Description
Brought to you by the same team who pioneered remote ham radio exams in the United States and Sponsored by Icom, HamStudy is driven by the same backend database and so the question pools are *always* up to date. When changes are made or new pools released they will be available on the pool list screen of the app if you are connected to the Internet.
This app does not require an active internet connection to use, but when you have one it will sync your progress with the HamStudy.org website and download updates for all content.
HamStudy is a question pool based study tool designed to supplement your existing study methods, whatever they may be! HamStudy is not designed to be a full instructional tool but you can learn a surprising amount with the included explanations for all questions, courtesy of our many wonderful users!
Designed and written by hams with volunteer examiner experience and Sponsored by Icom, this is not your typical study app -- most study apps will focus on practice exams, which is somewhat like studying for your math test by throwing darts at your textbook. HamStudy is focussed on providing you with the tools you need to study the parts of the question pool that you most need to see.
Our intelligent Study Mode tracks your progress as you move through the pool, providing you with full statistics on what you've seen and giving you the visibility into where you need to study. It will automatically repeat questions as needed. When you don't understand something you can tap the "explain" button to view an explanation of the question. Practice Exams make it easy to see how close you are to passing and see what areas to focus on in Study Mode.
Share your progress with your friends or instructor and study together!
* Study *all* current US Amateur Radio question pools (Technician, General, Amateur Extra) -- updates can be downloaded for free when they become available. Additional pools, such as the FCC commercial pools and several international pools, are also available for download in the app. For a full list go to https://hamstudy.org and click the "other" dropdown.
* HamStudy's revolutionary Study Modes work with you to ensure you learn the questions; they automatically track your progress and adjust the pace to keep you challenged but not frustrated. User-submitted explanations help you avoid the pitfall of just memorizing answers. Synchronize with your online HamStudy.org account to prevent data loss and be able to switch devices easily.
* Share your progress with other HamStudy.org users and help each other keep progressing towards that next license exam!

- Updated to have the new 2022 tech question pool on install, instead of needing to download it after installing.
- Unfortunately you may lose your data when upgrading to this version -- make sure you've synced to a hamstudy.org account before installing! We apologize but were unable to fix the problem in a better way.
- Data access and storage is faster, which should result in a faster app
- Facebook login support has been removed due to changes to their ToS which required us every two months to prove once again through a tedious process that we weren't selling anyone's data.

- Added a much-requested feature, the ability to show only the questions you missed when reviewing practice exam results.

trahniews,
I aced my General Exam because of HamStudy
I had previously used another app to study for the Tech exam and I got two wrong. I couldn’t understand how that could happen because I had memorized everything. As I studied for the General using the same app I started realizing a few of the answers were WRONG. Typos were everywhere in the study sections and practice test sections, and then I found on one question that the answer in both A and C were identical. I paid for HamStudy and don’t regret it one bit. I got 100% on my General exam and that was the best 30-some-odd-bucks I could have spent. Don’t waste your time on a free program with errors. If you are struggling through a test and you answer questions with “wrong” answers, not because you didn’t study hard enough but because you studied to perfection and memorized incorrect answers, that is just cruel and unusual punishment. Pay the bucks, get the right answers and pass your exam the first time.
Jason A A,
The best $4 you can spend to go from Tech to Extra
I just sat for my exams yesterday. I took all 3 in one sitting. I passed them all; in fact, my highest score was on the Extra, 92%. I started by using the free online version and found it extremely helpful. But then I decided to spend a few dollars to get the app on my phone. I found that I had a lot of free time when I was away from home, away from the computer, so I knew that this app could help me to study when I had free time to spare. The great thing about using the free online version along with this app is that it syncs your progress between both platforms. My background, I have no experience in engineering, and I would rate my math skills as being just average. If you are planning to get licensed, do not stop with just the technician and/or the general license. With this app, you can go from 0 to Extra if you are willing to put in the time and effort.
sswSeattle,
Excellent: Quick thorough study
Bought this app b/c thirty days to study and pass test. Easy to use, feedback loop makes its use addictive and fun. Most importantly, the explanations enable one to understand how to arrive at the answer using one’s own reasoning (vs. rote learning of Q&A). And the explanations are written by people. I feel as though behind each one is a grizzled Ham operator with their hand on my shoulder, drawing me a picture even I can understand. One answer actually points out that the question omits a key element that would enable reasoning one’s way to the answer. Another tells you that 80% of students get this question wrong because they fail to look at key information supplied in the multiple choice answers.
Doing the test portion is great: progress is tracked, and you are given the option of studying only questions in the sections in which you scored lowest.

WriterNV,
I only used this app ... and passed
This app and the material in it works. I only used this app to study, and I just passed my technician test. I studied for one week, and I took a day off here and there. I did the review for a few hours at first before taking the practice exams, then mostly took the exams again and again. I took the real exam online, and it was exactly like the practice exams in the way the questions appeared, how you choose them, and moving on to the next question. Honestly, the online checks from the volunteer examiners took longer than the actual exam. I took maybe 12 minutes to finish the exam, and my comfort level was purely from using this app. It was well worth the small purchase price
Jty1000,
Most efficient way to prep for all levels…especially Extra
Used the HamStudy app for all tests, got perfect scores on the Tech and General, and missed only one question on the Extra. I’d recommend actually learning all material for the Tech and General with the ARRL books (in addition to using this fantastic app) as most of the material is directly applicable to the everyday operation of the radio. But the Extra is more like a bar exam, full of largely useless information. For the Extra, I simply drilled one element a day for several weeks with this app, never, ever looking at the wrong answers/distractors and used no other resources to prepare. Excellent, non-glitchy interface. Highly recommended.

BUY THIS APP! If you want to get licensed
I recently decided to get my amateur radio license and ordered books to study. I normally like to read physical books so I can highlight and make notes in the margins. While waiting on the books to arrive I found Hamstudy and liked the way it worked so I bought the app. By the time the books arrived I realized that Hamstudy was all I needed. I originally planned to get just the Technician level but with COVID and the difficulty I had finding an exam session I had time to study for the others as well while waiting for my test date.
I passed all 3 tests in one session and other than an occasional Wikipedia search I exclusively used this app and their website to study. I cannot find a high enough rating for this app. It’s all you need!
I highly recommend clicking the corner of each question and reading the explanations. Sometimes they are quite technical and lengthy and other times they just offer hints and tips for remembering the correct answer but always helpful.
Great App Hamstudy! Thanks for helping me get my ticket!

Best App by Far!
I used multiple purchased apps to study for my General, then once i become proficient started working on my Extra before taking the General test. I downloaded HamStudy to study for the Extra class license and after using it for a couple weeks decided to go back and go through the General on HamStudy because I found the study methods so much more effective and wanted to increase my proficiency even further. I wish I had started with HamStudy it’s such an excellent well designed app and study tool. I am now ready to pass both exams once testing sessions are being offered again in my area. The app will help you get up to speed to pass your test(s) in the most efficient way.
teddywjohnson,
Passed every exam!
There’s no reason anyone should fail a Amateur Radio Exam if you study using this app. I passed my Technician & General both during one sitting and went back later and passed my Extra. It was all due to this app. The app has a sense of intelligence, drilling down on the material that it finds you are struggling with. The study mode and practice exams really help prepare you for the actual exam. The “explain” tab that shows up on questions missed in study mode provides explanations and hints to help you remember the correct answers. If you put forth the effort and use this app, you will pass! Hands down the best app to prepare for the Amateur Radio exams!

Get your ticket
If your reading this you already on the right path. For a very long time I wanted to get into ham radio. But I never did. Life got in the way. But here I am at 50 years old and ready to go. So on the advice from a friend I bought the app and dived in. I jumped straight into a Technician test. Scored an 18. :(. Terrible!! In my free time I would go into a sample exam and see how I did. I got better and better answering the questions correctly. I never did use the study section. So today I scheduled a test and off I went. I had about 10 hours of study in. I got 31 out of 35 correct!!!!! It works!!
Sarge728,
Awesome app!
This app does an excellent job of running you through the questions pool. If you get a question wrong, it tells you the correct answer and offers an explanation. It will cycle the questions that you got wrong back into the mix until you get them correct a few times. After using this for a while, it suggested focusing on my weak points, which I did. This app, alongside of the ARRL study book, made passing my technician class test much easier. I will be using this to study for the General class test. You will not regret paying a few $ for this app.
