Description
HamStudy is not your typical study app. Most study apps focus on practice exams, which is like studying for your math test by trying 20% of the questions on repeat. Study smarter with HamStudy. Instead of taking practice tests with random questions over and over, our intelligent Study Mode tracks your progress as you move through the questions—what you’ve seen, what you haven’t, and where you’re struggling—and focuses your study on the questions you need to see most. Full statistics are provided along the way, giving you insight into how many times you’ve gotten a question right or wrong as well as your overall study progress. Don’t worry, you can still take practice exams whenever you want. You won’t find a better tool to use alongside your favorite learning material. Through collaboration with some of the most recognized names in amateur radio, HamStudy allows you to simply choose from a selection of license manuals, then instantly adapts so you can match your study to the chapters, topics, and sections you’re used to†. Want to study just the questions from chapters 4 and 5? No problem. And when a question trips you up, just tap the Explain button to understand what you missed, review formulas, and read helpful study tips. Features: • HamStudy's intelligent study algorithms work with you to ensure you learn the questions, tracking your progress and adjusting the pace to keep you challenged but not frustrated. • Vetted user-submitted explanations help you avoid the pitfall of just memorizing answers. • Infinite practice exams. Fun fact: it takes around 70 practice exams before you’ll see every Technician question just once. Study more, test less! • Study all current US Amateur Radio question pools: Technician, General, and Amateur Extra. Updates are downloaded automatically, and new pools are always included free when they are revised every four years. • English and Spanish translations included for US Amateur Radio pools. • Includes an ever-growing selection of international question pools, such as Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, and Argentina. • Supports multiple users on the same device, each with independent study history. • Sync your progress across all devices and study online with a free hamstudy.org account. • Share your progress with friends, instructors, or other HamStudy.org users and help each other keep progressing towards that next license exam!

User Reviews
Great app. Does what it says except that many of the explanations with mathematical formulas in them display raw markdown instead of rendering the formulas making them nearly impossible to read
Beside from not crashing and having a cohesive color scheme, this app does nothing to help one study for the test. There’s no units corresponding with chapters, nothing to actually aid other than practice exams. Clearly no actual teachers were involved with it’s development
This is a very helpful study tool!
At 67yo I decided to get my HAM license. College dropout with little engineering background or experience other than Life. Use the Study feature and read all the explanations. I also got the Book ( I recommend the Large Print version ) on Amazon. Within a few weeks I was consistently scoring 100% on the practice exams.
Absolutely a fantastic way to study. I knew some information but after using this app for a while I am pretty sure of a great result
I used hamstudy extensively when studying for all 3 classes of exams. Couldn’t have done it without this app.
I bought the Gordon West study guide for technicians license and read that and used the app to study as I went along. The ability to sort the questions based on which study guide you are using is awesome! Once I finished the book and got to 99% apptitude with the app in study mode I then switched to practice tests in the app until I got consistently 95% or higher. I easily passed the actual exam and have now moved on to studying for my general license. The app makes studying so easy. It continues to give you questions you answered incorrectly until you get them right.

Great app functionality, content and organization. Passed my tech exam with only using this app. Now looking at general
I don’t often review apps but this is truly a killer app. The design and layout are perfect; the flash card memory and mechanics helped me pass all three tests in just a couple of months. Just wow.
Once I learned to use it…. Life saver!
Absolutely amazing instructional design. The structure of the interface makes it super easy for you to understand where you're at in your learning experience. The choices made for the content of the Explain tab are nothing short of genius, as is the clarity around concepts worth understanding vs. stuff you just need to memorize. Makes studying fun satisfying, and something you can do whenever you have a minute or two out in the world. Huge thanks to the HamStudy team!
