Its very surface level and I can’t believe they’re charging for it, not even a free tier, you have to pay for everything. I don’t recommend to anyone who’s just looking for a quick way to study, flash cards are better. ### 4/5 — Great app but one problem with the UI *2025-08-16, version 1.5.1* I love this app! It successfully gamifies the SAT and it's so fun + I can feel my knowledge and skills increasing. One problem tho. For some reason, the start button is weird and I guess it won't get pressed unless I do it a certain way so I keep having to spam it and I'm still lucky if it works. Please fix this! ### 4/5 — no table? *2025-08-05, version 1.4.0* the app is fine but the table questions for the reading sections don’t show the table at all ### 4/5 — Could you add this? *2025-06-20, version 1.2.0* Could you add a feature where if you don’t know something, it teaches you? I don’t know or understand everything in the mathematics area and often forget what things are or how to do things ### 3/5 — Lots of Drawbacks... *2025-06-01, version 1.2.0* This applications has lots of drawbacks! I've come across a few handfuls of math questions that aren't calculated properly, and the answer they have labeled as correct is incorrect. Additionally, the english section is poorly written to where the right answer is just the question restated, but the real SAT isn't anything like that. Lastly, after you've completed a level, you're unable to go back and practice the questions again. So, once you've completed all the levels, there's pretty much nothing else you can do. Overall, the program does a mediocre job at imitating the SAT, and I'd reccomend other sites. ### 4/5 — above average app *2025-05-25, version 1.2.0* this app is really good at making learning stuff fun. the only thing that is wrong is that this is definitely not sat practice. i am a 6th grader and i complete every lesson with ease, overall its alright ### 5/5 — Easily the BEST FREE SAT Resource out there! *2025-03-27* I had yet to find an SAT resource that actually made studying for this test not boring. The roadmap is pretty easy to work through, and I appreciate the bite-sized lessons covering all SAT material. It’s so much more manageable in comparison to other SAT resources, so thank you so much. Linus is the best!! ### 5/5 — So fun and helpful! *2025-03-27, version 1.1.1* So glad to finally have a SAT study resource that both helps me prepare and is overall very enjoyable. Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — The most fun way to study for the SAT *2025-03-27, version 1.1.1* This is such a fresh take on studying for the SAT. I’m looking forward to the release of practice tests! ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2025-03-22, version 1.1.1* This app is so good. My daughter has never been great with her attention span, and traditional learning methods don’t work for her. She’d do 5 minutes from her Kaplan text book, but then her eyes world glaze over. The fun characters and the game-like experience of Linus works so well for her, instead of trying to do a longer study session that didn’t work for her she now pulls out her phone multiple times a day to do a quick 5 minute lesson on the go. Just perfect, thank you developers! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t recommend *2026-05-01, version 1.14.7* Downloaded this excited to practice only to realize EVERYTHING, yes everything costs money. $99 per MONTH. ### 1/5 — Cost is wild! *2026-03-30, version 1.14.2* Just trying to find a free SAT help app- this clearly isn’t it!!!!! Over 200 dollars????? ### 1/5 — It’s not free. Subscription $100/month. *2026-02-04, version 1.12.1* Lying about price. They require subscription $100 monthly ### 1/5 — Not optimized for phone *2026-01-05, version 1.10.2* My kid has this on his Pixel and can’t even read the math questions. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2025-11-28, version 1.10.0* It’s a cheap copy of Duolingo ### 1/5 — Behind a Paywall *2025-11-26, version 1.10.0* Looked into this app to start SAT prep, was very happy it was free to use since I didn’t want to commit to paying to any app at the current moment, as soon as I started signing up right after the question about my target score it took me to a paywall screen where I had two options either paying a 12 month subscription or a one month subscription there was no button to X out or continue. I tried reloading the app multiple times. Nothing worked. ### 1/5 — Not free *2025-10-31, version 1.8.0* I’m confused to as of why the Instagram review as well as the reviews are saying the app is free. When creating your profile, it won’t let you proceed to questions unless you select a payment plan. ### 1/5 — “Incorrect timeZone information provided” error *2025-07-31, version 1.2.1* The app has been stuck on this screen for a week. I have tried deleting and reinstalling, and hard resetting phone to no avail. ### 1/5 — bugs and not eligible for refund *2025-07-17, version 1.2.0* horrible app, too many bugs and glitches. Paid 150 for the subscription and wasn’t eligible for a refund. Ridiculous ### 2/5 — Crashed?!? *2026-02-04, version 1.12.1* The app was so what helpful but then sudden the app crashed on me and it’s been like that for two days already! I have been stuck at the “something went wrong” page , and I have tried reinstalling, restarting my phone, and updating the app and nothing worked. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easily the BEST FREE SAT resource out there! *2025-09-19, version 1.6.2* I had yet to find an SAT resource that actually made studying for this test not boring. (thank you Linus for doing such an awesome job of making my SAT journey FUN!) The roadmap is super easy to work through, and I appreciate the bite-sized lessons covering all SAT material. It’s so much more manageable in comparison to other SAT resources, so thank you so much. Linus is the best!! ### 5/5 — Amazing and cute *2025-09-11, version 1.6.1* This app is soooo good please get it if you are going to take the SAT! It has SAT-style questions, cute characters, and it is engaging. It is very accessible as there is a lot of stuff available for free. I’ve been studying every day for my SAT this weekend and next month and I feel much more confident. HIGHLY recommend!! :)) ### 5/5 — I like it - one day in *2025-08-19, version 1.5.1* It’s great so far!! i’ll post another review in a couple days and after i take the SAT with my score! ### 5/5 — If you’re not into big Sat prep websites, TRY THIS!!! *2025-07-09, version 1.2.0* I haves use multiple different Sat preps and most of them aren’t engaging as this app! This app provides a fun yet, innovative way to study for the Sat! If you are person like me who has a short attention span and can’t process a massive amount of tasks in one sitting, I recommend this app to help engage and ensure a guaranteed Sat score you desire! ### 5/5 — Sat is light work *2025-05-07, version 1.1.4* This app makes me happy because of how easy it is to study for it I going to take it in two days and I hope this app works. It will though why am I even asking. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-04-29, version 1.1.4* Super helpful ### 5/5 — Perfect App *2025-03-31, version 1.1.1* The app is above and beyond from what I expected. Every ounce of detail and note to prepare is all here ❤️💪! ### 5/5 — Nice game *2025-03-31* I always thought educational games were boring and useless but I have been proven wrong by this game. ### 5/5 — Enjoyable! *2025-03-30, version 1.1.1* I love this app! It’s super easy to use, fun, and just awesome! I’ve tried so many SAT prep services, but this is one of the few that really stuck with me—in the best way! ### 5/5 — Best SAT app *2025-03-29, version 1.1.1* Just wanted to take a moment out of prep time to say - love this app! So easy to start using and so generous with free questions! I might ask my parents to pay once practice tests is in the app. Need to lock in for the May test.
