I have to say that pocket prep is worth every penny. I successfully used it to pass my CompTIA Network + exam a few months back, and I am confident that it will help me prepare for Security + as well. I have tried using websites with exam questions, (which provide the same function for free) but the intuitiveness and ease of use make this my go to choice. I can study comfortably literally anywhere!

This app covers definitions of terms. If you already have some knowledge about the vocabulary for security+, it won’t be much help to you. The questions test your understanding of what the terms mean, but not how to apply them. The questions provided are all much simpler than ANY of those in the actual exam. It’s partially my fault for buying the premium version before trying out the 30 questions provided, but the misunderstanding could have easily been avoided had the description provided been accurate. The app is presented as if it’s a way to test your readiness for the exam. It is not. I’m not really sure why there’s a money back guarantee if you fail the certification, because this app can not possibly provide you with the knowledge to pass. It’s got a great user interface and works flawlessly compared to similar apps, but the questions need serious work. In short, DO NOT rely on this app to gauge your knowledge for the certification. Only use it if you’re a total beginner to familiarize yourself with vocabulary. For all others, I recommend Darril Gibson’s GCGA app.

A bit frustrated

This review is for both the app and the online version. Overall, I am fine with the set of questions and the answers. This app alone isn’t going to get you to pass the exam, especially if you don’t have plenty of real life experience in the field. I’ve been frustrated with this app and the online version. A while back, I even reached out via the app but no one got back to me. For the online version, over and over, when selecting a subject sometimes I am able to test on all available questions but other times I can only do 62. I know for a fact that 2.0 has 100 questions so where is the 62 coming from? I tried 3.0 this morning and I could only test 50 questions but now I am able to do all 100. I don’t see the logic. For the mobile app - I often use it on metro and I am convinced that the scoring is off at times maybe when signal cuts off and certain answers aren’t registered/ captured? The high score I would get wasn’t indicative of all the questions I was missing.

Do NOT use this app as a main study engine

I am very disappointed with the questions on this app. The 4 star review on this app befuddles me because I truly and objectively think it does not merit such a rating. I would argue that almost 25% of the questions on this app have NOTHING to do with the actual exam. For example, this app asks you all the different classes of fire extinguisher classes (A-K) and asks you all the different steps of the SDLC and what number each step is (that’s not directly tied to IT Security!). I foolishly wasted so much time on this study engine thinking it was legit. It’s absolutely not! If you want real study material and preparation for the exam, spend your money on a book. Buy Darril Gibson or watch professor Messer videos (free). Those sources are excellent study materials. This app deserves to be in the bin. I strongly recommend to not spend the $15 on it as it will be a waste of your money and, more importantly, your time.

4.5 stars, actually! 💪 We're sorry you feel our app belongs in the trash (talk about harsh!) but a lot of hard work went into providing affordable CompTIA practice that's helped thousands conquer their exam. Obviously, we're not designed to be your only study tool as we don't include performance based questions (PBQs) which make up a good chunk of the exam (these would be really tough if not impossible to do on a mobile device). The topics we do cover can and usually are presented on the exam, even questions about fire extinguishers because, hey, you should know how to stop a fire in a server room. Each item is painstakingly referenced to other valid study guides and textbooks to make fact-checking and general studying less of a hassle. We just spent a few hundred hours updating the curriculum to the new(ish) SY0-501 exam blueprint. At the end of the day, our apps aren't for everyone. We totally get that. That doesn't mean your opinion is the only one that counts!
