Read the App Developers responses 😂. 100% bought it because of the App Developers responses to negative reviews. I would say it was well worth it. I made E6 this year on my first try, and used this app to study for it. Thank you for developing an effective app, please keep being a savage.

Study or die. Study every section, test with instant feedback, review missed questions, read the book for your worst sections. If you do this it is impossible not to promote.

iPhone X update. I’ve been using this app for a couple months now and I love it so far, I haven’t tested yet so I can’t comment on the relevance of the content but I wish there was an iPhone X update so it would fit the screen better. Right now I have big gaps at the top and bottom of the screen..

Switching between devices. I really love this app. I do have a question is there a way to make it where if I study on my phone that what I studied and tested over transfers over to my IPad or computer? Sometimes I study on my IPad but would like to pick up where I left off on my phone if I’m out and about.

Way better. This update they just did made this app ten times easier to read and use to study. I appreciate y’all for looking out and helping us Airmen. And good luck to the Airmen seeing this and looking to promote.

Great. The app and all they ways to study are great. I would have given a complete 5 star if only the audio studying was just a little bit better. The very generic monotone computer voice just isn’t great. It would be so much better is their was some way to get a person to read the information like a audio book that would be way better.

Buy It - It’s well worth it for the price. I’ve purchased other promotion apps - ones that require you to spend $80 every two years for their update - and this one knocks them out of the water. It’s aesthetically pleasing, easy to use, and lets you study based on MKTS priority. I’ve had no issues with it. Plus, it’s only $25 with lifetime updates. I’ve found that I’ve been more motivated to use this one over other study apps. I won’t bash McMillan for their way overpriced and poorly designed app. I’ll just say that I highly recommend this one.

Best Promote App. I always recommend this to my coworkers. This app will get you promoted and it’s way better than spending 3X as much on PDG gold!!! Also this app constantly updates whenever their is a change. If you want to get promoted. BRO GET THIS APP.!! 🗣🗣🗣

Great app. Makes it easy to study. Maybe you could add some simple jeopardy style or matching games with sound effects for those of us who find it hard to study by flash cards and quizzes. App still works great but if you’re still looking to improve and stimulate the mind, these are things other apps have done.

Good but needs to be updated. The app is good with some glitches that can be easily resolved, example unable to continue or return from where you left. The major issue is the line of question needs to be updated. MKTS priorities list is good but the questions were never revised. Example E7 MKTS Airman’s Creed questions should not be the same for E8.

Great tool!. Last year I bought this app but didn’t really put much time into studying and missed Tech by 2 points. This year I put in about 2 solid months of studying prior to my test date using strictly this PROmote App and I just made Tech by 13 points! I felt the information was relevant and current with what was on the test so I strongly recommend this investment.

Just Started. This is my first time actually attempting to study. I will update the review after I receive my scores. I have approximately a month and a half till I test and will likely only receive a promote. Hopefully I can come back and write a decent review after the scores are released.

The “study” tab upsets me. I love this app and I appreciate the free upgrades. I don’t understand why they decided to work the study option in the question answer format. I only want questions and answers when taking a test! The study option should be in a factual note format taken from the AFH. Edit-definitely worth a five once that edit is made

Review? Why not. I’m bored. This app is pretty good. Giving it 5 stars because I wouldn’t change much about it. It updates to the current testing requirements, and has very few issues. Perfect for getting up to E5 or E6. Don’t get me wrong. It has its issues. I’m a little miffed that the ‘voice’ portion reads the apostrophes as “number 39”.. so that’s a little annoying. Studying or listening to it on a car ride and a sentence says something along the lines of “The numbered AF blah blah blah it’s own squadrons.” It doesn’t read like it should, it reads “..blah blah blah it number 39 S own squadrons.” The text is fine, but the voice in the app makes minor errors like that. But again, that’s minor. The questions hit everything and flows pretty well. The fact that it remembers everything you do in the app, has the ability to do missed question tests on its own, option to randomize the questions, it’s a good study partner. 5 out of 5 if going by stars, or 9.9 out of 10 on a real scale, because nothing’s perfect. Try it out. Worth the chump change to buy the app and you don’t have to re-buy anything or have in-app purchases.

Great App to make it to the next Stripe.... The app itself is amazing in terms of testable material to come in the tests and tracks progress. The only two setbacks I see is that: 1. It won’t save any progress made in the “Create Custom Test”. If you make a 1,000+ questions test and want to rest a bit, if you press “Pause” you just lost all the progress you have made until now and have to restart all over again, discouraging you from doing it again. 2. I have sent numerous emails asking this company how to use the app/material in another devices, for example a PC. I bought this app here at the AppStore and I want to use it on my PC, but I don’t see a way. They promote the “Now On PC....” but it’s just to use the Microsoft Store, get the app and pay for it again. Oh and they have not replied back to any emails I have sent. So there is that.

Good but could be better. Overall the app is great, formulates great tests but I feel that there should be links the the PDG for questions so that you can read the source yourself. Yes I know you can go look it up yourself but a quick link in the app would make it a nice one stop shop so to speak. I would recommend this to a friend btw.

Worth the purchase. Very useful and practical as well. Only minor mistakes here and there but none are misleading in any way. Would love the option to take a test over all chapters at once instead of just individual chapters. Update: August 2018. The latest update on my phone allows me to create a custom test and cover all chapters. For me the App is now ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Buy it!!. I bought this app a few years ago for E-5. And made it my first time. I think I made a 94. I used it again for 2020 E-6. Made it first time again!! Scored 26 pts over the cutoff without any promotion statement. Buy the app and apply yourself. I only studied for 3 weeks a few hours a day.

Clean interface and layout. I’ve been using this app to study for promotion for the last 8 weeks and it definitely makes me feel more prepared for the WAPS this cycle. Even though some of the hints for remembering things seem super random, they definitely help you remember the material. Good job with the functionality and easy to navigate interface. I also like the MKTS option to study topics of more importance. Excellent app and I have already recommended to my colleagues at work. Keep it up!

Promoted to SSgt. This app is truly amazing, I only used this app to study and I got over a 90 on my WAPS test. Even going into the test there was not one question that I didn’t at least recognize a little bit. I definitely recommend getting this app to study.

Best app around one big flaw!. This app is a great tool to promote even if you have limited time. However right now the only way to test on more than one chapter is by Custom Test>select chapters and # of questions. The problem with that is that some of this chapters are fairly big and riddled with A3 sections and the test will try to pick an even amount of questions from each chapter. (Most chapters have more A3 material than any other material). Technically there is nothing wrong with that as it will still be testable information. But even the app recommends X1 (x being the leve of understanding; abc) the most and X3 the least. So you will spend most of your time on “less important material”. If only there was a “Mock Wasp Test Option” where it selected from all the elegible chapters but in a rate that most of the material was extremely important; followed by Very important; and last the Important material. This option would make an already great app the best all around app. Adding a timer to said option would be the cherry on top.

Helpful hints really not that helpful. I like the app the material is great but seems like it’s just more work trying to memorize the helpful hints to help you memorize the answers. At that point your not really learning just memorizing but hey at the end of the day the information is getting in. I could just do with out these helpful hints or atleast make them helpful

Great app!. This app has come a long way, and it is crazy how well put it is now. Not saying that it used to be bad, but it’s improvements to make the practice tests harder certainly increases the value in its ability to prepare.

Immediate Success. I studied on my own an struggled my first testing cycle. That’s when a friend told me about this app, and I used it to study for the following years test. Needless to say, I was promoted! You can literally study any time or place, no matter if you do or do not have an online connection! This app is amazing, I really recommend it! #NoLongerE4Mafia

Great App! Apple Pencil Support?. I love this app so far! I will be testing for E6 real soon and everything’s been going good with the app. The only thing I’d suggest is making it compatible with the Apple Pencil for note taking. I understand that it allows you to type notes but for some people it’d add to the experience if the user was able to write notes instead of typing them. Other than that this app is amazing and seems like the developers take the time to continuously update!

Helped me make Tech!. I love this app! I made Tech my first time using it. Plus you can’t beat the price. The other apps cost way more and you can only use them for 2 years. Once you pay for this one you have all updates for life. Just study the MKTS and you are golden. Unfortunately, I won’t have to use it again since they took away testing for SNCOs. Please make an app for the SKT portion. I know that would require a lot of man hours, research, and resources but you guys have promotion testing figured out!

Great setup, needs an added feature. The priorities and the set up is fantastic in this app, however it desperately needs a flash card function. Otherwise you read the same slide question with answer countless times. Makes learning extremely boring and difficult

Missed Questions Test. So they want to get rid of the missed questions test, prefer people test in smaller chunks and trust the algorithm but users like the specific “missed questions.” I don’t understand why they don’t just utilize the missed questions test more broadly in that case. As it is now, you hit the missed questions test and you only answer what you recently missed, then it disappears until you miss more questions. Just make it routinely test on the users weak answers rather than resetting every time. There’s way too many sections to go over, so that’s probably why people want to specifically focus on things they’re missing rather than going section by section again.

Not bad but new update has bugs.. Overall this app is great. Only rested for stars due to new update and possible bugs with it. On multiple slides in the new study feature, it will not register that I have went over the exact slide and remain blue. It leads to it saying I have completed 50/57 slides on multiple occasions. The only way I have found to fix it is sitting on the slide for over five minutes. There are other slides that have a different shade of green and I am unsure if this means something or if that is also another visual bug. Any response would be greatly appreciated on how to remedy this for everyone else.

Finally made it !!!!!. I would highly recommend this app for anyone trying to make the next rank. I like the fact that you get updates at no additional charge. It also has audio and allows you to sort by SKT importance which really helps a lot .

Audiobook section is laughable. Wanting to charge people extra for you to put a decent voice in the audiobook section is absolutely ridiculous. It’s already a $30 app (for free information) but the audio section took the cake. Also the voice doesn’t change when I changed it in the settings (which they state can be changed in their FAQs)

Made SSgt. I said I would write a review when I got promoted and well that time has finally come. I finally made SSgt with the help of this app. It’s a great study tool if you want to do better than your peers.

2nd time testing for MSgt and killed it. I wouldn’t have made E-7 without this app. I blew the PDG out of the water. I say it was my second time but actually it was my first, due to the fact that I didn’t crack a book the first year because of “mandatory” EPME. Thank you guys for putting this app together. I’ll definitely be using it in two years when it comes time for me to test for SMSgt!

Great app!!. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because of the way the questions are read when you listen to them. It is hard to separate the question from the answer and it gets confusing. If the developer could change that, the app would be perfect.

App Creators were helpful. The app crashed every time I tried to open it. as it was recommended by a friend of mine since he made staff with it his first time I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt. I emailed the app creators, they had a very fast response time, and looked right into it. I really appreciate it and am anxious to get to work on studying

Best study material ever. Tested for SMSgt out of cycle, using this app was beyond helpful for my promotion selection. After studying the book and using this app for practice tests, I scored an 82 with 60 days to study. I will never go back to McMillan products.

Absolutely Worth It. Got the app back in 2017 and used it religiously studying for E5 and then E6. Made it both first times. Material is always kept up to date, and updates are pushed regularly. Hands down, I recommend this app to supplement studying for promotion. Thanks!

New update good but has some question bugs. The new update is very helpful with the applicable readable content (AF1 paragraphs) a click away from the study guides and test questions. My only complaint is that some of the questions aren’t worded correctly. There are a few that should say which of these is not the correct answer etc. With the paragraphs I’m able to read and make applicable question notes, which helps. It would be nice to see that’s fixed though.

Hire a voice over actor. I’m a visual learner but reading this gets boring real quick. I find that having the audio voice on and reading along helps me out much better but for the love of god fix the AUDIO VOICE. It would make studying x10 better if it had a noice flowing voice and not the monstrosity of a voice over.

Needs serious work. At first I was excited about this app & didn’t know what the other bad reviews were talking about but it’s true— this app has a lot of problems. There is no easy way to communicate the problems with the developer. There are slides that are duplicated, slides that speak but nothing appears, frequently skipping to other slides without showing the words. Some Air Force info IS NOT up to date. & lastly the speaker only goes at one speed regardless if you changed the voice speed in your settings. This makes it difficult to follow along because of how fast the voice reads & also does not pronounce some words correctly so you find yourself going over the same slide (not in a helpful way) just to understand what the speaker is saying.

Great App. I went through all the tests and quizzes in this app for a couple of months leading up to testing for MSgt. Without even reading the PDG and only doing the questions I ended up getting an 89 on the PFE. If you’re looking for a great study tool buy this app and don’t waste your time or money on PDG gold.

Best thing I did was decide to pay and use this app!!!. Bought this app Nov 2021 for the upcoming 22E6 promotion cycle. Put the work in utilizing this app and all the sections offered. It definitely was frustrating at times because the way the app is designed, is that the questions and material is presented in multiple ways even more difficult than what you’ll find on the actual PFE. I’m not kidding I was flying through the PFE portion of my exam and was like it makes sense as to why it seemed so hard to study. It’s all for your benefit!!! Get this app, put in the work and go get what’s yours! 22E6 (T)Sgt Select and a first time tester at that. Thanks to the team of developers involved with this app! Good luck to you all out there.

Outstanding. I had a small issue with this app and submitted a help ticket. The CEO responded and not only fixed it but continued to follow up to ensure the problem was rectified. Amazing customer service and a great app. This is my first ever review and highly recommend it

Good but has issues. The app is good. It’s smart it has all the stuff you need. However it could use some sort of game or something to keep your attention better would be nice. The issue however is the same one as mentioned before. At least for IOS in my experience. It doesn’t matter how you close the app. If you click the done button before you leave the app. If you leave the app any test that is in progress will not be able to be resumed from where you left off. It gives you an error stating “oops there were no questions in the subjects you selected” if they fix that it will be 4 stars because like I said it has nothing to keep your attention.

App Transfer to Different Device. Message to the creators, I bought this app through the apple app store and now I’m being forced to purchase again through google play after i got my new phone. I was wondering if theres a way to restore purchase so I’m not having to buy again. Thank you for your guys help

Solid as “Gold”. This is a solid app and it will help you with reinforcing what you study! I’ve used pdg gold for several test cycles in the past and I can honestly say this is just as good if not better. The choice is yours... $120 or $20?

Not all information is correct. I like this app I use it along with the hard copy to study but every now and then I come across question that aren’t correct and there isn’t a way to flag the question for the developers.

Helped big time. A few little glitches here and there. Sometimes I didn’t save where I had studied last, but a minor inconvenience. Helped me make Master this time around by letting me study in sections and test at my own pace vs reading a whole PDF file the AF provides.

Great. This app is great to use in addition to other study methods. It is great that you can hear the test questions and answers being read to you while you are driving. No wasted time.

2 (M)Sgts. Thank you for your amazing app! Thanks to PROmote, my wife and I have been selected for promotion. I love the study guide material and the exams. Before my wife recommended this app, I had purchased the PDG Gold and it was straight garbage. I didn’t retain a thing and it was a struggle. With PROmote, it just seemed to be so easy. Glad she recommended it! Thanks again! Highly, highly recommend PROmote!!

Missing explanations. The questions are good and it includes MKTS but when you get an answer wrong, there is no explanation given. Other apps explain the right answer and list a reference. This is more helpful for studying and you learn more that way.

Just one thing missing. I have this app on my iPhone and iPad, it would be nice if they were in sync so I can pick up where I left off on my phone to my iPad or vice verse, rather than try and figure out where I left off. Other than that, I love it.

Made rank. I was promoted because of this app. I scored my highest score ever in my career after studying this. There is a lot of info but just don’t quit. Thanks

Missing lots of very important information. The E5 study/test material is MISSING 17 sections!! All of the sections are from the “LEVEL OF COMPREHENSION ‘A’. remembering” That is debatable the most important and certainly most common test material. It’s ridiculous, we are studying tier 2 material according to the ADTC scale. List of missing sections for others to find in AFH-1. 1 A-D, 2 A-C, 3 B-D, 5 A/C, 10 B, 11 C/D, 12 C/E. Please fix this

Awesome App!!!. Made rank first time, score increased over 20 points and it has lifetime update unlike other study material!!! A must buy!!

Do it!. Buy it. Well worth the money and very convenient to have on your phone. Make sure to sort your study chapters by MKTS.

Audio. Would be a lot better if you could directly find the audio for studying instead of being offered the opportunity to use it once.

Study study study. Great app it’s been helping me cover a huge portion of my study material needed for my upcoming test. I heard this app updates every test cycle but I’m not 100% sure if that’s accurate info or not.

Worth it. First time testing for staff I scored a 56 for pdg, this time around was a 67. really helped prioritize my studying. Highly recommend.

Update. So when’s the update coming??

New update is iffy. I love the new interface, but after the update my app won’t load any missed questions. If I try and test on them it will just indefinitely load. Kind of annoying for an expensive app.

Great but be careful. Great App overall, however, if you are testing for TSgt this year, it is outdated. Revert to the EPRRC until this app is updated to reflect the new material. For example, the sections do not align with the testing material.

Good app except for one thing. There are WAY too many gotcha questions. Half the answers are all synonyms of the same buzzword.

SSgt now onto TSgt. The price for a lifetime subscription is unbeatable. Used it to help make SSgt, now using to test for TSgt this next year. Developers are responsive in correcting app issues promptly as they arise as well.

Worth. Incredibly valuable resource, allows us to study anywhere anytime. Using this in conjunction with pdg gold and will update this review based on test results.

Test on iPad not working. For the price all elements should work every time. The tests on the iPad version just don’t work for me. Great app otherwise but the tests are the main reason I spent the money.

Accurate. This app is pretty accurate on what’s on the test. Highly recommended

Promoted. Didn’t make it until I used this app exclusively to study. Made a 77 on PFE. Made it by 10 points. It’s worth the money.

UPDATE ON UPDATE. Such a great and responsive developer. 5 stars. I actually feel bad for giving 1 star at first.

Best Promotion App. I've used this app for TSgt and MSgt, and both times I improved my score by 15 pts when I actually put the time and effort into studying. Awesome app!

Developers please help!. Every time I try to run this app it immediately closes! The app really help me raise my score last year and helped some of my friends make it (they used it more then me) wanted to get a good head start this year but I can’t get it to stay open! Developers please help!

Made TSgt 1st try!!! Love this app!. I made TSgt first try, thanks to this app. I scored 81 on the PFE test by studying the MKTS section in the app. One of the best investments I’ve made for my Air Force career.

5 star. Great source to study on the fly. Easy to use.

Audio needs updating. Decent slides but audiobook needs to be updated. It’s a robotic women who can’t even pronounce some words correctly and says the acronyms confusingly. Would be better if it was a person reading the audiobook

Afi updates. Found certain chapters that are current per recent Air Force updates such as some of the dress and appearance standards that were changed many months prior.

Great app. It’s an awesome app and helps so much with so much useful information. But imma go ahead and give it 3 stars cause it’s my third time testing for staff and I still ain’t make it 😏

GPresident. I scored above average on both sections! Thanks to the audio feature and the simulation tests! I highly recommend PROmote!

staff stufy material. When are you going to have the Staff study material. Ive had to app for a while now and its still not updated

Made Staff First Time!!!. This app was my only study material used for testing. I recently put on SrA in January and started studying in March for the test in May, and I got it!!! Highly recommend.

Update. Just curious when the new update will be. Love using this app.

Nice....but with glitches. This is a nice app thus far....but every time I close it, it completely erases my history and I have to constantly start from the beginning each time I open it. Can you please fix this issue ASAP???

Fantastic tool. I have used this for the last 3 years and would continue to use it if E-7 testing wasn’t being retired. I recommend this app to all my troops, very well done.

I made Staff With this app!. This app was great. I scored really high on my PTG. I would change the listen to a better AI force to make the listening experience more fluent

Great App. Got my score and I passed with flying colors. The question hints are a bit weird but it did the job. First time WAPS testing.

Best tool. Best tool ever for studying! Made staff my first try and I felt super good about taking the PDG. This app is hands down worth the money.

Review. The format is good. However, There are 2,077 slides of info for a 100 question test. It doesn’t narrow anything down helpfully. Things that sound the most important end up not being on the test at all, rendering note taking almost useless.

Miss guided in some areas. This app is a solid study tool however it seems to be missing comprehension level A in the ADTC section for promotion to Tech. Not sure what else it may be missing. Hopefully they can push out an update to fix it. Just bought the app a day ago..

Passed SSgt Test 1st Time. What I did: -Prioritized what to make notes for based on MKTS chart -Made Flashcards with the information found in app (very time consuming) -Studied flash cards everyday for an hour or so *I thought I failed considering what I saw as a priority in the MKTS chart versus what I saw on the Air Force Knowledge portion of the test was not there. In other words, I guessed a lot on questions/material I’ve never seen/studied. Follow my advice. Study all parts of the Air Force Handbook/PDG, regardless of the priority. You’re welcome.

Confused. Why when I take a test for testing for TSgt under the new update, Air Force history is all 2C stuff, there’s no questions from any other section

SSgt baby!. So, not gunna lie, didn't study, but DID buy this app. Im thinking its the good juju from buying it that got me promoted. That, and the 50% selection rate this year. Either way, great app!

Hats off to the developers. This is a great program. Every issue that I had was addressed with an update in under 24 hours. Hats off to the developers! I really enjoy studying with the application.

Great app with annoying problem. Grammatical errors (missing words mostly).

Wanna Promote? GET THIS APP NOW!. Made Staff AND Tech first time using this bad boy. Just go to the Test portion -> ADTC(formerly MKTS) and answer the quizzes one by one. It all pays off. No need to look for other books or apps out there. This is the ONE.

Awesome. I’ve used several different product when it comes to WAPS. Out of all the different products that I used, I’ve scored highest on my PFE portion with this.

US Space Command/ female hair regs. As of 2019, there are currently 11 combatant commands, not 10. The US Space Command is no longer merged with Strategic Command. Also, there have been updates to the dress and appearance standards—no minimum hair length for women.

Chapter 4.14 Needs Updated. According to the most recently published handbook, DAF is comprised of the secretariat, HAF, and HSF. Going through the questions, the “correct answer on the app is HAF and HSF.

Great app. I love this app! It’s definitely worth the money.. it’s so easy to use and is ready at any time. I can study anywhere! The tests are also a great tool to help you for promotion!

Audio. Would be great if I could continue listening when the screen goes into sleep mode. That way I could use it while working out or taking the dog for a walk. I hope you guys fix this soon. I don’t want to have my be dead by the end of my work out because the app requires to be open at all times.

Hate new update. You can no longer take a test of the missed questions , you can only study them and it only shows the correct answer. I liked having all possible answers as it’s more realistic. Has ruined the app for me

Best study material ever. Tested for SMSgt out of cycle, using this app was beyond helpful for my promotion selection. After studying the book and using this app for practice tests, I scored an 82 with 60 days to study. I will never go back to McMillan products.
