Links To Supplemental Info Not Working

This could be a decent app for prepping for the IFR check ride. Unfortunately the links to all the supplemental info needed to answer some questions do not work. And what’s worse is the company has been aware of the problem for quite some time and has not fixed it or apparently plans to do so in the foreseeable future.

Scenarios are useless

A waste of 9.99 and I will be asking for my money back. The scenario based questions could potentially be the most useful, but you cannot get the enroute charts to open, making them impossible to answer.

No Apple app updates in 2020

Edition 10 has been out since at least early 2020, yet this app isn’t updated. Are we supposed to shell out another $10? Even if I attempted to buy the updated edition, the app still brings me to download the previous 9th edition.

Out of date

The regulations questions are mostly OK. Many scenarios are out of date and no longer reflect current airspace, routes, minimum altitudes, etc.

No real useful features for studying

You can mark questions for review but theres no tracking of study sessions to see how well you're doing. You just have to select a section and wade through its questions aimlessly. I think this could be a great app if they added the ability to track your progress. Would be very helpful to have an option like "Study X questions ordered by least studied" and "Study X questions ordered by hardest (questions you keep getting wrong)".
