helps cement the information in my Brain!

### 4/5 — Great for reviewing

*2016-03-17, version 5.3.1*

Really like this app. Wish I could open the question of the day earlier, it isn't released till 0900. Great to review on the go!

### 4/5 — My on the go study tool.

*2016-03-01, version 5.3.1*

I love this app because I can take it anywhere I go. It's easy to access, each question gives you feedback with rational which makes it easier to understand. I will recommend it.

### 5/5 — FNP Mastery

*2016-02-23, version 5.3.1*

Such a great resource tool!

### 4/5 — Update App

*2016-02-04, version 5.3*

I see Fitzgerald is being used as reference for the questions. There is an updated review book available (2015) that should be used to keep up with recommended guidelines. Other than that this is a great resource!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not a great option for AANP study

*2019-04-11, version 6.7*

This review app is nice in that it is convenient, well organized and accessible.  However, the questions are extremely detail oriented and appears more geared towards medical students then NPs.  I did not find the questions particularly helpful due to this and feel the Fitzgerald and APEA reviews were much better!

### 1/5 — Pocket FNP

*2016-07-09, version 6.0.2*

The new version is not as good as the previous version. I do not use the app as much as I did before it was updated.

### 1/5 — Too detailed

*2016-05-23, version 5.3.1*

These questions are way too detailed and not representative of actual board type questions.  Might actually hurt you more than help you focusing on these small details.  Definitely would not recommend.

### 1/5 — No peds question... Too detailed for FNP boards.

*2016-05-04, version 5.3.1*

The app is too detailed to make studying for boards effective. I was under the impression the app was supported by Dr. Fitzgerald but it only references her study guide... There are NO peds questions. I did like the qotd and the count down to test. This app had caused me much anxiety for studying and possibly wasted my time focusing on too many details. I would not purchase this app again.

### 1/5 — Waste of study time

*2016-05-02, version 5.3.1*

Just took the aanp agnp exam. The review questions on this app are a total waste of time. The questions are far too detailed and subsequently useless.

### 3/5 — Frequent freezing of the app

*2019-02-23, version 6.7*

Every time I open this app, it takes a long time to load and it freezes often. Because of the freezing, I’m not able to use all of the options provided by the app. Sad that I paid for this app. 

Questions are good and helpful, but the freezing is frustrating.

### 3/5 — Preparing for FNP

*2016-05-01, version 5.3.1*

I find this app very helpful, helps me to focus on my weak areas.

### 3/5 — FNP APP

*2016-01-29, version 5.3*

Great app. Wish we had the option of choosing questions based on body systems ex cardiology, pediatrics, or GI

### 3/5 — Decent questions, but overpriced

*2015-12-31, version 5.3*

I agree the questions are more difficult than the exam.  I also feel the app is a bit overpriced.

### 3/5 — NP protest

*2015-12-16, version 5.3*

Enjoyed answering all the questions but to challenge ones knowledge need a large question bank of 1500 or more. Questions need to have more scenarios related to patients Rationales for correct answer are explained well and understandable. The daily questions seem so far to be from the bank of questions already answering. Overall it is ok.

### 5/5 — Good app for study

*2019-07-10, version 6.7.3*

This was a good app for study time and good rationals along with ease of using the app on my phone at my convenience. The price was right too.

### 5/5 — Latest update stinks!

*2019-03-08, version 6.7*

I’ve had this app for a while.  I subscribed to this app and paid for the premium version (or whatever they want to call
It).  Since the most recent update, app crashes regularly and constantly gives “Cannot Find Questions...” error.  Takes forever to load.

LOVE the app... when I can get it to work.

### 5/5 — Exam prep

*2019-02-20, version 6.7*

This is s great quest APP it helps to determine which areas are weakest ie: assessment, diagnosis, plan and evaluation. It is helping to understand that planning and evaluation are my weak areas, probably due to my lack of experience but now when I study I particulAryl focus on those areas. Testing soon. Fingers crossed

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2017-06-24, version 6.3*

Love that it uses the Fitzgerald review and cites page numbers. Love being able to practice questions whenever I have a free moment.

### 5/5 — App

*2017-06-03, version 6.3*

I love this app!!! I am truly learning how to answer questions appropriately!!! It really helps that rationales are provided. I feel ready for the boards!!!

### 5/5 — Soooo Helpful

*2017-05-17, version 6.3*

I can use this at night, in the dark, when I'm trying to get the kids to sleep. I use this when I'm on the go and can't carry all my books with me. I use this when I have a wait-time that's unavoidable. Soooo worth the money and very helpful with immediately available rational!

### 5/5 — FNP

*2017-05-02, version 6.3*

Love this APP!!

### 5/5 — Great Review

*2016-09-07, version 6.0.9*

Love the "question of the day."  This is a handy study guide from Fitzgerald.

### 5/5 — FNP app

*2016-08-27, version 6.0.7*

This is a convenient way to study for the FNP certification. You can choose the number of questions per quiz and read the rationales after each question.

### 5/5 — Excellent for reviewing

*2016-05-18, version 5.3.1*

Love the question of the day. Would be nice to have an afternoon question too. Excellent app I have learned so much!
