I signed up and paid the money for the questions. Everything was fine until i had separate issues with my phone and had to put it back to factory. Now im trying to log into the app and i forgot my password. When i click on 'forgot password' it takes me right back to the sign up page! Ive deleted and redownloaded the app a fee times and i keep getting the same issue. So im locked out!

Find the same questions for free on quiz let...I cant believe I wasted time on this app and its basically just an ad to get you to spend $40 on very few questions.. it's like if they made the base app added a few things and then gave up on it... it's too expensive for what it is... your better off using the free stuff.. you'll get the same out of it and get to keep the 40.

My big issue with this app is that I actually paid 40 dollars for it on 12/1/15, but ended up not taking the test because certification isn't required in my state. So I decide to go ahead and get certified, I go back into the app, and it wants me to pay 40 dollars to "unlock premium." When I go to restore purchase it says there's not purchase history, but I can go in my purchases and see where I already paid 40 for it. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and still nothing.

I had technical issues at the beginning but resolved quickly. I'm glad to say I passed my CST in Aug 29 and this app helped me to better understand concepts as relate to our career. The premium ia well worth it.

Downloaded app with hopes of taking test, but just the same old.questions. No new material. 15 years in the field and AST says my school is not accredited. They want me to go back to school(pay more money) and pay for certification. I am fine with current job.

Hei. S. Feb 22, 2019     

App is ok. Thought there would be more available without having to pay so you can't get anywhere unless you pay money. I understand but mostly students would be using this app so that isn't well thought out.

A great way to study and practice the test. I love how it shows you why answers are right and wrong. How long you take and your own stats. Definetly recommend this app to everyone and everyone preparing for the test!

Del. P. Aug 11, 2021     

I can not open the app that I have already installed. It keeps saying To download I need a web Browser app. I have already paid for this and now I can't even use it. I have forced stop it as suggested and still nothing helps.

Fab. P. Oct 28, 2018     

Definitively, a good comprehensive review for the certification test. Always handy, and accessible at anytime and anywhere

Only loads every 3rd try (I have a Galaxy S10). Also, took me a minute to figure out how to navigate it, not very user friendly.

Amb. L. May 9, 2019     

I think it is helpful, I love the explanation of answers but I dislike the fact you have to pay pay pay for everything nbsts has. They get enough money from membership dues and ceu's

Ale. F. Aug 17, 2019     

Question of the day time notification option does not work. i have it set to 8 am but it still notifies me at 6:40 pm even though i have changed it multiple times.

Glo. G. Mar 6, 2021     

I just took this exam. I used this app to help me study in order to get an idea of what type of exam questions there might be on the exam. Not ONE single question in this app was on the exam. Not ONE. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP, YOU WILL WASTE YOUR STUDY TIME.

Sab. B. Jul 2, 2021     

Not helpful at all. Took my national exam today and nothing on this app was on the exam. Total waste of time and money. Very disappointed!

mik. s. May 8, 2019     

Pay $40 and you only get 335 questions? How can the Official Prep app only give 335 questions when there are over 2000 possible questions? How is this helping anyone prepare? Huge waste of money and time. Huge mistake purchasing this app. Lange is 14.99 a month and has over 1700 questions

Jor. C. May 27, 2019     

hopefully this is a great way to study for my cst exam in July. being able to study questions on the go is really helpful in anyone's life style!

Ale. M. Mar 14, 2019     

Awesome! this app is a must if you're planning on taking the CST exam! the questions are so useful and it keeps your mind at its prime!

Izz. H. May 21, 2019     

Good app but I think is kinda pricey if the price were lower i might consider to buy it, unfortunately the free content is very small

Abb. W. Apr 2, 2019     

It had good questions but i dont like that you only get 10 for practice and then have to upgrade and pay to get the rest of the questions.

Jas. N. Jun 24, 2021     

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY and TIME. Nothing useful. Everything is different in the exam even style of the questions.

Ste. S. Aug 29, 2019     

Just started but i love the setup and metrics plus it's a great refresher before i take the practice exam. Wish me luck

Les. P. Feb 3, 2019     

its amazing. really great way to study and practice on the subject that you need help the most

Sun. J. Jun 7, 2019     

I like that it helps you stregthen your weak areas and that you can use it anywhere (bus, train).

Cor. K. Oct 19, 2018     

Seems helpful but may need to upgrade to be really helpful and the app seems a little expensive.

A. G. u. Sep 30, 2018     

Could have had daily updated the QOTDs. It's expensive as well for an app, not a book!

Ken. W. Oct 10, 2018     

Great app very similar to a study book that was provided in school. Shows explanations.

A. G. u. Feb 18, 2019     

This app really helped me understand the questions I didn't get right by having the option of choosing to see an explanation of the correct answer

Jen. J. May 29, 2020     

I want to use this on my computer also and it loads an older version and the test that I spent the money for the CST isn't an option on the website when I log in.
