User Reviews

Users praise Prepware Private Pilot as a strong mobile study tool with a realistic, exam-like question bank that many say helps them pass PAR, plus a large set of practice questions and a convenient save-and-resume feature. However, reviews repeatedly flag content accuracy issues (wrong/outdated answers), incomplete topic coverage, and significant readability problems in dark mode due to poor contrast. Bugs and stability concerns, especially on Mac, and questions about value for money further impact ratings. Overall, it's a helpful supplement when used with caution about its flaws.
Pros
  • Great for studying on the go thanks to mobile accessibility.
  • Question bank is realistic and aligned with the real FAA PAR, helping users pass.
  • Large volume of practice questions provides broad coverage.
  • Many users report high scores after using the app.
  • Save/Resume feature makes it easy to pick up where you left off.
Cons
  • Content accuracy issues: wrong or outdated answers; some questions conflict with the official material.
  • Poor readability in dark mode / color-contrast problems (white text on light backgrounds, black on black).
  • Incomplete coverage: some questions/topics are missing from the app.
  • Bugs and instability, including platform-specific issues (notably on Mac) and degraded UI after updates.
  • Price/value concerns: perceived overpriced for the quality; mixed opinions on whether it's worth the cost.

I bought other courses outside this app on the $300 range and the test between the 2 was very close. I appreciated this app far more as it focused on the harder questions. It made me read the charts and got me very familiar the testing supplement figures. I highly recommend it. Was able to finish with a 93% on the PAR.

I’m studying for my Private Glider Pilot license. Even though I’ve selected PGL, questions that are obviously for powered pilots show up occasionally, 5% to 10% of the time. This is extremely frustrating. I may consider using a different app.
