I had originally given this a one star review due to my own misunderstanding of how the app works. I apologize to the developer for my own stupidity. This app prepared me better than any other study guide I used when preparing for the A+. I love that it goes through the sections and they basically become flashcards that you can keep reviewing, also they give an explanation as to why you are incorrect. Both the 1101 and 1102 sections come with 9-10 practice tests. There is a final you can take if you want. If you are looking to get the A+, I would recommend watching professor Messer’s videos (mainly because I find Dion to be insufferable) and then reinforce that learning with this app. I will be purchasing the Net+, Sec+, and the CCNA apps as well.

I noticed a lot of complaints in reviews after I purchased the pro version about the questions being outdated. They updated some questions and they do have some updated questions but a lot of the old questions are still on the app. Questions about windows vista and 7/8 that aren’t even a part of the 1102 exam. Not only that, they are worded horribly with lots of grammatical errors. I was still okay with all of this because a lot of the questions are good and this is a good study tool as far as the explanations go. But it appears to have been written by some Indians or Chinese people that have no idea how American grammar works. MY LAST STRAW: and I really want you all to read this part.. I gave this app many chances regardless of the errors, but there are wrong answers. I was asked how much drive space is needed to install the 64 bit version of windows 10 which is very obviously 32gb but that wasn’t even an answer choice and they said it was 20gb. That’s a really big mistake for such a simple question and I want a refund at this point.

A lot of the test questions are biased towards people born around the year 2000. The term “old laptop” is too general. Some laptops still contain 2 1/2” drives in them. Some of the test question answers will list a choice 2.5 “ hdd + a ssd or even a m.2 type drive option for replacement in a answer list. All are valid test question answers. Not just a ssd or m.2 choice is correct provided the hardware will support them. At least the question could include 10 years ago to get an idea of the technologies to pick from These drives are used in notebooks and older laptops such as my 2013 macbook pro. Is that considered old? Some one born 20 years ago probably does not know what “older technology” really means The test question answers need to be proof read by someone over 30 There is a lot of age biasLots of guessing game questions that requires not problem solving but mind reading like girlfriends i had the past until i met the right one.

As an IT professional with over 25 years in the industry, I decided to pursue an A+ certification to help strengthen my edge in, what is, a terribly over-saturated industry. While this app has given me some insight into areas of knowledge I need to brush up on, I still find it rather inadequate as a study tool due to its vaguely worded questions and poor grammar. Furthermore, its assessment of one’s ability to pass the A+ exam seems to be more of a measurement of how much of the content they’ve covered in the app.I’d also like to note that there are many questions that are tedious and trivial. In over 25 years of a vastly dynamic IT career, I have never had to bother with some of the content matter in some of the questions I have come across in this app. Do the A+ exams ACTUALLY cover such tedious and trivial content matter? If not, such questions in this app are an utter waste of time and brain space.
