## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Won’t even let me login

*2025-10-01*

App won’t go past the login screen keeps looping back to the sign in screen.

### 1/5 — I can’t even log on to the app :(

*2025-07-31*

Just bought the course and installed this app. However, it kept crashing. Not looking good so far :(

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-06-02*

It won’t allow me to even sign in

### 1/5 — Do not choose Surgent!!!!!

*2024-07-12*

If you are looking at this for the CPA exam, go a different route. This will not prepare you to take the CPA Exam. The app never works and the customer service is horrible

### 1/5 — This app is not what it should be

*2024-04-04*

For a course you pay thousands for they should really put some effort into this app. The questions do not even format correctly to your phone where half the explanation does not show after answering, it is very limited to what you can do from it and it does not receive updates regularly. This needs a lot of attention to be on par with other study apps.

### 1/5 — Limited app at best

*2023-11-13*

The app crashes on me nonstop. Max study time is 10 question. If I have an hour to kill I should be able to choose a 50 question study session 🤷🏽‍♀️ the website version allows you to pick certain sections but the app does not. The flash cards are nice.

### 1/5 — Horrible layout

*2023-02-25*

The practice questions videos are just some reading them out pound they aren’t written out so it’s so hard to follow along when I’m trying to commute and that’s the most of the time I have for studying. The app has failed and had errors 3 times and I’ve had it for an hour. I’m calling tomorrow to see if I can get a refund I didn’t see a free trial and this just isn’t working for me at all!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-10-05*

I cannot login after the update

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2022-05-23*

It keeps saying i need to activate account but i already did. Cant even log in. Needs to be updated and bugs need to be fixed. Or just dont download and just use website.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-02-01*

Please update

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Decent, but not all encompassing

*2023-08-22*

Surgent is a decent app for on the go review. It has the multiple choice study questions which is very nice. The study sessions are not as customizable as the desktop version, however it serves its purpose. It does not have a copy of the textbook, but because it is a pdf, I can just send it to my email etc and have it on whatever device I am using.

### 2/5 — Videos

*2024-02-04*

Videos don’t work

### 2/5 — Need More Features

*2022-02-04*

The flash cards are nice but the app should have the book and questions.
