User Reviews

Users praise Sporty’s Pilot Training for high-quality videos and effective FAA test prep across devices, with many reporting success on exams. However, recurring issues include crashes/freezes, outdated content not aligned with current rules, update-induced bugs, confusing navigation, and download glitches. Overall, the app is valuable for studying, but stability and content accuracy need improvement to maximize usefulness.

Pros

High-quality, well-produced content and videos that are easy to understand.
Strong exam-prep effectiveness; many users report passing FAA written exams using the app.
Multi-device accessibility and online availability across iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, CarPlay, and web.

Cons

Frequent crashes and freezes during study, video playback, quizzes, and submissions.
Content sometimes outdated or not fully aligned with current FAA knowledge tests; some questions poorly worded.
Update-related bugs and regressions breaking features (new layout issues, purchases not recognized, etc.).
Navigation and usability frustrations (confusing course switching, difficulty selecting specific questions).
Download/reading glitches (endless download loops, stuck loading).

I love Sporty’s. Many of the visuals and animations are well done. However, I feel the animations from Pilot Institute surpass the visuals from Sporty’s when it comes to learning, especially on weather training, which I have gone to for clarification. Sporty’s test prep is really good as well as the AI CFI tool. 10.92 will not run and on macOS Tahoe version 26.5.2. It crashes 100% of the time.

New update makes chatdpe crash for ppl. I can’t even use it at all as when I get a question it immediately crashes. App was great before but for the amount of money I’ve spent on this app I wouldnt expect to update it and then have it deemed unusable
