The synchronization is available across all our products. It is provided through our server, so when you use different devices to access our question database, please make sure you run the synchronization between the device and server at the end of each session and again at the beginning of each session.
Example: Let's say you finish your daily tasks on your iPad – sync the iPad to upload all your testing history to our web page. The next day, you start on your iPhone – sync the iPhone to download all the testing history from the web page to your iPhone so you can pick up where you left off on your iPad the day before. Once you finish on your iPhone, sync it again to upload all the data to the web page. If you switch to your iPad or any other device, sync it to download everything from the web page to the respective device, and so on.
Yes, all content updates are free for users with valid subscription. Anyhow, it is essential to run the synchronization with our server to download the updates.
You can use our iOS app on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, but it is essential to use it under one account. Required version of iOS is 8.0 or later.
Reading the books and running tests is available offline. Anyhow, some specific features (log in/ log out, sending support messages, view user’s comments and search for questions according to text) and of course downloading the updates and sync require internet connection. It is required to sync the app at least once a month.
Yes, the content (questions, explanations, picture supplements) are the same for all our products (online system, iOS app, OS X app, Android app and Win app).
Because we are the best :-)
Anyhow, the main advantages of our app among other similar products are:
- Frequent, regular updates and maintenance of our database.
- Explanations for all EASA test prep questions.
- High quality of picture supplements.
- Possibility of using online system together with the apps, which do not need the instant connection to internet (iOS, OS X, Android and Win app).
- Synchronization between all platforms.
In case you would like to start from the beginning, you can reset your progress of a certain subject (or several - that is up to you). This way the system would behave as if you have never seen any of the questions from a chosen subject before. Then the system would again mark questions as incorrectly answered until you answer them correctly at least once. A reset will not influence your flags - they will remain.
To reset your progress through an application please go to:
Dashboard - Reports - Progress: display the progress according to your criteria and swipe the respective bar from the right edge to the left and tap on the reset button.
Make sure you synchronise all your devices after you reset the progress so that the change can apply on all your devices as well.
You can still display your original progress from the last reset or from the beginning of times (from the time you started studying with Aviationexam) - Dashboard - Reports Progress - Show progress from last reset option.
Online Test Prep System and applications (iOS, OS X, Android, Win) include advanced functions that allow users to gradually cover the entire set of available questions for a specific subject and a specific testing competency level. You can use the STUDY mode for your practice tests. Use EXAM mode in order to simulate the official exam.
For each new test in STUDY mode, the system analyses your complete testing history and flags. The new test is generated according to your flags + questions, which you haven't seen before are added on the top to complete your request for the selected number of tests. This unique function will make sure that after some time you cover ALL questions in each subject. You can also use advanced settings in order to generate test according to your preferences:
- use unseen questions only
- re-test incorrectly answered questions
- use questions marked as “for review”
Note: For a more detailed description of the test modes see the topic “What are the differences between STUDY and EXAM mode”.
IMPORTANT !!!
If you wish to cover the entire database of questions for each subject area in STUDY mode, do not delete your completed tests (do not reset your progress). If you delete your completed tests, our server will have nothing to analyze and you will start from the beginning.

STUDY MODE
This mode is intended for study purposes. What does that mean in practice?
Apart from the subject and level, you can also choose specific subject areas for your test. You can go through explanations, which are available for each Aviationexam question (EASA test prep), write personal notes or engage in the comments discussion.
There is no time or question limit for a study test. You can also save it and come back to it later.
During the study test, the correct answer is displayed immediately after you select your answer choice (this can be changed in settings). You can mark questions with pin, so you can easily find them before finishing test. Another possibility is to mark the questions as "for review” or with flags (show 1x in next test, keep testing, do not test).
When generating a new test in STUDY mode, all the tests you have already finished are analysed. For this reason it is recommended to create tests with lesser number of questions and finish those tests, rather than save a test with hundreds of questions.
The system is designed to primarily supply you with questions that you have not seen and the questions that you answered incorrectly (by default). It is to ensure that you go through all available questions and help you go through the mistakes.
Nonetheless, you can also take advantage of the following settings (all explained in the “i” next to the toggle button in Test section):
In case you have flagged some questions, the system will generate a test with respect to those flags ("keep testing” + "show 1x in next test”). Questions flagged with “do not test” and marked as “for review” (see below) will not be used.
Note: If you have e.g. 20 questions flagged and you want to have a test with 30 questions, the extra 10 questions will be questions you have not seen before, answered incorrectly or random. (Unseen > incorrect > random)
The system will generate the test with questions, which you have not seen before. If the test cannot be generated, you have seen all questions. When new questions are added to the database, they will be unseen.
Note: If you do not see any unseen questions and your progress is not 100%, please click here.
The system will generate the test with questions, which were answered incorrectly in the past. An incorrect question is a question that has never been answered correctly by you. In case you have answered the question correctly at least once, it will no longer be marked as incorrectly answered.
The system will generate a test with questions marked as “for review”. If the test cannot be generated, you have no questions marked as For Review. Please note For Review is a separate parameter to the flags mentioned above.
Note: To fully benefit from the settings and flags, make sure you sync the applications often. Having testing history and flags synchronised is essential for starting a new test. Also, as mentioned above, keep in mind that only finished tests (ones that are NOT saved) are reflected in the statistics.
EXAM MODE
This mode simulates the official written exam along with the same settings and features that await you when you sit the real exam. You are not allowed to change the pre-set number of questions nor the time limit (both of these values are pre-set to comply with the parameters of the official written exam for each given subject). Exam grading and display of correct answers takes place at the end of the exam test. Test in exam mode can not be saved. The strategy for exam tests is to cover all areas. It means that a test always contains some questions from each area (with ratio to respect count of questions in a particular area). Also, please note that the EXAM mode disregards your flag settings - if you wish to have a test according to your flag preferences, please create a test in the STUDY mode.
DIFFICULT QUESTIONS
Did you know that you can also create a test with questions that are difficult for you? To do so, please see the section Questions -> Difficult -> Choose a subject and the option to start a test with difficult questions will appear.
USERS WITHOUT A VALID SUBSCRIPTION
Only 5% of questions from each subject are available for users without registration and valid subscription. Registration is required in order to purchase the subscription. User without a valid subscription can make the unlimited number of tests, but they will see only 5% of questions from our database.
The app requires synchronization with our server at least once a month, in order to verify the subscription. Simply synchronize the software. You do not need to download updated questions and pictures. The verification process is short and does not require a transfer of too much data. It can be run from any internet cafe, public networks, phone etc.
In case you forget to synchronize the software once a month in order to verify the subscription, the subscription will turn inactive. However, with the next sync, it will become active again (if you have a valid subscription purchased through our eShop or App Store or Google Play).
Saved tests can be saved on one place only. It is only possible to move them through sync.
For example:
You have saved test at your iPad and you wish to move it to the web page: sync the iPad app and tick the option "move my saved test from this device to cloud". The saved test will be moved from the iPad to the online system and you will be able to continue with this test at the web page.
When you have the test saved at the web page, you can move it back to your iPad or to any other Aviation Exam app. Simply sync the app on your device where do you wish to move the test (iOS, OS X, Android, Win) and tick the option "move my saved tests from cloud to this device". The test will be moved from the web page to the device.
This way you can move the saved test from one device to another.

What you see in the progress section is questions covered = questions that you answered correctly at least once (seeing them does not influence it, they need to be answered correctly).
In order to cover all questions, please use the option "incorrectly answered" in Study test settings. Once you go through those questions and answer them correctly at least once, they will be considered as covered.
If there are no questions with the settings "unseen questions" it means that you have seen all questions but it does not mean you covered them (=answered correctly)
