It should be easy to contact someone and get an issue resolved. Additionally, the fee states $24.99 a month for the product; however, I was charged $24.99 per week. Major issues for a product that adds a great deal of value. Please fix these things in addition to advertising the correct rates. ### 5/5 — Good. *2025-06-10, version 1.1* So far so good.

The questions are realistic, the explanations are clear, and the interface is super user-friendly. I love the ability to study on the go and track my progress. Highly recommend for anyone preparing for the PHR exam! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Deceiving Pricing Tactics *2026-05-26, version 1.1* In-app purchases advertises two options Lifetime $89.99/once and 7-days free after trial $24.99/month. That’s not the case, they charge on a weekly basis. I have sent two emails requested clarification, hoping it’s a glitch but have not received any response. Upon reviewing previous comments, it’s appears to be a known misrepresentation which is a shame because the app itself is great but not $24.99 per week great. ### 1/5 — COSTS $25/WEEK! *2025-04-20, version 1.1* At first, thought this app worked well and was ok with the high cost of $24.99/month. Unfortunately the “premium monthly subscription” is not a monthly subscription at all, but a weekly one. It’s scummy and scammy to misrepresent the price like that. And for that price, I would have opted to purchase official HRCI materials instead. ### 1/5 — hidden fees *2025-04-09, version 1.1* i was charged 25(plus tax for each week. when it should be 25 a month. ### 1/5 — Broken *2025-02-05, version 1.1* Full of bugs, typos, and poor formatting. ### 1/5 — Can’t Cancel *2024-11-19, version 1.1* I put this app on my phone and decided it wasn’t for me (within about 30 mins). It states free 7 day trial but there’s nowhere to cancel. Guess I’m stuck with this app and they have my money. The app is not even listed in my subscriptions to be able to cancel???? ### 1/5 — Do not purchase *2024-09-13* The monthly rate that is advertised is actually a weekly rate. There isn’t any way to stop payments within the app, I have send an email to their “contact us” and wait for them to respond, while being charged. I’ll be having my credit card stop the payments. ### 1/5 — HRCI Exam Prep *2024-08-22, version 1.1* While the content is good, the app has charged me $24.99 four times in one month. After trying to get in contact with them with no reply I had to cancel the subscription. Be prepared to pay a lot more than expected. ### 1/5 — Misleading cost *2024-08-16, version 1.1* Very difficult to understand pricing. I was charged per week and not per month. There is no place to review the amount or your subscription through the app. This is very misleading and your costs are not transparent. ### 1/5 — Please note it’s per WEEK not per month *2024-07-13, version 1.1* 29.99 per week. I thought it was monthly. Took me about 3 weeks to truly notice. Scam. ### 1/5 — Do not use! *2024-06-06, version 1.1* What it started as a free-trial went on to a monthly subscription. Ok- my mistake, as I forgot to cancel the free trial. Then, I have gotten charged four times a month $24.99 for ‘monthly subscriptions’.
