On the NCLEX & in school you will get points for those correct answers. I also don’t like the wording on some of the questions… besides those issues I had, in my opinion for the price of the subscription over all the app Is a very good at your finger tips study tool for nclex prep. I am very grateful for that because these other nclex prep companies charge SO much money ### 4/5 — IPad mini *2024-07-14, version 17.0* Some of the apps features won’t work on the iPad mini! Please fix 🥲 ### 4/5 — Would give 5 stars if *2024-03-02, version 11.5.11483* I love this app it gives you numerous questions to answer, but I wish it would develop questions based on your progress. That way you know what you need to work on for the NCLEX ### 2/5 — I pay *2023-07-03, version 8.110.11230* I pay For two reviews my RN and PN never used them once. you keep asking me for more money . At least give me a chance to study. ### 5/5 — Ngn nclex *2023-05-05, version 8.109.11160* I passed my nclex pn yesterday !! I mainly utilize this app and I found it to be very helpful!! Thank you mastery for the great content! ### 5/5 — PN *2023-03-22, version 8.105.10881* This is the only one who help me pass the NCLEX. Rationale is definitely the student to fully understand the content of each questions. ### 4/5 — Need to be able to adjust units *2023-02-14, version 8.105.10866* There is an app for Canadian RNs but this is the only PN app. We should be able to change the units so it is easier to understand. Otherwise, this app is great so far. ### 5/5 — LPN student *2022-09-26, version 8.98.10517* This app has really helped me practice for NCLEX and I’m so happy I came across it! ### 3/5 — Difficult Questions, Some Outside Scope *2022-07-05, version 8.91.10177* This app is OK but the questions are difficult for a PN graduate. I have taken multiple practice exams with a high predictability of passing (ATI And SIMCLEX) but find myself falling within a 49-50% range for correct responses on this app. I’m hoping the real exam questions are easier than these but that’s TBD. ### 5/5 — I’ve learned more year on this app than the 1 year I’ve been studying on UWORLD! *2022-04-09, version 8.84.9863* Iv ### 2/5 — Ugh *2022-01-28, version 8.75.9500* I got charged for 2 months and the app didnt even let me use my subscription all i could use was the free daily questions!!!! ### 5/5 — Passed NCLEX after 10 years post Grad *2022-01-12, version 8.66.9181* I’m so thankful for this app, the category breakdowns, NCLEX section etc. I can type in anything and answer questions based on, just that. This app has shaped me. I did approximately 1300 questions. I completed all of the NCLEX quizzes. I had a 52% performance score. I also studied remar quick facts and I would Google anything I was unfamiliar with, I’d write it down on a flash card and set it in front of me. Rotating my flash cards until I was familiar with them. I passed NCLEX at 125 questions. Thank you so much. ### 5/5 — I passed!!!!! *2021-10-02, version 8.61.8972* This app is amazing! I passed with 75 questions! I followed their 30 day plan. Do not hesitate, download this app! ### 5/5 — LPN *2021-09-03, version 8.61.8972* This is a great app Thanks for everything And making my dreams come true ### 3/5 — Bug fixes needed *2021-05-24, version 8.55.8536* This is an overall good app. I’ve been using it for awhile and I wanted to utilize it more now that my exam is coming up. I recently paid for the subscription and since then whenever I open the app I get the home page and then a white screen. I restarted my phone, deleted and reinstalled the app and it’s the same situation. It’s really frustrating to know that I spent money on what I thought would be beneficial for it to now stop working efficiently. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Incompatibility *2023-10-01, version 9.6.11422* Paid for a month subscription but the app is not compatible with IOS17 currently and I’m unable to use it. Hoping it gets fixed soon! ### 1/5 — Not impressed *2022-02-03, version 8.77.9606* I can’t click on a different subject to study it only wants me to study pediatrics and maternity when I want to study another subject. Doesn’t give me any other options very low quality ### 1/5 — THEY CHARGE $95 A YEAR LATER… READ THE FINE PRINT THRU WILL NOT REFUND THE PAYMENT. *2021-12-01, version 8.66.9181* THEY CHARGE $95 A YEAR LATER… READ THE FINE PRINT THEY WILL NOT REFUND THE PAYMENT. NOT THRILLED TO PAY $95.., especially since I’m already a licensed nurse. There is no option to discontinue the app or contact anyone. ### 1/5 — Worthless! Scam! *2021-05-21, version 8.55.8536* After 2 weeks of using this app. It stopped working. I just get a blank white screen every time I open it. I have tried deleting the app, rebooting it and turning my phone off and on and still go nothing!! I paid for the 3 months subscription. This was such a waste of money. Stay away from this app! ### 1/5 — Paid subscription and cannot access! *2021-05-19, version 8.55.8536* I tried clicking on app support and got a message saying that the website was not legitimate and someone could be attempting to steal my personal information. I’ve been using this app for weeks and have a paid subscription until the end of July yet after an update is a white screen. Nothing loads. I’m upset and I want reimbursement of the app will not work. People rely on sites like this to help prepare for the biggest test that will determine their careers. Please developer make this right. I want to access my account. ### 1/5 — NCLEX *2020-09-29, version 8.6.5957* Big scam ### 1/5 — NOT WHAT I EXPECTED *2020-05-14, version 8.6.5957* I purchased this program under the pretense that I would be able to access the different courses that are offered. I was lured by the discount and purchased access. Now whenever I go to the course or questions I need , it’s locked. I have to purchase to see it or purchase the explanation. I’m confused as to what did I pay for? I’ve sent two emails to the nurse@hltcorp and no response. I’m very disappointed and seeing what else I can do through my credit union. I’m sure there are other programs available that have more access than this. It should have been more specific about what you get for your subscription. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2020-03-08, version 8.6.5957* I have not been able to use this app for awhile it keeps crashing every time I try to open it. ### 1/5 — Pointless without Subscription *2020-01-15, version 8.6.5957* You get no rationale unless you subscribe to the $19.99 a month. It’s pointless to even offer a free version. Waste of time unless you subscribe ### 1/5 — Unprofessional *2019-11-13, version 8.6.5957* I login to different devices to use this app and they deactivated my paid account because I was “sharing it” apparently. They didn’t communicate anything about the concern. They just skipped to action which is unprofessional. Plus I see they are having rationales similar to Kaplan which is absolutely useless and not helpful. I want to know why this particular question is wrong. I don’t want a generalized overview. That’s why I have a text book. This app was great years ago but has been declining in customer service and professionalism. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Gertie’s review *2025-10-23, version 31.4* You guys should give Gertie a complimentary package of your app, for a full year!! ### 5/5 — Review *2025-10-01, version 29.6* I really really appreciate the opportunity to learn more, offered by this app. I cannot afford the complete cost for the full educational experience, so the 10 questions a day option works best for me. The explanations following the questions are easy to understand and are a great learning tool. I’m going to be 75 in 3 days, so the time required and the cost of continuing education are not doable. If I had only started earlier………… I have 4 degrees, 2 Associates, one BSW and a MSW. I have been blessed to be able to work in both fields. I cannot even tell you how MUCH I miss working and learning. I became a RN at the age of 48. This particular (and special!) app has allowed me to feel both excited and challenged as I learn more each and every day. I can’t say enough! I am just so grateful for this app! Thank You!!! ### 5/5 — Please give this app a try. *2025-04-22, version 26.0* I didn’t use any other resources for studying for the nclex-pn. I had bought this app in December, but really didn’t start TRULY studying until March. My test day was April 1st, and I was VERY nervous. I passed at 85 questions!!! This is the ONLY RESOURCE I used. JUST GET it. I helped me. ### 5/5 — PASSED *2024-12-27, version 23.2* I used this for about 3 months before I took the NCLEX and although these questions were harder than what I seen on the test, this app helped me breakdown, answer questions and understand what they COULD be looking for when taking the NCLEX. I passed my first time in 85 questions. It’s worth checking out! Thank you Mastery 🥰 ### 5/5 — Definitely recommend *2024-11-25, version 20.2* I used this app for about a month before my NCLEX PN I didn’t use anything else to study. I passed the first try. I felt it really prepared me for what I should expect question wise. Really read those rationals those helped tremendously. If you’re wondering what to use to study for your NCLEX I recommend this app. I didn’t spend any money on it. I used my free 10 questions a day and felt that helped a lot. ### 5/5 — Nursing on *2024-08-20, version 19.2* A great way to refresh and review ### 5/5 — Love the app! *2024-04-05, version 13.0* I love the way this app breaks down each question! You have multiple learning opportunities with each question! ### 5/5 — Helped so much *2024-02-27, version 11.5.11483* I graduated nursing school in 2015. The first time I took the NCLEX I figured I would be good to go since I just finished school. I didn’t pass. So I downloaded this app and paid for it for 3 months and I swear it was this app that helped me pass. It asked me daily questions and then would tell me the correct answer if I got it wrong. Several of the questions I had I actually remember getting on my NCLEX exam. I’ve recommended this app to so many people. ### 5/5 — Good *2024-01-31, version 11.1.11468* Wish it was free lol ### 5/5 — Great PN NCLEX prep app!! *2023-09-27, version 9.6.11422* This app is very user friendly and has questions that are very reasonable. I recommend anyone to use it! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
