Overpriced though but you gotta do what you gotta do. ### 5/5 — Really fun *2025-07-03* Even better if I wouldn’t have to pay to unlock everything!!! ### 5/5 — Really helpful!! *2025-06-28, version 5.9.7* This app is amazing. It helped me a lot with my PTE exam. I got an overall of 86, with 90 Listening and Writing. What truly wonderful about this app is that it also provides you with correct answers in all sections, with help me a lot with the exam format. Thank you so much!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Good for studying while working *2025-06-23, version 5.9.7* Studying in break is powerful. It is possible by using this app. ### 5/5 — Easy access and Great app *2025-06-11, version 5.9.7* I use it to practice everyday, such a great app ### 3/5 — OK but not 100% reflective of final test *2025-06-10, version 5.9.7* If you want to get to know what the questions on the PTE Core test will be like, this isn’t a bad place to start BUT a lot of these are far more complicated than the final test - for example the listen and repeat questions are far simpler on the final test. The app also has issues with its own English with a number of the summary exercises written in English as if written by a machine…oh wait! And that is part of the problem, the app relies too heavily on its own AI firstly for question generation and the occasional gobbledygook it spits out and secondly for scoring, which is MUCH harsher than the actual test. My final gripe is the cost of additional full mock tests - you get one free on paid tier then each one costs £13, which is extortionate! In its favour, the app gives you a good idea of structure of the test and their support was quick to reply to emails. ### 5/5 — Good *2025-05-09, version 5.9.7* This app is really cool ### 5/5 — Great *2025-04-21, version 5.9.7* The best ### 4/5 — Good 👍 *2025-04-17, version 5.9.7* It’s amazing for preparing Pte 🌹❤️ ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2025-04-16, version 5.9.7* Amazing app to prepare for PTE.

Contacted the support but no one answered. Checking out the comments and realise that’s the same for everyone. Money wasted. ### 1/5 — Freezes every few minutes *2025-08-08, version 5.9.7* I downloaded the app this morning and tried to use it for writing and every few minutes the app just freezes then closes. I tried to write on my notes then copy and paste but that did not help at all. ### 1/5 — There not professional *2025-07-16, version 5.9.7* Don’t waste your time and money with PTE they are not professional , they don’t know what they’re doing and they have the worst customer service ### 1/5 — So disappointed *2025-05-05, version 5.9.7* The subscription purchased for the app doesn’t work in the browser. Customer support isn’t responding — I’ve written twice. The app is buggy and no one seems to care. User acquisition seems to rely on advertising. ### 1/5 — I avail silver 90 days *2025-01-12, version 5.9.1* Why its not working I cant open some of the question only few, the one I can open in free trial I already avail the silver 3 months but its not working ### 1/5 — Scoring is higher than real test *2025-01-08, version 5.9.1* App has incorrect scoring for speaking and writing guidelines. Better to try alternatives and do not waste time ### 1/5 — Subscription *2023-11-27* I’ve been paid 1 month premium and have not been able to access to the questions as well as mock test, reading the previous reviews make me worry that I’ve waste my money :). Trying to reach out and send email to ask for help but it has not been reply. My test is next week and Im afraid that they would reply me after I finish my test like how the other previous users have experienced. ### 1/5 — Good *2023-08-30, version 5.7.3* Good ### 1/5 — stay away *2022-10-10, version 5.5.0* This app is garbage, not worth your money. ai is just dumb on their website as well. ### 1/5 — This is zero rating app but showing too much . I have ever downloaded *2020-12-18* Don’t waste your money on this if you don’t have desktop or laptop. I have spent $80 on it and it doesn’t work with any iPhone or iPad . They don’t tell you this before any subscription and even don’t reply anything back even after 1 week or more . I have tried to contact with them more than a week I think and get nothing back from them . Not even one reply . I have them pics to that they can fix the problem but result nothing. So if you guys don’t have pc don’t even try to get subscription of this app . However, you can get any other applications to install instead installing this one where no refund , even no reply after we got subscribed. **Developer response:** Hello, Sorry for the delay. We have replied to both your emails (you sent emails from 2 different addresses). You cannot use your iPad to practice Speaking exercises on the website. You should use the mobile app on your iPad and iPhone for full compatibility.
