The Official DVSA Highway Code User Reviews

Top reviews

Essential reading for road users

Definitely required reading for ALL road users, particularly drivers and riders of motorised vehicles. Highly recommended.

Mr Mohammed Afzal

The is app are you good one three weeks use I’m pass theory test

Useful app but a bit flawed

This is a useful app that basically works well and certainly helped me learn the Highway Code content, but it does have a bit of a problem where having done quite a lot of quick quizzes, it ended up always loading the same quiz over and over.
The other niggles is that when you review quiz answers and go back to the list of answers, it always goes to the top of the list and not the one you clicked on.

Frustrating

Been using this app (official DVSA highway code) for some years to keep upto date with highway code. Some weeks ago noticed that quick quiz when about 50% of total questions completed, the same questions repeated. Was advised to frustratingly delete quiz history which I did. Have now once again completed around 50% and problem still there.

Perfect

Good

Could be a little more interactive

There’s a lot of reading
And few images
I think there should be more images or moving diagrams to show a visual to what’s being explained for those who are completely new to driving. I had to search online for video explanations of several examples offered on the app, especially around navigating roundabouts
I’ve bought the entire collection so I’ll be adding to this review as I progress through the app

Frustrating

Overall good, but when taking quizzes some questions are specific to certain classes of vehicle HGV etc, which is frustrating if you do not need to know those types of vehicle answers. Also some questions are ambiguous and wording varies from highway code(a word can make significant difference). I'm retired police advanced driver .

Too many incorrect answers

A good app, let down by incorrect answers, I have noted 3 already and have answered less than 25% of quiz.

Great App

This is a great app, really like the quick test function.

Helpful quizzes

I’m doing the advanced riding and found this app really helpful. I can quiz myself and also learn the rules for the Highway Code.

Do NOT Purchase

The ‘Theory Test’ app contains everything this app has and much more. Do not waste your money!

Rubbish update

Don’t now have the 4 options (‘Learn’; Search; Take a quiz and Know your Traffic signs) when I open the app. Only option now is to read the whole HC or do a quiz on the whole thing. Absolute rubbish. Can I have my money back please?

Help me to under road signs

This app helps me a lot to understand road signs.

Whoever created this app needs to go to rehab

Hard drugs have is the only explanation for an app being this bad.

If you want to learn road markings, you have to scroll to that section, then find the sub section, then browse the images, then click on a link to go another section of the app entirely that explains the rules relevant to that marking, then you have to navigate manually back the contents, then back to road markings, then back to your subsection, then scroll back to where you were at in that subsection to look at the next one, only to repeat the insanity again.

W in the actual F is this supposed to be?

Good

I have used this application to study and practice my exam. I have not given exam yet but I’m very hopeful that I’ll be able to pass by studying and practising through this application.

Response from developer

Thank you for your 5 star review! We're pleased to hear that you have enjoyed using our app! Good luck for your test! Best wishes, TSO

Almost useless search facility

As the title says search facility is almost useless.

Amazing app!

I 100% recommended!

Very, very helpful.

If your trying to study for your theory test, there is no better option to help you pass than this app.

Response from developer

Thanks for the 5-star review! We're glad you enjoyed using our official DVSA app. Many thanks, TSO

Not designed for visual learners or people with Learning Difficulties

Whilst there are a lot of helpful things in this, considering they have been producing learning tools for driving for years I’m surprised they haven’t developed anything for people who have learning difficulties like myself. There could be an option to have a different coloured background but they could also incorporate images and/or videos of what they are describing.
