## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Weird

*2021-04-10, version 6.7.9*

I just downloaded this app, which the App Store and the company obviously allowed me to do, and as soon as I opened it I was prompted to download something else. It said my version of the app was no longer working. What it offered me to download instead may be totally fine and work great, but it’s too sketchy for me since there was no indication the app wouldn’t work when I downloaded it.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2019-11-01, version 6.7.6*

App still freezes after update don not ware you money on an app that repeats its questions ,only want your money ,did not helped me on my exam at all.

**Developer response:** Hi Charlie! Please contact us through the app and we’ll get this problem sorted out asap. We appreciate your understanding and support.

### 1/5 — It used to work but now it is unreliable

*2019-01-16, version 6.7*

I liked this app, but now it has stopped working. Every time I open it, takes very long for it to upload questions. Sometimes it freezes too and when this happens you have to restart the app. To make things even worse, it got to the point that I can no longer use it.  I always update my phone to the latest iOS version and I know that my phone is not the problem(I have an iPhone 8 Plus). Please developers fix this issue! I still have to study for my NLN exam and this is driving me crazy!!!!

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE THIS APP FOR SCIENCE

*2019-01-03, version 6.7*

The app has a great design, but I studied everything on here religiously, and I can honestly say it did not help. The reading and math were somewhat similar to the test, but I am begging you do not rely on this for science. I went over every science question they had for about three months, and not one was even similar to the science portion of this test. If you’re studying for the pax I recommend buying something from NLN themselves because I tried other platforms to study for science as well, and they didn’t come close to the test either.

### 1/5 — No help. Kept freezing over and over again

*2018-10-01, version 6.5.7*

I got this thinking it would help my study for the pax test. Well, it continued to freeze over and over again during tests and continued to give me error codes. I reached out to the customer service and they told me it was a “user error”. It’s 2018, I know how to use an app, and by no means was it my fault that their program was faulty. Don’t waste your time or money on this. I got other programs that were great and helped me pass the test successfully the first time!

**Developer response:** Hi Seattle-K! We're sorry to hear this. A lot of work went into creating a convenient and affordable PAX study app. We realize we're not perfect but we do our best to help our customers when they reach out to us. If you're still having trouble with the app, please reach back out so we can get you set up with a new account. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Too much detail that’s not on the test

*2018-09-28, version 6.5.7*

Wasted a whole lot of time studying things that are far more in depth for the PAX test. I definitely feel more knowledgeable but not necessarily for the pax test.

**Developer response:** Hi Tiffany, we're sorry to hear you feel that way! 😔 Our NLN PAX app has a proven track record of helping students successfully prepare for and pass the exam. Surely, you enjoyed your time studying with the app more than a 1-star rating?

### 2/5 — Its okay

*2019-12-20, version 6.7.6*

Repetitive questions also if you are planning to give PAX exam i wouldnoy suggests this but it is good for Hesi exam ...

**Developer response:** Hi there! So sorry to hear about this issue! Please contact us through the app and we’ll get this problem sorted out asap. We appreciate your understanding and support.

### 2/5 — Do not recommend !

*2017-01-24, version 6.0.11*

Although the app says that it contains over 1,000 questions it keeps showing the same questions... Also it has questions showing incorrect information...for example, one question alluded to the organelles in a prokaryotic cell! Crazy!!!!!

### 3/5 — Nln Pax

*2017-07-01, version 6.3*

Needs more questions

### 4/5 — i like but

*2018-01-23, version 6.4.1*

### 5/5 — Best app for NLN

*2018-09-01, version 6.5.6*

Amazing app helps me review everything from chemistry, anatomy, nutrition and even microbiology. Love this app mostly use the science but it’s amazing

### 5/5 — Freezing non stop. Won’t keep me logged in

*2018-07-26, version 6.5.4*

I’ve had this app since December of 2017 and for the last month my app freezes and keeps logging me out. I updated my phone thinking that may be the reason why and it still loads slow and freezes 😩

**Developer response:** Hi there! We’re sorry to hear the app is misbehaving! What you’re describing is not typical app behavior. Please contact us so we can provide suggestions on how to improve your study experience. We can be reached through the app’s Settings menu — we’ll keep an eye out for your message! 👀
