It was too confusing. Whenever I wanted a date to write when my exam was it just did a complete different date. Our school uses Mgra Hill education and the book is not common sense, for example when I was in 3rd grade it said a expression had no equal signs when the book showed answer the expressions when below,it showed an expression with an equal sign! ### 1/5 — Won't let me pick the correct exam date *2015-10-03, version 2.0* I keep trying to put in the date of the exam but it won't let me ### 1/5 — Won't load for me *2015-09-27, version 2.0* This app won't load for me. It just gives me a little red McGraw Hill icon and I select the date for my test and get my plan :( ### 1/5 — Rediculous. *2015-07-05, version 1.0* Worthless!! It lets me enter my exam & beginning dates, but it won't let me enter my Diagnostic Exam results!! It just says, "(null) Page(s) (null)" and when I go to my calendar, it's blank because what I want to study is nothing (null)!! I REALLY need this app!!! PLEASE FIX IMMEDIATELY! ### 1/5 — Glitch *2015-05-04, version 1.0* Was excited now just really disappointed ### 1/5 — glitch *2015-04-29, version 1.0* like most others, i've had the problem of the app freezing when i try to put in my test date. i closed the app multiple times and even redownloaded it but to no avail. my exam is in two weeks and i am extremely frustrated!! please fix bug asap ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2015-04-28, version 1.0* I also bought the AP world history study book and saw that there was an app to go with it. When I downloaded it and tapped on "choose exam date" the app froze. Don't bother trying to close and reopen it, it won't work. It's not worth your time. ### 1/5 — It doesn't work *2015-04-26, version 1.0* Whenever I press that I want to study for it asks for the exam date and then won't let me type in or select anything and then on I have to manually close the app or else it freezes. I can't even use it. ### 1/5 — Great Idea but doesn't work... *2015-04-25, version 1.0* Got the app after seeing in my APUSH prep guide and when I tried to put the exam date in, completely froze. Tried it multiple times and didn't work. This app has a great idea behind it but this really needs to be fixed if anyone wants to get any use out of it! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2015-04-24, version 1.0* Couldn't even get past putting my exam day in ### 1/5 — Can't even go past the dates *2015-04-23, version 1.0* What's the point of an app that doesn't even work. Really dumb. ### 1/5 — Still glitchy *2015-04-22, version 1.0* Same bug as all the others. White box at the bottom of the screen pops up. ### 1/5 — Broken *2015-04-22* App freezes as soon as I try to enter test date. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Please fix ASAP *2015-04-21* Like many of the other people that have written a review on here, my app seemed useful but so far I have not been able to use it. I have chosen the course of study and then a white box appears when I try to choose an exam date and it will not go away and it cannot be selected. Please fix this ASAP because as the tests are approaching, this app will soon become irrelevant! ### 1/5 — Fix bug please!!! *2015-04-16* I was really excited to use this app, but when I tried to use it I came across the same bug many other users did. When I tried to put in a date for an AP test, a white box would pop up and the app would freeze. An update without this bug would be much appreciated, as my AP tests are coming up. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I can’t even open the app *2025-09-26* It keeps saying it requires internet connection on first launch even though I do have connection. I can’t even try this app because IT WON’T OPEN ### 1/5 — Badly needs updating.... *2019-08-21* As soon as I downloaded the app, it crashed and doesn’t open. I have a brand new iOS phone so this app needs updating. The last update appears to have been 3 YEARS ago. Technology changes constantly so I don’t understand why McGraw-Hill wouldn’t realize they need to update the apps. They advertise the app with the updated purchased books as a perk but the app won’t load!!! Very disappointing!!! ### 1/5 — Needs an update *2019-04-20* This app would be so helpful but it won’t even open and is sooooo glitchy. ### 1/5 — Can’t even review the app because it won’t open *2019-04-19* Right after downloading this app, the app loaded a mc-grawhill education logo then after 1 second it proceeded to crash, displaying a black screen and exiting me out onto the home screen. I have tried tapping on the app again but the same things happens, even after restarting my phone. The app has some bugs/glitches as it won’t even let me into app or stay on it for more than 2 seconds. Considering this was suppose to enhance my 5 steps to a 5 review book which I actually spent money on, I’m disappointed the company can’t update their app to better complement their purchased review books. Makes me feel like I did not get my full money’s worth ### 1/5 — won’t even open *2019-03-24* part of the reason why i chose this review book for ap euro was because of the app...and now the app won’t even open. i feel like i’ve been played 😔 ### 1/5 — useless *2019-03-06* I hate to be harsh, but it is useless. The app will not even open and only glitches every time. The prep books are great! but I don’t recommend getting this app. ### 1/5 — Zero Stars *2018-12-19* Has not been updated in two years. Please update, as this was very useful for planning my test. ### 1/5 — AP Bio *2018-12-17* I downloaded the app to help with my AP Biology class. It doesn’t even have it. Very dissatisfied ### 1/5 — AP Student *2018-12-05* App won’t allow me to open it even with tech support. Very glitchy! ### 1/5 — Can't even set a start date *2017-08-05* Set study date is stuck at November 17 2017. If I try to go to September 1st 2017, it doesn't allow me to, as if the app thinks that's going back in time. Unless it's fixed, I won't be purchasing these books with my budget and having our kids use this app! ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works great! *2015-04-14, version 1.0* Saw lots of reviews saying that it froze when entering a test date, tried it for myself. WORKS COMPLETELY FINE! Very helpful! ### 5/5 — Glitch free! Definitely recommend! *2015-04-09* When I went to download this I noticed that it had really bad reviews because of some freezing glitch, so I almost didn't get it. I got it anyways and they must've fixed the glitch because I had absolutely no problems! This app works great and will definitely keep me on track to pass the AP exam! ### 5/5 — Helpppp *2014-10-02* I really want to start this. It looks like it can help. But I can't even put in the dates. Every time I try it just freezes. ### 3/5 — Glitchy? *2017-03-11* The book is great but the page numbers on the study schedule do not match up with the text book... so I can't use it :( ### 3/5 — I like it *2017-01-12* It's good for following the book, but it's really glitchy. It needs to be fixed so the app can be used better ### 3/5 — Glitches, but I worked around it. *2016-01-20* Like almost all of the other reviews say, this app GLITCHES. It doesn't allow to enter the exam start dates. HOWEVER, I found a way to get around it: put some random date, it doesn't have to be your actual testing day. You can change that later. Continue to the next step. After that, go to the settings menu to change the dates. The dates WILL STILL GLITCH. To get past this, scroll to the correct month/day/year, but you need to scroll ONCE. You cannot hold the screen, slide your finger, let go, and do it again. This will make it glitch. Try to get to the month/day/year without EVER lifting your finger. This worked for me, I hope this helped one of you! Happy studying! ### 3/5 — Not for crammers *2015-05-09, version 1.0* It won't let me choose my actual exam date because it knows I'm screwed ### 3/5 — Good idea but doesn't work *2014-10-09, version 1.0* I like the idea of this app but it freezes right at the beginning of adding dates in. Please fix this!! ### 2/5 — Ehh *2015-08-14, version 2.0* For some reason it won't let me change the date for the ap exam it keeps going back to feb 14 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
