Prepware Instrument Pilot App Reviews

Good study questions but a save button that actually has a resume button would be nice. And a spot where it shows the questions that needs the most help on.

The app has good study questions and is a very useful study aid. However, there are two issues. First, the Save feature doesnt work. If you are just working the questions in study mode and you want to save your answers so far and return later, choosing "Save and Exit" apparently does nothing. When you return, any answers you had entered are lost. Same is true if you choose to Grade in the study mode. It would be very useful to work the problems, then come back and review the ones you missed, but here is no way to do this. Second problem: the figures are a bit low-res. not an issue for the instrument interpretation questions, but on the chart and weather maps, which are already disgraceful in quality in the official FAA supplement, sometimes important information is illegible.

Nice to have this info in an app, but the app needs work. One big issue is saving. The "save and exit" button needs to be used every time or else the resume button disappears next time i start the app. Suggestion would be to autosave and have a clear progress button.

While the app might not have the fancy features of its competitors (videos, fancy indicators and buttons), for its price it has an excellent value as it does include an updated database of the questions in an easy to study format. Im studying for my IFR and already have books and videos, was missing an easy cheap and reliable app for my iPad with just questions.

I used this for instrument and CFII. I was getting 96-98 consistently on the practice test and each written exam I only scored 83...on both exams. I have used other test prep in the past and scored in the high 90s each time. I would recommend using a different product.

This app allows marking of questions (presumably so you can review them later). The problem is the marking is removed when you return to the main menu, which makes the marking pointless. Another problem is wrong answers are not recorded, so there is no way to go back and review answers. In sum, not worth the price.

We need to be able to save questions across study sessions. How about a study session where I can use marked questions to make up that study session? I need a way to focus on the areas and questions I keep missing instead of just shotgunning all of the questions back at me each time I start up a study session!

I have had no problems with any IPad version of prepware. Ive gotten over 90% on all of my FAA written tests.
