About

My DMV Test

Features
Read full description

Every state writes its own permit test. My DMV Test matches yours: the same number of questions, the same pass mark, the same section rules — for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. EXAM SIMULATOR IN YOUR STATE'S FORMAT • California asks 46 questions and needs 38 correct. Texas asks 30 and needs 21. New York asks 20, and you must get at least 2 of the 4 road sign questions right. The simulator follows those rules exactly. • Georgia, Illinois, Indiana and Virginia run two-part tests — signs and rules, each with its own cut-off. Both parts are scored separately, as they are on the day. • The test ends the moment the result is decided, just like the real one. 1,400 QUESTIONS, 620 ROAD SIGNS • Questions written from the rules every state handbook teaches • Facts for your own state: permit and road-test ages to the month, supervised hours, speed limits by road type, alcohol limits, phone law, seat belt enforcement, night and passenger restrictions • 620 official MUTCD signs in vector, sharp at any zoom — never a cropped picture with the answer cut off • Search any sign by name or by code: R1-1, W3-3, S1-1 • Sign questions explain what each sign means and what to do EVERY ANSWER SHOWS ITS SOURCE Most apps just tell you the answer. This one shows where the rule comes from — the MUTCD section for a sign, the law table for a state fact, a link straight to your DMV's own handbook. Where we could verify a state's test format against its published handbook, the app quotes the sentence. Where a state does not publish it, the app says so instead of pretending. STUDY THAT ADAPTS • Readiness score from 0 to 100, and the reasons behind it • Weak Spots picks the questions you are most likely to miss • Mistakes bank replays what you got wrong until it sticks • Spaced repetition brings a question back exactly when you are about to forget it • Timed drill: 30 seconds per question. Sudden Death: one mistake and the run is over SUPERVISED DRIVING LOG • Log day and night hours against your state's requirement, and edit any drive later • Capture your supervising driver's signature • Export a printable PDF record • Set your permit date to see the earliest date you are eligible for the road test WORKS WITHOUT A SIGNAL Everything is on your iPhone: no account, no ads, no data leaving the device. Study in the DMV waiting room where the signal dies. ALSO ON YOUR WRIST AND LOCK SCREEN • Apple Watch app with every sign the test asks about and 10-question rounds • Live Activity shows your progress and mistakes left during an exam • Home screen widget with your readiness score and countdown to test day FREE, AND HONEST ABOUT IT The free plan is genuinely usable: practice by topic with no daily limit, the entire sign catalogue, and one full mock exam a day. No lesson counters, no ads. Pro adds unlimited mock exams, weak-spot training, timed and sudden-death drills, and PDF export of your drive log. Readiness, statistics, the mistakes bank and the drive log itself stay free. PLANS, PRICES AND DURATIONS • Pro Weekly — $4.99, auto-renewable subscription with a 1-week duration • Pro Yearly — $29.99, auto-renewable subscription with a 1-year duration, after a 3-day free trial • Pro Lifetime — $59.99, one-time payment (not a subscription) Prices shown are those of the US App Store; the price in your store is displayed at the time of purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple account when you confirm the purchase. A subscription renews automatically at the same price and for the same duration unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings. My DMV Test is a study aid. It is not affiliated with any DMV, and passing here does not guarantee passing the real exam — your state's handbook is the authority.
