### 1/5 — This sucks

*2026-05-24, version 1.14.0*

I hate this it sucks it is the worst  app on my iPad I was using it and then I had a stroke

### 1/5 — Just what I wanted

*2025-10-14, version 1.14.0*

TestNav is insane. Thanks to it, I basically leveled up in life so much that I’m ready to hop on a rocket and visit Pluto. It’s like it didn’t just prepare me for school—it prepared me for space travel, intergalactic domination, and probably negotiating with aliens. Five stars, obviously.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2025-04-18*

Bad app

### 1/5 — I hate myself

*2024-10-09, version 1.13.0*

It’s not that this app is bad but taking the tests made me want to kms

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-09-16, version 1.13.0*

This app is so trash that my mom even disapproves

### 1/5 — Super good

*2024-09-16, version 1.13.0*

Helped me with cancer,pulmonia,diabetes and dyslexia and children love me

### 4/5 — Brightness

*2024-02-04, version 1.12.6*

Every thing is good, it’s just that can their be a way to lower the brightness down? That would help a lot!

### 1/5 — Permission Required

*2023-10-02, version 1.12.5*

We have several iPads with TestNav but some will throw an error message stating it needs permission for speech, mic, etc. When you hit go to settings all those options are selected but we cannot use it. It’s happening only on a few of the iPads but not all. I have attempted to uninstall, change content and privacy settings and more with the same results.

### 3/5 — Accessibility needs to be improved

*2023-03-28, version 1.11.1*

I give this 3 stars for just being available for iPad, but the accessibility needs to be inproved, like an actual Dark Mode or allowing me to access my Accessibility Shortcuts menu during testing.  I understand the wanting to block all ways of cheating, but not allowing me to adjust my device brightness, enable or disable inverted colors, zoom, or VoiceOver is very very annoying and frustrating.

### 3/5 — Hai

*2023-02-13, version 1.11.1*

Giving it a mixed rating so I can be the only person having given it this rating
