| 2025-01-04 |  | | The interface is great. Clean and simple, it presents the information in an easy to read way. Study mode is fantastic for learning the questions and answers. The practice exams are just as well done. Definitely worth the money. I've gone from zero to three perfect scores on practice exams in about 9 hours. I just burned through Study mode until I had gotten most questions correct at least two times in a row, and then tried the practice exams. The app made it very easy. |
| 2024-12-11 |  | | Finally studied after I broke my leg to get certified. Easiest place to learn for me is on my phone. I have previous experience with electronics but not much. I was able to study in about a month 5-30min a day and pass 33/35 on my tech test! Highly recommend and I'll be using for general and maybe even extra once I have enough money to drop on a radio that would be worth advancing that far. Big props to app developers. Works like a charm! |
| 2024-10-20 |  | | I like the app and it works great. I used it to pass my General and am now working on my Extra. I use the app on my phone during the day when work is slow or I am on a break and on my tablet when I get home. The only thing I don't like is that the study sessions themselves are not synced across devices. Other than that, I highly recommend this app. |
| 2024-09-15 |  | | 2024-0916 I really like this app, it helps you study in a variety of ways that for me helps me retain the material better. The only "issue " I have is that when you are scrolling through reading each question, it's very sensitive to scroll past your next question. it's very sensitive and if you slide to scroll to the next question just a little too hard you may go passed it by two or three questions. Otherwise this is an excellent app. |
| 2024-09-03 |  | | I'm now an Extra class VE and I cannot recommend the app and the website highly enough. If you're studying for your ticket (any element) this is the best resource available. Questions seen and aptitude are great guides to knowing when you're ready for the exam. Consistently scoring 80%or better and you'll be ready. I used hamstudy myself for all three exams. This VE highly recommends you use it as well. |
| 2024-07-24 |  | | Highly recommend this app (You probably won't need to take other online courses). App form makes it very easy to study during breaks/cooking/walking. The explanations for questions are great starting point to read further if you like to. Mock tests are very useful. Highly recommend starting with "Read questions" mode, and after going through all questions, then and only then take practice tests. Studied for 1 month, Aced all 3 levels. (I'm an electrical engineer by training) |
| 2024-01-12 |  | | It is currently stuck on "designing optimal study session". Android app. Will uninstall and reinstall. [That fixed it!] That said, this app helped me pass my Technician Class with flying colors. Currently studying for the General Class. Recommend adding a feature to let me look at, in non-test format, the frequency at which Im getting specific questions wrong, including by gradients in the Cram sessions, if possible. Thanks for all you already do! Edit 2: Very excited and looking forward to it! |
| 2024-01-11 |  | | SUPER app. It has everything you need to pass the tests. I've used it to pass the Tech, General and Extra license tests. Also, to support the app developers, I bought a 2-meter antenna from Signal Stuff for my Baofeng BF-F8HP and WOW what an improvement on reception and transmission. Thank you, HamStudy, you're the greatest!! |
| 2023-06-26 |  | | I was using the website when I decided to try the app instead and I'm glad I did. It made it much more convenient and took all my excuses away that prevented me from studying. I was able to study both Technician and General Exams and passed both with the help of the continual drilling and ability to see my progress right away in the app. I'm glad the Ham Radio Crash Course on YouTube recommended it and I absolutely recommend it! |
| 2023-06-25 |  | | I would give this app 10 stars if I could. Fantastic tool! I just passed my Extra exam with a 96% correct thanks to this app. I love how it gives so much flexibility in what you study, and tracks your weak and strong areas. It reinforces the areas where you are weak, and provides excellent, concise explanations for the answers. And of course, is very convenient to use. Beautifully designed and exceptionally functional. Thank you, Signal Stuff folks! |
