### 1/5 — App still not working?

*2026-07-25*

Not working

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2026-07-19*

App still crashes immediately when trying to open. It seem like more than me have this error.

### 1/5 — Issue

*2026-06-04*

My app will not open and immediately closed when I click on it.

**Developer response:** Hi Skeejj, Please reach out to support@ifsta.org with more details of the issue you are experiencing. We would like to look into this further. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-05-29*

App does not work, you can download it but then it kicks you out every time. Seems like they need to work on things

**Developer response:** Hi asdfghefv, please reach out to support@ifsta.org with details so we may take a closer look at the issues you are experiencing. Some simple troubleshooting tips may include uninstalling/reinstalling the app, resetting your phone, or making sure your phone is up to date. Thanks.

### 2/5 — Not bad

*2026-02-03*

Not sure where/how to report error in testing material.  Question on Ch 8 re: 3 types of centrifugal pumps employed clearly states, “single stage, two stage, and multi stage”.  Testing material says the answer is ‘ganged’ vs ‘multi stage’.   Does not lend a lot of confidence to reliability of the rest of material.

**Developer response:** Hi Kennymig, thanks for the feedback. Our team is looking into this issue and will provide an app update if a correction is needed.

### 2/5 — Always crashes

*2025-11-22*

If you exit the app and go back to it or just even rewind parts it will crash. Over and over again

### 4/5 — Great for studying

*2025-10-29*

Some questions are wrong. An example is ch.8- p.295-q.251 it asks three types of centrifugal pumps in the fire service and states the correct answer is ganged when it should be multistage.

**Developer response:** Hi cevans2015, could you please submit the issue you are experiencing to support@ifsta.org? Thank you.
