Originally purchased in 2017 before I paused IFR flight training for life stuff. Re-downloaded in 2020 and I am still very happy with this app. Simple layout, easy to navigate, good answer explanations, fun to use. No gimmicks, no flashy stuff, a good, peaceful app to focus on the questions and their meanings. Thanks.

This is a good tablet version of the Sportys online Study Buddy and it's very convenient for casual use when you have a few minutes free. I had some problems with a previous version and Sportys were great at following up with me and fixing them.

Keeps crashing down, would not let me finish a single test. Bad experience and whoever is in charge of costumer service is not very helpful.

Its a great app. I wouldn't suggest using this as your only study guide but its great whenever you have time to kill. I do ask for you to add more question about icing and I would give it 5 stars! Honestly with the emphasis the FAA is putting on icing is should have its own category. I don't understand why the app in my ipad has aircraft icing category but not on the android app.. please fix

Very good learning tool that needs to mature a little. Work better on my tablet (Galaxy Tab 10.1) than my smartphone (Captivate). Most graphics are unusable on a smartphone.

The application often asks the same question more than once during the same Test Mode session. Please fix this. Motorola ATRIX 4G. Also, on my Nexus 7 the figures do not zoom in or out.

About this app

Sporty's Study Buddy will prepare you for the FAA written test like no other study tool available, with three modes of operation - learning mode, simulated tests and flashcards.

Learning Mode allows you to create custom review sessions by selecting exactly which categories you want to review. Each session randomly generates the question order, and provides instant feedback based on your answer selection. Each question also provides a detailed description as to why each answer is right or wrong.
These explanations were developed by Sporty’s team of Master CFIs, based on their experience preparing students for the Instrument Rating.

Flashcard mode tests your knowledge by allowing you to only see the question without the answer choices. After answering the question mentally, you can then select to show the correct answer, and self-grade your progress along the way. This is a great feature that keeps you from being distracted by incorrect answers!

Test mode randomly generates a 60-question session from the entire database of published FAA test questions, simulating the real Instrument Rating test. After answering all the questions, you’ll be given instant results, and have the option to review either all the questions, or just missed questions. Included in the review session are the same detailed explanations for why each answer is right or wrong.
