Great Test Prep
Passed the nclex with 85 questions!! The test looked a lot like this app it helped immensely. Thank you Uworld.
Great product, horrible app
Update July 2026: An update fixed this issue completely! The last 4+ weeks the app has been flawless. Props to the developers for addressing whatever the issue was!
Previous review: App is borderline useless. Amazing product, works perfectly on a computer or web browser. But this App works less than 1 in 10 attempts. Constant “authenticate” errors, or the wheel just spins when I go to log in and never advances. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times trying to fix the issue, with absolutely no improvement. This is NOT a negative review of Uworld test bank and study materials, which are 5/5 phenomenal. But the app needs A LOT of work.

Login issues
After the update I issues login in or using FaceId. Sometimes no matter what i try i can not get in via app but works fine online. Please fix this i use this during downtime to get studying done.
Complete Disaster!
I even bought a new iPad thinking something was wrong with my old one, but turns out it was always the app! It has so many bugs, glitches, malfunctions! The app turns off automatically and gets hung up often. Sometimes I am doing a test and it crashes midway then I lose all my progress! It has been like that for several months now! An app that is so widely used by people all over the world and they are doing nothing to fix it is unacceptable! I draw attention of the team that deals with this!

Crashes a lot on iPad
The app works fine on my iPhone but shows “error authenticating” every time i use it on my iPad. I have to delete it and then install it again everyday. Please fix this. I never had this issue before it has started since last 2 weeks
Unable to login
I am very disappointed that this application does not let me log into my account. I use my username and password that works on my computer then the app shows an error message saying that the account details do not match.
Bug fix needed
It doesn’t let me in even if my password is correct - shows “unknown” error. Tried reinstalling the app but same. Website login works fine.
Login Errors
The app is excellent for exam prep, as long as it lets you log in. I have had significant trouble logging into the app for several weeks. Often it just spins and spins and doesn’t work. Very frustrating when you have limited time between seeing patients, rounding, or doing other tasks and trying to slip some studying in. Needs significant improvement in that aspect.

Poorly designed app with frustrating security features
The app is incredibly frustrating to use. It’ll routinely log users out (presumably for “security” reasons), forget previously answered questions (requiring users to re-answer), and is very unintuitive for navigation (you have to through like four to five different windows just to reach your qbank).

Good tool
Amazing app but just a kind request to developers. It breaks my continuity just doing 40 questions at a time. Can you please increase the number of questions I can do in a block. Or don’t put a definitive number on it. It’s quite frustrating
Authentication problem
Everytime I am facing problem to enter. It says authentication problem.
App will not load
Every time I try to sign in, it just keeps buffering and nothing ever shows up. They made us (PAs) move to this app and it even doesn’t work.

two suggestions
1. please add a option to enlarge flash cards text size. It’s super tiny even on ipad.
2. On iphone, it keeps showing ‘error authenticating users’, I have to try to login multiple times, after 4-5 tries it will work. On computer web no such problem.

Program lags too much
I am trying to study then suddenly the app stops responding and lags
Not working properly
Since 2 weeks this app isn’t working properly nor it is smooth to use like before, idk what update u guys did and this is happening but please fix it!! And whenever I try to log in, it shows “error authentication” and doesn’t just let me log in sometimes
Not Practical for Efficient Studying
The app is focused on everything except being practical for efficient studying. UWorld Medical users need to be able to do questions on the go, review them thoroughly, highlight key information, and move through study sessions without unnecessary interruptions.
The app interface is frustrating, poorly designed, slow, glitchy, and not user-friendly. It is so irritating to use that it makes you not want to use the app, even though we absolutely need to.
Highlighting is one of the biggest problems. It should be fast, simple, seamless, and easy to control, but instead it interrupts both answering questions and reviewing them. It glitches with every highlight, wastes time, and the annotation pop-up continues to appear even when annotation is turned off in settings. Annotation is already listed as a separate toggle, so there is no reason for that pop-up to appear while highlighting.
The multi-color highlight option makes it worse by blocking the content and making highlighting nearly unusable. Double-tapping or selecting text both glitch. Highlighting should be seamless and should not require extra clicks just to mark important information.
UWorld Medical users do not have time for this. In 2026, there is no excuse for ongoing glitches or an app interface that slows users down. Every update barely fixes one issue but never fails to create another. Before this, the issue was text not fitting properly on the screen.
Please focus less on screenshots and preventing content repurposing, and more on making the app practical, smooth, fast, reliable, and efficient for paying users. For the price we pay for UWorld Medical, the app should be nothing less than perfection.

Old App was much better, this one is not working
Old app forced me to download this one which is not working and wont allow me to sign in.
Add annotation option
Can we please add an option to remove adding an annotation option like adding to notebook option so double clicking the text only highlights it
The app doesn’t have
The same categories as the web version. It only includes the step 1-3 for the USMLE but not the other stuff like for the PAs and NPs etc. would have been nice to have this for on the go especially for $300+
