Did not help

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

Excellent!

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

Helped me get my license

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.

Not recommended

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.

Problem #1141

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.

Great App-Similar to test!

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!

Help! Something’s wrong

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.

Fine eccentric for one big problem

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.

No Legends?

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.

Great Study App

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).

Good test, but doesn’t explain incorrect answers

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.

I passed Part 107 with this app

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

Needs updating

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.

Awesome as a complementary to a fully structured course!

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!!

Not Up to Date for 2021

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.

Helpful but needs to be updated

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.

This is the best app to help you prepare for the part 107 test

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!

Great app—helped me pass!

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% ✅

Not reliable

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.

Good But Questions Don't Mirror FAA Exam

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
