### 3/5 — Problem  1141

*2025-02-01*

Test Question 1141 asks which of the possible answers is NOT a concern in a certain flight scenario. While grading the test it shows the correct answer to be a choice that WOULD BE a concern. It even goes on to explain why the choice IS a concern. Again, the assignment was to choose the answer that is NOT a concern. While the explanation was absolutely correct, the choice for a correct answer to the question was not.
There are a handful of questions I’ve noticed over the course of my last 8 practice tests that are impossible to grade correctly. This being the most recent. I think this app is a great tool otherwise. I’ve consistently scored 90-95% but scoring 100 proves challenging when these problems exist.

### 3/5 — Good test, but doesn’t explain incorrect answers

*2022-07-14*

This seems to be a pretty good app for practicing for the actual test. The biggest issue is, when you run in Test mode -once you get results, and you look at the explanation of why you missed some, it doesn’t tell you what the right answer is. 
It does have a small paragraph, but in many cases this still does not explain which answer was correct.

### 3/5 — Needs updating

*2022-02-15*

I used this app for prep prior to a test in 2017, at that time it was top notch for preparing, however, after letting my license expire I had to retest- and this time (2/22) the actual test was vastly different than what the app prepared me for.  I still passed, but many of the topics were not adequately covered in the current version.

### 4/5 — Helpful but needs to be updated

*2021-05-13*

Overall this app is pretty decent.  Offers explanations for answers which I like.  But this app needs to be updated for new regulations and needs to be a little closer to sUAS operations as opposed to fixed wing.  Would recommend getting it but be aware that you will need additional study materials to be completely up to date and thorough.

### 3/5 — Good But Questions Don't Mirror FAA Exam

*2021-01-19, version 1.53*

I used this app exclusively as my study guide and, while I did pass on my first attempt, my score was well below my 98% average within the app (l took my exam in January 2021 and was rather unpleasantly surprised to discover virtually none of the app's practice questions appear in the official test.)  l do recommend the app, but only as a study supplement

### 5/5 — Not like the other Prepware

*2020-11-25*

Used the App and passed my test with about 24 hours notice. Figure out how to read sectional charts and those weather reports and you’ll be golden. PS there are diagrams for how to read the charts in the beginning of your appendix books.

### 5/5 — Just get it.  (98.3% on test)

*2020-09-08, version 1.52*

At $5 it’s a pricy app by the usual expectation of most apps being free.  You’re paying $150 or more for your test, just spend the little extra to pass it.  I passed with a 98.3% thanks in part to this app!

### 5/5 — Only $5

*2020-08-16*

Only paid $5 for this app. I studied (because you actually need to study for this test) for two weeks, in between breaks, walks, eating, etc. I passed with an 87. I know the next statement is irrelevant but I’m just throwing it for extra info: after you pass the test, and go home, you need to apply for license but it’s free.

### 5/5 — Excellent Source!

*2020-08-15, version 1.52*

I just took the test and passed with high score   This app was a big help although there were 3 problems that I have never seen. 

No need to spend  $150-300 or expensive mobile app costing $30 $40. 

This app is more than enough.  I mean what is the point of getting 90s or even high 80s?  With Tony’s video and this app, you should be able to pass.  All these drone pilot schools sell their programs by instilling fear.   The sectional, for example, was quite simple although there quite a few   If you understand the weather questions in this app, you will be fine.   Take time and read the problems and you will do fine.  

Thanks to this app!!!

### 5/5 — Don’t second this App!

*2020-07-11, version 1.52*

Just passed my certification! Scored an 85. I used this app, watched some YouTube videos and read through parts of the FAA’s study guide. A lot of the questions I saw on this app were on my test. I couldn’t recommend this app more! Some friends of mine spent hundreds of dollars on online courses and I spent $5 and scored higher on the exam.

### 5/5 — Best Prep App

*2020-06-05*

I purchased this 2 days ago after studying the FAA test prep documents and passed with a 95%. 

Why is this app good?

It is cheap and it has a lot of the related test information within it. It is easy to use and provides explanations from the regulations.

### 5/5 — Thanks guys

*2020-06-01, version 1.52*

This was my primary method of studying with very few supplemental resources.  I took the part 107 and password with a 95%!!!! Couldn’t be more pleased!  Thanks guys!

### 5/5 — Help

*2020-05-08, version 1.52*

This is a great app but my problem is the words to the question and answers have turned the color of the grey background what to I do to correct it.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Did not help

*2026-03-06, version 1.60*

Maybe 7 of these questions were on the actual exam. Would rather buy the book

### 1/5 — Not recommended

*2025-02-17, version 1.60*

Took the FAA part 107 test today and passed, but not thanks to this app. I read a private pilot book front to back and watched several YouTube videos on sectional charts. Not a single question from this app review was on the actual part 107. Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Help! Something’s wrong

*2023-10-13, version 1.56*

I cant find an email or anything. Suddenly this trusty app isnt showing me just remote pilot questions but also i think actual pilot exam questions? It now has questions related to TSA, what runway signs mean what, etc. Please fix this!!!! I loved this app before this glitch.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2021-02-05, version 1.53*

No legends to use for the maps on the studies or tests. Some of the map figures are not matched with the correct maps in the questions.

### 1/5 — Not ready for prime time

*2016-08-31, version 1.42*

Seems hastily put together with a lot of questions that are irrelevant to drone operations.  The explanations are not very good, often just a simple sentence restating the question. Also, there is no way to see how you did on previous exams and nothing to help you learn the material.  I understand that it's pretty cheap compared to other apps, but seems like a large compromise for what you get.

### 2/5 — Fine eccentric for one big problem

*2023-05-29*

Using past Prepware Applications, I’ve had some pretty good results. One of the biggest benefits has been to be able to pick a topic and practice on a few questions chose randomly. The problem with particular app, however, is that it will not let you reduce the number of questions. This means that instead of a bite-size practice of five or 10 questions now and then, you would have to have a 96 question quiz on only one topic. Had I known that, I probably would have tried a different app other than this one. 

Also, there are no flashcards or study materials. but the biggest problem is that you either have to take a full simulated test, or a one topic test including all of the questions in the bank for that topic.

### 2/5 — No Legends?

*2023-04-24*

The “Study” and “Test” questions have figures, but the legends are not included in the figures (at least, not as far as I can tell). Considering the information in the legend is critical to deciphering much of the contents in the Sectional Charts, it seems odd that the legends would not be included. 

I have not taken my official exam yet, and I’m using a number of resources to prep. Thus far, this seems to have accurate and current information. This is the only reason I’ve given it two stars.

### 2/5 — Not Up to Date for 2021

*2021-08-30*

Don’t be fooled into thinking you can memorize these questions and pass the test. Lots of changes have happened that this App does not cover. Questions the FAA are currently asking are not in the question pool here. 
Also needs a Review Missed feature. If you miss a question, then select the right one, it counts it as a correct answer.

### 2/5 — Questions need to be updated!

*2019-06-07, version 1.49*

Do not count on this app to provide you with the full gamut of knowledge to pass the test! The mix of test questions needs to be much heavier on the sectional chart knowledge. There are MANY questions that appeared on the real test that never came up in this app. 

Although I passed, it had more to do with my prior experience as a commercial full scale pilot, not this app.

### 2/5 — Very disappointed

*2017-08-26, version 1.45.2*

I have diligently studied for the past month all of the written material I could find and this App was highly recommended by someone on YouTube. I've used it day and night for a week and a half and the past 3 days have consistently scored 100 on each of the Sectional Studies and 100 on the last 7 test I took!
I just took my FAA exam this afternoon and made an 87! Yes, I passed but only 7 of the questions out of the 314 in the App were on the test! Even the Examiner told me afterward that 3 of the questions that I missed were so totally bazaar that no one knows what the answer is supposed to be and he is a top notch Flight Instructor!!
Since the App said it had updated its questions and explanations on June 28, I expected a much greater percentage to actually be on the exam!

Update: 2 things to add...a few years back I took Ground School and passed my Written Exam after missing only 1 question! I thought that this App had far too many "manned aircraft" type questions but I was totally prepared for any on the Part 107 exam. At least the exam I took yesterday had none of those type questions.

### 5/5 — The Best Resource

*2026-06-15*

It has been awhile since I have passed my Part 107. I did a lot of studying - watched videos, read articles but this app and using it diligently was the best way to prep for the test.  I got a 94%.  

It isn’t the sexiest or the fanciest study app but the content is there.

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2025-05-08, version 1.60*

Used this app for 3 weeks. Passed the exam today!

### 5/5 — Helped me get my license

*2025-05-02, version 1.60*

Ended up with 88% on my test. The questions are very similar but you will see some new ones. They pull from a pool of a thousand questions so it’s kind of expected.

### 5/5 — Great App-Similar to test!

*2024-09-19*

Used this app. Went through all the study questions then took the test in this app 5 times, trying to score in the 80s and 90s on all of them. Took the FAA test this morning and passed with 86%. This app did a great job of prepping me for the test!

### 5/5 — Great Study App

*2022-10-13, version 1.56*

Great mobile app to practice questions on the go. I got a 93 on my 107 after studying for about 10 hours (used other materials too).

### 5/5 — I passed Part 107 with this app

*2022-07-07*

Very grateful with this app. With under 24 hours I was able to crunch as many question for their study guide and helped me a lot with the actually test. Thank you

### 5/5 — Awesome as a complementary to a fully structured course!

*2021-12-01*

WARNING: THIS APP SHOULD BE USEDAS A COMPLEMENTARY TOOL to a real fully structured and up to date course on the part 107!  

I love this app because it gives me a quick access to practicing a few times a week as needed, but do not rely on it for learning all the details and knowledge you need for the test!

See it as an extra help to what you are studying, not the all be all go to app to learn!!

### 5/5 — This is the best app to help you prepare for the part 107 test

*2021-02-24, version 1.53*

I used the ASA Prepware Study guide and The app in 2017 to take the initial test and passed with a 90 and used the app and study guide for my recurrent in 2019 and passed with a 98. Get this app and the study guide and you will pass!

### 5/5 — Great app—helped me pass!

*2021-02-15, version 1.53*

Just passed my part 107 using only this app and free videos on YouTube (drone coach). This app works even better on an iPad if you’ve got one! Finished my test in an hour and got an 87% ✅

### 5/5 — Great App for 107 test

*2020-12-01, version 1.53*

I just studied with this app and the suggested study materials from FAA.  Took the test today and passed with an 83%.  Questions are identical to the test.  I highly recommend this app.
