By Moises_20 (Pcmac user)

Very good and useful app to study for dwo but there’s about more than a handful of questions that the answer wrong. It needs to be fixed
App is great but theres a fatal error

By Goalieace93 (Pcmac user)

When attempting to delete prior test records the app crashes. I can’t figure out how to report this to the developer
great app - well worth the price

By atomde85 (Pcmac user)

Short story: Great app - well worth the price. Long story - I was a little hesitant to purchase the app after the reviews about how the questions are inaccurate. Therefore, when I take tests on the app and I see something that looks odd I check the answer against the USCG test bank. I can’t speak for the last several people who have reviewed the app, but the official USCG and this test have always matched except 1 anomaly and I e-mailed the company to inquire. I got a response back immediately that they were looking into it and a day later explained that the answer had been updated in the last version of the USCG testing bank and they would incorporate that answer into their next version as well. Bottom line - questions and answers match the USCG test perfectly well, customer service is fast in case you do doubt an answer, and the app is well worth it if you have to study for an RoR test.
For the professional mariner and dedicated recreational skipper

By Captain Alatriste (Pcmac user)

I found this app very useful; and so far it has been bug-free. It has all the USCG questions, and while it can present them randomly at user choice, it’s even more useful (to me, anyway) when it presents the questions as a ‘set’, because then you get a sense of the USCG’s perspective on an issue; the questions then seem to be attacking a concept from multiple angles. What is nice is the availability of so many user options. You can practice with no record being kept, practice with scoring, and if desired, one can easily reset the scores to zero and begin again fresh. Also included in the Reference section is a library of US and Canadian Navigation Rules, as well as a bibliography of maritime law resources. A set of 87 flash cards are readily linked with their associated questions. My only suggestion is to use a darker shade of the green font in the answers. The present green lacks contrast when displayed against some of the Caribbean Sea wallpaper photos. All in all, a handy and effective way to prep for the Masters exam, or perhaps even more importantly, for the skipper who wants to know the Rules and be as professional as he or she can be.
