1. 5/5Best way to pass if you have read the handbook

   This app is great and offers the best way to practice your knowledge test multiple times and get ready. Now as many others have mentioned in their reviews, there is no way to skip reading the Handbook. I was lazy when I moved back to CA to renew my license until my out of state license came one month to expiration. So I had to take the test and book an appointment with less than 2 weeks to practice. With kids and work it’s difficult to find time. I exclusively used this app to get ready doing 4 test a day. I felt ready the day of my appointment. I barely read the handbook while preparing for the test. Man my test was for some reason so much harder than I ever thought a test can be. I had two older ladies around me who where struggling just getting their computer to work and it was a huge distraction. Long story short. My first two answers were wrong and I thought I will be done. The rest of the test was harder but there is a logic to the questions when you don’t know the answers. I used common sense plus logic to get through until some of the questions I practiced with this app started popping up and then came the confirmation screen that I passed the test. Huge relief but conclusion is that take the time to prepare. Study the handbook as much as possible. Practice with the app while studying the handbook. Best of luck

2. 5/5Helpful, but don’t rely on just this app!

   I recently passed my permit test, so here are some suggestions that I definitely recommend doing if you want to pass! I know everyone says this, but I can’t stress it enough, read the manual! I live in Tennessee and every question on my test came straight from the book. If you don’t want to read the book then skim through the pages at least. I really only used the book to study the alcohol and dui portion, everything else I studied from doing practice quizzes online. If you live in Tennessee I recommend taking the test on paper, make sure to ask for it otherwise you’ll be taking it on the computer. I took the computer test, the questions are worded differently so make sure to read it carefully before choosing an answer! Don’t rely on just this app alone because none of the questions that were on this app appeared on my actual test. However, there were some that were similar. I passed with only 1 wrong. The test itself isn’t hard, unless you make it hard. It’s mostly filled with commonsense, it isn’t timed so don’t rush. If you don’t pass the first time you can always retake it. I believe in you, you got this!

3. 5/5I passed!

   I paid for the full access for a week version, I do really enjoy the way that this app teaches, explaining why the answer is correct and I like having the accumulative test so it gives an opportunity to refresh your knowledge without having to go to each individual test. That being said I live in Washington which is said to have the hardest knowledge test out of all of the states. There were little to few actual questions from dmv genie on the knowledge test, but a lot of the same concepts. This app is not to give you answers it is to help you learn concepts so you can answer questions similarly on your own. The only question I recall that was on the exam that was not on dmv genie was about inattentional blindness and a question about where the headrest should be. I used dmv genie, read the drivers guide, and used a few other website with practice questions and I got a 38/40. Make sure you relax, read the questions carefully and take your time. Not everyone passes on their first try so if you don’t it’s okay you’ll know what to study for next time.

4. 2/5Might be good if you pay money, however, it has some issues.

   This app has a limited scheme of what a free user can do. Most features are locked behind a paywall and therefore the percentage counter is not accurate because it calculates mainly on what paid users have accesses to. Also it is riddled with adds. From what I have seen on the app it does have ok questions with nice accompanying images. I also find the link to the (chosen) manual quite useful. I wont test the paid version but you can if you want to, just keep in mind the following before buying. This app has some minor quirks with its question presentation. On the ‘signs quiz’ when a multiple choice sign question comes up (like choose the correct sign: a, b, c, or d), the image cuts off two of the signs on the outside (a and d) so the user cant see them completely. Other questions generally have some multiple choice answers that are the same as other potential answers but worded differently. For example, a railroad sign question I was given had the answers “do not drive on tracks” and “you must not drive on the tracks” where one of these answers was right and the other wrong. If the developers fix these mishaps then this app would have felt more polished when taking tests.

5. 5/5Amazing!!!

   I’ve had this app (DMV Genie) since 2019 to get my CDL I used this app religiously. Initially I was going for my class A. This app is genius !!! Literally everything I studied from this app was on the test when it came to the written portion it was like I took the test before other people sitting around me biting nails fidgeting etc and I’m just click click click click it was a breeze!!! Anyway everything was in succession to obtaining my CDL thanks to DMV Genie . 1) purchased the app “1 time payment option”2) used the app for 1week 3) took the written exam 100% on all tests even endorsements I took !! 4) walked out with my permit 5) 2 weeks later came back to dmv for road test 6) walked out with my CDL !!! Took me 3 weeks to get my CDL!! Only reason why I didn’t get my Class A is because the company I was working for only had a class B vehicle available for me to use for the road test. Now I’m going for the ClassA and using this app (DMV Genie) again 3 years later .. and I’m confident.. Thank You DMV Genie you’ve helped me to expand my career opportunity’s !!!!!
