## What is PermitPilot?

PermitPilot is an independent study aid. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any state Department of Motor Vehicles or government agency.

Get ready for your state's DMV written test with practice exams written from each state's official handbook.

STUDY PATH
Start at the beginning and work forward. Short lessons teach one topic at a time — road signs, right-of-way, traffic laws — then check what stuck. Units unlock as you finish them, or test out of any unit you already know. A readiness estimate updates with every answer (an estimate from your practice, not a guarantee), and "Review weak spots" pulls back only the questions you keep missing.

PRACTICE BY TOPIC
Pick your state and license class, practice by topic, and get the answer instantly, with an explanation of why it's right.

OFFICIAL-STYLE EXAM
Simulate the real thing: the same number of questions and the same passing score your state uses, with the option to flag questions and review them before you submit.

ROAD SIGNS
Browse the library of regulatory, warning and guide signs, or practice signs only until you recognize them without hesitating.

GUIDES
Read how to get your license step by step: the documents to bring, current fees, teen driver requirements, and what to expect on test day.

YOUR PROGRESS
See your attempts, your pass rate, and the topics that give you the most trouble. An account is optional: everything works without signing up, and if you sign in your progress syncs across devices.

The app is available in English and Spanish, and follows your iPhone's language.

## Key features

- Practice quizzes by state, license class, and topic

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-09-09

A redesigned PermitPilot, built around one thing: getting you ready for the test.

• Four tabs — Learn, Practice, Signs and Progress. Everything is one tap closer.
• Streaks, XP and badges, so the days you show up add up to something.
• Tell us your test date and we'll pace you: "about 12 questions a day until your test."
• An optional daily reminder, if you want one.
• Out of hearts? There's now one more free way to get them back.

Same free practice tests, road signs and guides. Still no account required.

### 1.2 — 2026-08-27

NEW — Learn: a guided study path.

Short lessons take you through your state's rules one topic at a time, unlocking as you go. Each lesson teaches first, then checks what stuck, and every answer updates a test-readiness estimate so you always know what to study next. Already know a topic? Test out of it and skip ahead.

Earn stars for the units you master, keep a daily streak, and tap Review weak spots to drill only the questions you keep missing. Your practice and exam answers now count toward the same progress.

The guides have moved onto the Learn tab — same guides, one tap from your path.

### 1.1 — 2026-08-03

Now in Spanish: the whole app, including every question and road sign.

New: step-by-step guides to getting your license — the documents to bring, current fees, and requirements for teen drivers.

Plus bug fixes and a smoother, more stable launch.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-29
