User Reviews

Users praise King Ground School Companion for engaging, effective instruction and a comprehensive, exam-focused curriculum, with memorable cues and a proven track record of success. However, several reviews report reliability problems on Mac and the website, inconsistent content updates, and usability friction that can hinder a smooth study flow. Content freshness and rotorcraft specifics are also flagged. Overall, strong instructional value with notable app-performance and update challenges.
Pros
  • Engaging, humorous instructors (John & Martha) who teach in a way that helps you win.
  • Thorough, comprehensive ground school content; a one-stop resource for PPL through advanced ratings.
  • Proven results: users report passing FAA written exams and checkrides.
  • Helpful memory cues and concise, easy-to-digest lessons.
  • Well-suited for busy learners due to concise, time-efficient format.
Cons
  • Mac app and website reliability issues (crashes, constant disconnects, downloads failing; offline content not persisting).
  • Content updates not always delivered as promised; new videos sometimes not updated (texts only) and overall update/information may feel outdated.
  • Rotorcraft-specific content gaps and occasional inaccuracies for non-fixed-wing students.
  • Usability friction: back-and-forth between questions and figures makes study feel time-consuming.
  • Accessibility/Playback gaps: missing subtitles and no seamless watch-through mode.

I studied the material thoroughly and did many practice tests. Great presentation of materials, and helped me get a perfect score on my written test! Thanks John and Martha, you have created a masterpiece! I’ll definitely keep coming back for refreshers or when I get more ratings.

Getting short videos with follow up questions really helps retain the tons of information. App has been very solid no issues
