Crashed my entire phone

Opened the app and immediately crashed my phone. Couldn’t even turn it off. Had to hard reset the entire device. Happened twice so had to delete

Went up 100 Points!

I love this app and I would definitely recommend it! I started using it and I got a 930 when I first took the test and then I went up to a 1030! I know the score is low but going up 100 points in that short time period is really good by just using one app!

No access

I have a subscription and for some reason I no longer have access to anything on the app

App does not allow you to sign up for subscription!!

Horrible experience and no customer service. The app kicks you out when you want to subscribe.

Lots of glitches

The app keeps crashing when we try to purchase it.

Bad app that is a cash grab

I got this app from a YouTube video. There are many things wrong with it. 1: the quick quiz it has you take, doesn’t even assess every concept. In my quick quiz, I got 0 trigonometry or geometry questions. Whatever it doesn’t ask, it just assumes you don’t know?
2: the flash cards are wrong for the math part. The conversion factor from degrees to radians is multiplication by pi / 180. In the app, it has these flip flopped in the flash cards where it asks how to convert from degrees to radians and vice versa. 3: this app is simply inefficient and a waste of time. You’ll get ridiculously easy questions that won’t actually prepare you for the sat.

Not worth the money

I would use it if it were free, but $12.99 is a month is expensive for something arguably worse than Khan academy. It’s really hard to track your progress, and there’s a cap on the number of questions you can ask AI. If has good questions if you know what you’re doing, but you can only be tested on individual topics— which is the point of a person studying on the SAT. I got a 1340 when just using Khan which is good when compared to my 1220 on the PSAT that I got only a few weeks prior. I think if this app were more developed and less expensive then I would use it because it does ask good questions. It’s just inconvenient to study with.

Don't buy it

bad app many issues and mistakes in the questions. half the questions repeate and half are questions that are stolen from Erica metlzer and have been used already online. Some of the questions don't even have the correct answer. barely any explanation of why the other options are wrong. Don't buy it.

Limited and Confusing

my kid went from a 1220 to getting 20% in Math and 30% on English . This app is ruining his confidence.

Changes need to be done

I’ve noticed few disadvantages on this app
Have you guys tried to make some portion of quizzes, drills etc free
Cause this is to the advantage of people who have money to purchase what of those who don’t have the resources or needs
We all want to help preparing students for their big day
I suppose if you change some aspect of it
It will be accepted worldwide
Thank you

decent

needs a question report button
needs more diverse questions-I keep running into the same questions
include practice tests and tips

good but needs a question report button

this app is very boosted by college prep “influencers” and it’s not bad, questions are pretty good but they need to be double checked. multiple questions will have the discrepancies between the answer button and explanation.

Won’t log in

It won’t let me log into to a different device, and is redirecting to the subscription page.

decent!

need more explanation and variety. practice tests would be good. also some answers do not seem correct. give harder questions for mod 2 question types

Response from developer

Hi there! Thank you so much for your review. We just added in more difficult math questions, based on what we heard was on the March 2024 and May 2024 test! We would love to hear more from you about how you think we can improve as well. We are constantly updating this app based on user feedback, as it is our goal to provide the best digital SAT app available to students! Please email us at preptlyapp@gmail.com so we can set up a time to chat with you! Thanks so much for using the Preptly app!

Absolute Lifesaver

This app has seriously been a game-changer for me in terms of studying. It's so easy to use and I love how convenient it is to have tons of practice questions right on my phone. The explanations are extremely helpful and have genuinely taught me more than those heavy SAT books. I can study wherever and whenever I want with it and have found to be preparing more because of it. This app is definitely worth downloading and I recommend you do if you're looking to get your scores up :)

Great App

This app is great - has thousands of questions to go over. Takes a lot of the stress out of studying for the SAT, can look through this app very casually. Expert answers for questions that you do not understand. Best part is, it is fun! You can compete against others, so it is a fun competition. Would definitely recommend to a friend!

Not Bad

As a test prep coach, I am constantly looking for new resources my students can use to prep for the DSAT. What I like about this app is that it really appeals to teenage students. I haven’t seen these questions before, which leads me to believe that they are unique. I like the tutor tips and how they keep the answer explanations pretty simple. Just to be clear - if you’re looking for full tests, this is not the resource you want to use. This is more of a daily practice app to practice questions in shorter spurts. My only qualm is that I wish they had more emphasis on vocabulary since it’s such a big part of the new test. Overall, I will be recommending it to my students.

Best way to study!!

The Preptly App is a super fun and efficient way to study for the SAT, this is a great resource with the new digital SAT to learn how to answer questions from a screen with a huge range of categorized question types. I have been using this app for a while and I have customized my studying and the types of questions I need to work on. It is fun to track your progress in friendly competition with others on the app’s leaderboard.

If you are taking a digital SAT I think this app is a great way to prepare.

Worst app I've ever used

Do not be fooled after you sign up it asks for money if they really want to help make it free and it is not worth it I should have studied another way

Terrible!! Save your money

Ok… so let me begin by saying I’m a master SAT reading/writing tutor who purchased this to preview for my students. The questions are awful! The “right” answers to some actually go against the conventions of Standard Written English, which is horrifying but I guess not surprising if you consider that - as the company admits - these questions are composed using AI. Ugh. For the prior quality I’ve experienced with Strategic Test Prep’s videos, I expected a lot more. I can’t speak for the math problems, but the English side was a huge disappointment and could actually do more harm than good my making students internalize incorrect grammar rules. For shame! Vet your questions better, Preptly. Or pay qualified humans to write and check them. Also you couldn’t come up with a better name than one that basically copied an already-existing company, Preply?? That should’ve been my first red flag…
