A Disciplined Approach to Part 107
I used the "Remote Pilot Ground School" app to prepare for my FAA Part 107 exam and passed with a 95%. After serving in the SEAL Teams, I appreciate training that prioritizes actual comprehension over just passing a test. Unlike many prep tools that simply have you memorize practice questions, this app requires you to learn the underlying subject matter. The material is challenging, but the way it reinforces each topic ensures the knowledge actually sticks. My thanks to FlightReady.net for their support and for providing a solid educational foundation.

Excellent Course, Passed First Try
Beyond impressed with the quality of this course. I never really leave App Store Reviews, but I wanted to take the time here because this course made my Part 107 prep beyond straightforward. I’m also happy that the course will be kept updated, since it’s easy to keep up to date with their flashcards and whatnot.
I spent about 4 days working through the content for about 2-3 hrs per day, plus a day to review and take practice tests. Passed with a 93%. I’d say that a week of steady commitment would be both comfortable and produce similar results.
Also a note to other hopefuls, the other apps I downloaded (won’t mention them here), had numerous inaccuracies and vague questions which didn’t reflect either the test format or content. This app, on the other hand, mirrored it near-exactly. And, while there were some frustrating questions that it asks you, the same is true for the actual exam. I know some people prefer to save money by simply using free online resources, but the cost of the course is equal to the cost of the exam, and the developers will offer a refund if you pass the course reqs and fail the exam. So, I don’t really feel as though it was all that uneconomical.

Does Not Justify the Price — Be Cautious
I want to warn potential buyers about the misleading pricing strategy of the Remote Pilot app. After purchasing a $49 subscription, I expected full access to the drone pilot exam preparation materials. However, what I received was merely a collection of links to public files, which was not what I anticipated. To make matters worse, I found out later that to access the actual practice tests, I needed to pay an additional $89. This is highly deceptive and unfair. The subscription does not provide unique content and misleads users about what they are paying for. In the end, I found another app offering the same materials and practice tests for only $10, with far better value and organization.

Best study guide
While preparing for part 107 exam I discovered this app. Weather questions are my weakness! This app nails it with explaining right/wrong answers and Visual examples!!! Download this app!
False 7 Day Free Trial
They say they give you a 7 day free trial but they locked all the other sections than the first one I completed. Why? My guess is there is not even 7 days worth of content and if they did not lock the others you could complete them all in the free trial period and realize how easy it is to study with the free FAA Study Guide. 100 dollars is a steep price for an app that won’t even keep a basic promise of a free trial

Frustrating to use on iPhone
I can tell that these folks put a lot of time and energy into the app, but it’s cumbersome and frustrating to use on a cell phone screen.
It’s a shame, really, cause it seems well designed otherwise.
It’s great that they supply all of the supplemental figures with each question, but I found myself constantly scrolling up and down, and having to repeatedly open and close the supplemental diagrams to reread the questions and apply my knowledge toward choosing the right answer.
This could easily be solved if the developer simply supplied the corresponding figure number from the “Airmen Knowledge Testing Supplement” than is easily purchased or downloadable as a stand alone PDF from many sources.
Maybe this works more fluidly on an IPad, but I don’t own one.

Passed with a 98%
I used several apps and websites. I read through the FAA’s PDF, but mostly I used this app. The questions on the app are challenging, but they prepare you for the test. When you miss a question, review, and take time to read the explanations.
Passed Part 107—95%
Really enjoyed the app, prepared me well for the exam. I studied my butt off but the app made it so easy for me to retain & fully understand all the information. There were a few what the questions on the test, but if you prepare well odds are you will do well.
Thanks for the great app and helping me pass the test with flying colors!

Great help
I’m entirely new to drones, I haven’t used any other study helps before this app. The app has been great for me as an entry level learner! There are a few things I wish they would talk more about (specifically; I wish there was more material to help me understand the weather chapters.) but considering the frequent updates to the app, they are clearly on top of making this app the best part 107 knowledge test prep app and I’m sure more is to come! I feel that I’ll be ready to take the test after having finished this course! Thanks guys!
*UPDATE*
I passed with a 92%!!! Thank you!

Passed with an 87
I had zero drone experience but was tasked with getting certified. I exclusively used this app. I did each module. I followed it completely through. I never got lower than a 77 on any module. I scored in the 90s on both stage checks. I did EVERY question and got an 87%. I then did a few days of practice tests never scoring lower than 90. I took my test and received an 87.

Used only this app & scored 95% first try
I have no flight background, and this is the only study method I used. I used the app’s built-in lesson timer, completed all initial course requirements, and “graduated” from the initial course. Went through all the questions a few more times until I had mastered them, and had scored a cumulative average of 98% the night before my Part 107 exam, pulled up by straight 100% exams at the end. Sat for the real deal Part 107 and got 57 correct out of 60 (95%) on my first try. Highly recommended. (The material at first is pretty boring (not the app’s or developer’s fault), so keep grinding through and you’ll succeed if you work through the app’s “graduation.”) Test was only $96 at PSI, so including this app, the entire certification process was under $200.

Excellent
Excellent app beyond expectation. Well worth the money paid. I am or I feel assured I will pass the FAA UAS/UAV Pilot exam
Excellent Training
First off this is a cost effective and very informative training app. I was impressed at the ease of use and only went through it and a practice test one time before getting a 90% on my first try at the FAA Exam. I also want to include that I really respect that the developer of this app doesn’t put up with whiny reviews and when I read their response to a negative review that obviously showed the incompetence of the user and not the fault of the app or developer, they told the guy to knock it off. It’s refreshing to see someone with a little salt in their response. I immediately paid full price and downloaded the app because I want to support people that stand up for what’s right. I have also recommended this to several friends who will he getting it to study for their future business endeavors. Thanks guys!

You will pay too much and get very little in return
I am a smart guy (I studied and passed my HAM radio license in a week and missed ZERO questions). I find the lack of explanations intolerable as they are too vague and don’t really help you improve. The material is not meant for a layperson. I find myself getting very frustrated every time I try to use the app. To be honest I am about ready to give up getting my part 107 because of this experience.
I would love to be able to wipe out all progress in a section and start over but there appears to be no way to do that.
A lot of the questions are NOT covered by the material you just went through.
I can’t believe I wasted so much money on this app.

Almost great
This app is almost great because it’s thorough, comprehensive and allows you to study and take the test exams. The really bad part is that you’re only allowed to study and take these test questions ONLY once. Once you complete the study and exams you cannot go back and through the materials and take the pop up quizzes and exams anymore. It does have some mini questions but no more full exams. This I gave it three stars for that reason alone. You’d have to buy the App again. I feel one you buy a product you should be able to use it forever like a book.

Effective & Relatively Inexpensive
I just passed the FAA Part 107 Exam today with a 92 primarily using this app for my training. It works if you follow the course. In fact, the last practice test I took in the app before taking the actual exam was scored with a 92 as well! At first I found the app’s teaching style frustrating because they give you progress test questions after teaching a couple of items in each section followed by a longer section review quiz. Those progress questions sometimes would ask about things they didn’t teach yet! As I went along I found that getting one of those wrong and then reading the explanations was an effective method of forcing you to remember important items. There’s a lot of information to ingest, and it takes at least 10 hours to get through the core of the learning materials. The app highlights your weak areas as you go, and I used that information to search for YouTube videos and articles covering those areas to help improve my understanding. The app also updates regularly so you’ll never feel like you’re getting out of date information in regards to what’s on the test.

Awesome tool
Do not waste your time on more expensive ground schools. I used this app exclusively to educate myself for the test, and smoked it!!! For the cost of this program, you are practically stealing it!!!
Update.
Whole everything has crashed. In my previous review I was basically called a liar because the app worked for others. And in my review I even admitted it was just not for me the way it was structured.
Then told I was offered a return...where? I applied through the Apple app...and was told no refunds when I applied for one did not receive an email or an auto refund.
Now with the new update the app (while in my incredibly short amount of free time) now doesn’t work or recognizing my account. Sorry. Even after all that happened prior. I really wanted to give this app a fair shake. Got through weather because you can’t skip around. And now everything appears to be gone.
I’m extremely happy for the pilots that used this program and was able gain knowledge. For half the cost of taking the test I expected more.

Awesome learning App
I passed my FAA Part 107 on the first attempt with an 87. I learned so much info from this course. A person lead prep is very expensive. This app is just as effective as a person lead course and more affordable. I absolutely recommend their products.
I passed first try !!!!!
Using only this app ,highly recommended
