DMV Practice Test Genie for Negative User Reviews

✓ Waste of time and hope.This app is a complete waste of everything. I memorized 200 questions and all of the signs for what, for 5% of it to be in the actual test? I spent so much time doing and redoing the tests making sure i was able to ace all of them in a row, and not even half of the actual test had these questions, what was i taught, nothing. The fact that you even have to pay for some features as well is even worse. I failed the test of course, 4 times. Why? Why did i keep retrying of the course of 2 months? because i had hope in this app, i hoped that this app would actually teach me something. No. Learning all this took much longer than reading the whole book, and yet the book managed to cover the entire test... Dont waste your time on this, even if you select you state, or a different one the result stays the same, you learn little to none where it counts..My5thTimeComplaingVersion: 8.2.1

✓ Glitch in Final Test SimulatorI am using this app to help my teenager study for their Driver’s Permit. First of all, it says that you can family share however when I purchased the lifetime membership, it only applied it to one of my devices so my kid has to use my ipad to study instead of their own phone - simple inconvenience. When doing the final exam simulator, there are supposed to be 3 exams, and there are. However, it will only log that my kid took 1 exam and this is frustrating to her as she does not see her success rate go up nor her likelihood of passing go up. After taking the 3 practice exams, if you hit “next test” (even though it says you’re still on test 1) it just cycles out of the exam test prep. We will find out in a few days if this app actually helped. She has failed by 1-2 questions on each of her prior attempts to pass the written test. I feel she is more prepared this time around but only time will tell..Mom2PnKVersion: 7.1

✓ Don’t trust the percentageGood to study the percentages are dumb I passed with one mistake when it told be I had a 30% chance.18733):!;78,$:$;8,$!,!,Version: 8.2.7

✓ Difficult to useThe app interface is super confusing. The easy and hard mode format doesn't reflect the actual test. Lots of ads, and every time you finished a test, or try to go to another tab, it forces you to watch an ad, which becomes super annoying after a few tests. The organization of content is confusing as well, and mistakes are found in multiple tests. Not recommended..BBHamVersion: 4.0.3

✓ Can't use in skClass 4 questions not from sk.哦哦哦如来神掌Version: 8.1.1

✓ App and Customer ServicesThe app doesn’t allow me to login to my account. Every time I attempt to login with email and password it refreshes the page with no change. No error is given, just refreshes the page. Weird. As far as customer services, they take hours to respond. Now, the part that is my fault is that I selected the wrong subscription and I reached out to make a change. The few questions I had were almost ignored and they only tried to get me to upgrade, “I can upgrade you with your authorization in the next message”. No apologies, no steady responses and no empathy whatsoever. It just gave me the impression I’m getting scammed. I knew I wasn’t but had I not known better, I would think that I was. Otherwise, the over all experience with the product is good. A quality of life improvement would be to allow the “control find” to actually work in the CDL manual. It highlights but doesn’t bring you to the specific findings. You have to scroll manually and find them yourself..Shubacca13Version: 8.2.5

✓ Nice but has an annoying bugIt’s a very helpful app with questions pertaining to my state that helped me ace my permit test, but now that my permit expired and I have to take the test again, I’m noticing new problems. Most notably, whenever I’m supposed to get my results after finishing the practice test to see how I would do on the actual exam, I get “0% questions answered” and “0% questions correct” even though all the questions were answered and correct. This is something that needs to be fixed really soon if this app is supposed to help me for the test I’m supposed to take again soon. Other than that the only other things I can complain about are the recent paywall which is annoying (and which wouldn’t really seem like a great investment for $10 unless you’re THAT terrible at taking the test), but the content that seems to be locked probably doesn’t show up very much on the exam (at least in my state)..Kneec4psVersion: 5.5.1

✓ Incredible App but not up to dateThe DMV recommended this app to study for the California DMV knowledge exam. This app is extremely comprehensive and I love the way it breaks down each category and keeps track of the questions you miss. However, this app is not up to date and only covers questions up to 2021. By using this app, I essentially had all the information memorized by the time I took the test. When I took it, I failed and only failed with new information that wasn’t in the app. I wrote to the app to ask them when they would update and was chastised for using DMV genie as my main study material. I found this very frustrating but it’s also true. Only use this app as one resource for studying. If the app is inconsistent about staying up to date you cannot rely on it as your only source material. I would have given it 5 stars if they were up to date..Milk steak boiled over hardVersion: 8.2.7

✓ Good app but didn’t work for New Jersey TestSo this app is pretty good; it’s motivational, has lots of questions, and makes sure you review anything you got wrong. I’m glad it worked out for so many people but the road test practice questions for the New Jersey road test needs to be updated. Considering there were 10 tests, one of them being 360 questions, I’d feel I knew a good amount of questions for the road test. But during the test I’d say only roughly 15 seemed remotely familiar. The rest I knew from the drivers manual. Plus during the actual test, the choices I had learned to choose from the app were wrong. I wish I could post them so changes can be made but I don’t remember them. Also I know the app has repeat questions so people can review what they learned in the past but the frequency of the repeats is too often, there should be more varied questions to review for more information. If you’re taking the road test, use this app first since it seems easy to learn with but then read the actual manual to make sure the information you need to focus on for your state is accurate..Hachihachoochoo123456789yeahVersion: 4.2.4

✓ Great App to study fromI have to say that this app helped me pass all my tests first time around. I did go through the book to make sure of WHY on some of the answers, like a little more clarification for my own understanding…THATS ME!! When you go though these practice tests, make sure you read the extra knowledge provided with the answers. That will help to answer other questions. It’s a big help to read through each answer and also some of the hints. I was happy to have been told about this app through one of my instructors. I went through each section one by one… going over each tests until I made a 100% correct with only missing one or two BECAUSE of how they word it on the test at the DMV. I passed and will continue to use this app when I further my experience in different areas such as bus/motorcycle. Take your time…it does get easy when you practice practice practice. Read/skim the book too.Mrs ME WilliamsVersion: 7.0.1

✓ (EDITED) Massachusetts Permit Exam PassIt’s absolutely ridiculous that the creators created this new premium feature that it’s very expensive. I was lucky enough to have taken the test two days before the update came out so I was able to access all the tests, some of which are now charged for. I had recommended this to my friends who will be taking their tests in the upcoming months but I’m going to go right back to them and tell them forget it because the app is just about useless now. They say the “core functionality” is still there, but the most helpful tests like marathon and the road signs test have been set to premium. They may have added some other tests, but many other people along with me were able to pass without all those added tests. But, the following text is what my original review said when the app was FREE. “THIS APP IS AMAZING! After passing all the practice tests, I was able to pass my permit test without getting any wrong! I got all 18 I needed to get right straight away! I would also recommend, at least for MA, reading/skimming through the drivers manual! You got this!”.RPrewettVersion: 5.0

✓ Content didn't match what was on the examI read my state's DMV Handbook in full before attempting to work through the courses on this app. I was very surprised when I began the written DMV exam that the questions didn't align with anything I studied so closely for through DMV Genie. My husband had downloaded the app to study for the written test a few months prior, and told me that the course material matched the written exam exactly. I can only suppose they have updated the exam in the interim, as nothing matched at all. I got several questions wrong, and passed by the skin of my teeth. I feel somewhat as though I was offered a false sense of confidence by paying for this course. To be clear, I went through the app rigorously: making sure I earned I a high-scoring pass on every subtest before before practicing all three mock tests several times over. The likelihood of my passing the written test was rated at "100%" more than once by the app, as I finished the mock tests on repeat in preparation. I hadn't understood in paying for this service I was receiving ether a) outdated questions or b) material that while helpful, would not be included on the test. I tried to contact the creators through the in-app "contact us" feature, but I received an error stating that my device "could not send emails," which I know not to be true..FlawberryjamVersion: 8.6.8

✓ UselessNot being bitter but I studied with this app for a month before my permit test. I knew every question inside and out. I went to my test and failed. Not one question from this app was in there..Adamburr1985Version: 4.2
