### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2022-12-27, version 2.0*

Has every question word for word

### 5/5 — 100% Recommend If You Want To Get Your Learners Permit

*2022-04-30, version 2.0*

If you need something to study to get a learners permit, then I highly, highly recommend download the app and using the Driver’s Study Guide that is in the Manuals & Practice Exams. The questions & answers are equivalent to what you’re going to see when you take the test & this app helped me not only passed the test first try but also get 100% on both the traffic sign, signals and pavement marking questions and general knowledge sections of the test. If it wasn’t for this app, I would have failed the learners permit test & would be struggling to study for it. I’m not sure how well the other features of the app function but I highly recommend using Driver’s Study Guide that is in the Manuals & Practice Exams if you want to get a learners permit.

### 5/5 — Very Handy For Learners

*2021-02-10, version 2.0*

All the questions are word for word in the real exam. If you nail the all the practice questions, you’ll be fine. I 100% recommend this app for people trying to get their learners in the state of Virginia.

### 5/5 — Passed Permit Test: Perfect Score

*2020-12-02, version 2.0*

This app really helped me pass my permit test. I got a perfect score over all. Definitely recommend this app for people looking to study for their permit or driving test in Virginia!

### 4/5 — Error

*2020-10-13, version 2.0*

My app doesn’t open and says there is not internet connection, even though my phone is connected to the internet.

### 3/5 — Annoying UX, requires multiple logins.

*2020-01-27, version 2.0*

You login with your SS# and DOB, but you’re required to do it again and again (UX design needs work). Just as I was starting to accomplish something I tapped a “back” arrow and it logged me out, took me to the home screen. Where you have to login all over again. And again.

### 5/5 — Driving license

*2019-07-20, version 2.0*

This is a good app to get yours l’s the same question that are on here is on the test. I got all my questions right just do the question repeatedly and you will pass good luck.

### 5/5 — Word for word

*2019-05-20, version 2.0*

I got a 100 after taking all the tests twice. They are short, easy and EXACTLY what the questions are at the dmv. I took mine in Virginia Beach but I’m assuming they’re the same everywhere in Virginia Beach. Super helpful might’ve failed without it.

### 5/5 — Helped me pass the permit test!

*2018-10-02, version 2.0*

Best app i’ve ever used, so glad this app is a thing! I got to choose what i wanted to be test on ex. (practice sign test, practice road skills test etc.) amazing app

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — DMV sucks

*2026-01-26, version 2.0*

You can’t even view your temporary registration.

### 1/5 — I don’t wanna learn how to drive.

*2024-09-15, version 2.0*

I don’t wanna die in car crash cuz some of you hooligans don’t know how to drive. If you see on the news of a car crash and someone dying it’s probably me. Whoever invented cars like little kids

### 1/5 — App is horrible

*2023-01-30, version 2.0*

This app is terrible, none of the signs that appeared on the test were on the app and even after studying this app, the road sign section specifically, I didn’t know half of what was on the test

### 1/5 — Won’t process title renewal

*2021-11-20, version 2.0*

Freezes after I submit yes to pay by credit card.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2020-08-08, version 2.0*

This app is trash they should start working of fixing to don’t make people to go to the DMV

### 1/5 — What’s the point?

*2020-02-04, version 2.0*

If you know how to use a browser, why on earth would you use this app and shrink the usable screen size?  If there’s no session persistence or storing of credentials on the phone, there’s no need for an app.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2018-11-27, version 2.0*

Locks up all the time, when it does work it’s very slow.  Day or night so traffic doesn’t seem to affect it.  VA DMV is slow in real life and this app matches their performance.

### 1/5 — Won’t process transactions.

*2018-09-24, version 2.0*

When press process tab app freezes. Useless.

### 1/5 — App stinks

*2018-08-01, version 2.0*

It is very sketchy, I panicked the whole time. Takes your card info and just sits there.

### 1/5 — DMV app

*2018-06-25, version 2.0*

Worthless. Sick app.

### 5/5 — 10/10 use if trying to get permit

*2025-11-10, version 2.0*

I got my permit around a year and a month back and realized that i didn’t write a review for this, the app legit has the same questions, same pictures, word for word, as the actual dmv permit test, all I did was study for around a week and i first tried my permit test with a 40/40 so if you’re looking to get your permit just use this

### 5/5 — love it!

*2025-09-22, version 2.0*

I passed my test 29/30 and 10/10 🙏🏼

### 5/5 — Helps Significantly on Permit Test

*2025-07-28, version 2.0*

For anyone taking the permit test, I recommend this app. Typically I dont write reviews, but this helped me pass with 100%. The questions on the manual are the EXACT SAME on the permit test itself!!! Same answer choices and everything. If you study this well its basically a guaranteed pass!

### 5/5 — Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Amazing study tool!

*2025-03-19, version 2.0*

I used this app to study for my learners permit test. I did all the practice quizzes for each section, and passed my permit test! Practice questions are the same exact ones on the test, highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Guarantee Pass

*2025-02-27, version 2.0*

Was incredibly helpful, used daily before test and passed with no issues whatsoever! Recommend you use this if you want to improve prior to testing.

### 5/5 — Passed First try

*2024-11-29, version 2.0*

My friend told me to download this app 2 years ago (i was 15/16) and it has helped me to get my permit. Pass ur signs that should be really easy then when you take ur test u can only miss 6 so be careful. But this has helped; im 19 now turn 20 next year 😝

### 5/5 — Helped me pass!!

*2024-09-17, version 2.0*

I was really nervous taking my test for the 3rd time, so this app really helped. Questions are identical to the real test.
