Drivers Ed is free to download; The Learners Test 2026 costs $4.99 up front. The Learners Test 2026 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Drivers Ed sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

The Learners Test 2026 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drivers Ed has 1.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of The Learners Test 2026's written reviews are positive against 75% of Drivers Ed's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

The Learners Test 2026 ships an update every 13 months, Drivers Ed every 20 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
