Love this app!! 😌
One of the largest question banks I’ve seen in general! I’m so so grateful for all the studying and practice opportunities with this app! 😊
It’s great
So I subscribed for a month because I couldn’t offer to pay more than $20 for GRE prep. This is the only app that let you subscribe on a monthly basis. I finished the 1000 problems on the front page by doing 33+ problems every day and studying the flash cards when I commuted. Walked out with 325+. It really helped.

Free version useless
Can only do ten questions a day. If you take the exam version and do ten questions, you can never do the next ten questions. It just restarts at the same ten you’ve already but counts against you. And then you can’t ever see the results if you were right or wrong. So poorly thought out
WORST
these mocks are not at all representative of the actual GRE
THE VERBAL IS NOT AT ALL!!

Doesn’t work
App doesn’t work, wouldn’t give me the trial, nor it would let me purchase it.
Love this app!
I have the Manhattan 5 lb. book but prefer this app for its interactive features. I honestly believe it is better than any GRE book! Thank you! It has become my daily routine with coffee!
Easy to use but needs a few upgrades
For the iPad version, would be helpful if the app was compatible with the Split View so that I could keep my notes all in one place.
Best app for GRE
I like this app very much! Questions are organized by subject. Answer explanations are very simple and elegant. I like the step by step approach whereas other GRE apps seem to overcomplicate things. The interface is also uncluttered unlike some apps that bombard you with ads.
Wont even let me log in?
I am able to log in on the webpage but unable to do so in this app.

Thanks for your feedback. The app and the website are separate products, so you will need to create an account to use the app. If you have any other concerns, please contact support@hltcorp.com or call 319-246-5271.
Same question from Manhattan 5 lb
All the question are same from Manhattan 5 lb.
If u already solved that book, then u can avoid using this app.

Thanks for your feedback, Amit. It's true, the content of this app is based on the print edition. We believe the interactive aspects have added to the value, and we hope you'll consider rating the quality of the experience as well as the content.
Paid for the subscription and can’t use it, app has no support
I paid for the monthly subscription and checked to be sure. I have restored it a few times and still can’t access the ‘locked’ content. I can’t find the in app support. Why is there no way to contact support from the app?! I’m paying for content I can’t use.
Excessive Glitches Inhibit Learning
I really want to love this app. In terms of the practice questions and the ease of making studying a daily habit, it’s absolutely wonderful. I find myself reaching for the app frequently, since my phone is always with me and physical GRE prep books are heavy and harder to navigate.
Unfortunately, the software glitches in this app make it virtually unusable. As others have mentioned, it frequently loads blank questions, or the question you’re working on randomly disappears — forcing you to reload the screen and lose your progress.
Even worse, answer explanations that contain charts or formulae do not render properly. Several times I’ve seen blank charts that go off to the right side of the screen ad infinitum. You can scroll to the right to your heart’s content, but you’ll never actually see the answer explanation that the chart is supposed to contain.
An app that costs $15/month should not contain these kinds of bugs — especially a learning app. More than once, these glitches have prevented me from learning from my mistakes and improving. It’s extremely frustrating.
This is basic stuff that any app developer team should be able to fix. I’ve tried reporting these bugs, but there’s no option to do that in the app. So I guess all I can do is leave a negative App Store review.

Didn’t really help boost my scores...
The app is very well done, but I feel like the study materials were definitely lacking.
I was getting consistent right answers on the questions and doing them fast by the time exam day was close. But then I got to the exam and the questions on the second quantitative section were so much harder than even the most difficult questions on the app.
I scored 155 in the quantitative (because I didn’t finish - I was really thrown off by the hard problems) and 157 on verbal. I’m not the best reader so I guess the verbal score was decent, but 155 on quant was wild. For some context, I have a bachelor’s in applied mathematics.
I definitely don’t think the prep pack is completely to blame but I’m very disappointed that my performance on the practice questions was not at all indicative of what my performance on the exam would have been. The questions were just really easy compared to actual test day.
So long story short, this is a great resource but I would definitely supplement it with other more difficult study kits.

Pretty good
Pretty good app. Would be five stars if I could see all the solutions on my iPad Mini. Often they are garbled and indecipherable.
No easy way to cancel
Beware once you sign up it’s super hard to cancel. Not obvious to do and of course they keep charging you.
App is good to bad this gets in the way

Good content
The content is good but there’s another free GRE verbal app that has exactly same content as the verbal reasoning section.

Thanks for your feedback, Zac! We believe our content, developed by professional writers and educators, is worth the price! Let us know if we can make it even better!
Excessive software glitches ruin the experience
Content wise the app is great. Questions, explanations, and review functionalities are awesome (you’ll of course have to do the 3 day free trial then pay $20 to make it worth the content), but the app almost without fail glitches and loads blank questions that make you have to keep going back and reentering to get it to load. It doesn’t lose your progress, but it makes reviewing and taking practice tests impractical due to how frustrating and time consuming it is. Fix all the UI glitches and it’ll be a great experience, I’m sure!

Text completion changes
Note for developers: Text Completion questions that you get wrong have an extremely bright, red background and you can’t clearly read incorrect answer choices because the font is light gray. Please use a different tone of red for incorrect answer choices. It is remarkably unpleasant to try to read answer choices with the red background.

Awesome app, great customer service
Large number of practice questions. Simple layout. Had an issue with the app and the subscription but their great customer service team sorted it out quickly. Highly recommend.
Effective Study Tool
Spent about three months studying for the GRE, and my only materials were this app and The Official Guide to the GRE General Test. Just took the test today, 166 Quantitative, 170 Verbal.
The way you can mark things for review later was definitely helpful, and the way they categorized the math questions by subject helped identify broader areas I needed to focus on.
One potential suggestion: when I first started studying, I went to All Quantitative Reasoning and it immediately dropped me into the most advanced problems. Defaulting to Algebra or the Mixed Review category would have probably made more sense.
