ARE 5.0 Architecture Exam Prep Reviews

by McRyach

The main problem with preparing for ARE is misleading information. There are so many resources and most of them are misleading. ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep is not exception. You can’t learn the right answer if all materials answer the question differently. You won’t see the structure and underlying concepts that are at the core all questions at ARE. Instead if you grab a study material without proper evaluation and try to discern a structure and the meaning you will be very frustrated. Do yourself a favor don’t grab WHATEVER material to prepare for your ARE. Instead go to ARE 5 Community forum and read which study materials are proven by your peers and have close proximity to the questions on actual exam. This Flashcards app is a trash. Save yourself time and effort don’t install it.

Spelling errors abound. Misleading test answers. Seriously, it will ask what is indirect expense and one of the answers is literally “indirect expense” but thats not the correct answer.

Maybe I’m the minority on this, but I paid the subscription fee for a year. I have an Xs. From the start, ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep did not function. The text on the cards needs scrolling to view the whole body, and there is no scroll capability. I tried changing the orientation, then I closed ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep , restarted it. Then I deleted it, and re-downloaded it, re-signed in, same issues. I tried contacting ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep developer, and could not easily find a way to contact customer support. In the end, had to have a lengthy chat process with iTunes to get my refund.

This was experience, as of 11/19. Good luck, and I hope it works for you, though other reviews also indicate efficacy issues, so do your homework.

I loved ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep until the recent update to the Apple operating system. I’ve deleted and redownloaded ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep and words are still cut off. I’ve looked at the cards on both my phone and ipad. No matter what orientation the screen, entire sentences are cut off. I emailed support and still have not received an answer. Because of this issue, ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep is 100% worthless.
I did have a friend with an android phone look at ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep and his works fine. All the text is visible. So it seems that the issue is only with Apple products.

Beware if purchasing for iPhone, as ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep still isn’t formatted for the latest iPhone OS.

App doesn’t work anymore. Company has stopped supporting it. Don’t buy.

Useless content. Seems like a trap. they charged me $11 right away while it says there is a 3 days trail!!! Never buy

App doesn’t open in iOS 14. Constantly crashes.

ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep contains only about 60-80 questions for each exam. That’s no where near enough practice questions to study for an exam that has twice that amount. Not enough study material to justify $11.99 a month. Please add more content!!!

Can’t scroll the text in the card, which makes ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep useless.

1 Star and delete.

You can’t read questions at all. Past reviews have mentioned this for sometime and the developer makes a comment regarding this but NO CHANGES. Further, compared to other sources such as designerhacks, the amount of questions are ridiculously low. PPD has 20 questions max. Don’t waste your money.

The new Apple operating system 13+ makes the cards unreadable! ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep is a nice way to pass a few mins when you are on the go and I have a yearly subscription but this developer hasn’t updated ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep in over 9 months. And unless they do something, ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep may become useless. 😢

Nice function of ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep but the content seems to be written by an intern who barely knows proper English and sentence structure and even worse some of the answers are not correct. ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep needs a serious review and edit from someone with better knowledge. Disappointing for the price and I would recommend trying other study guides before using this.

The user interface for the flash cards is awful. The full extents of the question is not visible therefore making ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep useless. I have trying to figure out a way to increase the size of the flash card so I can see the rest of the question and the answer. The scroll function doesn’t work here and rotating the phone screen also doesn’t fix this problem. The support for ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep is quite difficult to find and I just want a refund.

I had been using these flash cards in preparation for the ARE 5.0 exams. Apple pushed another update to the iOS in October 2019, which caused problems with the appearance of the text in ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep. The “glitch” rendered ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep useless, as the text was illegible.

I contacted ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep developer but my comments have apparently fallen in deaf ears. I received a corporate auto-response to my concerns, with no remedy to the issue I had no choice but to cancel my subscription and delete ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep . It appears I’ll complete the six exams before the developer gets around to fixing this useless app.

If ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep doesn’t indicate that it’s been updated within the last year, don’t waste your time and money.

I touched that line when I opened ARE50ArchitectureExamPrep for the first time. I thought it will give me a 3 day trial. Then it directly charged me $13+. I want a refund but seems no way to get the money back. Very back first time experience.

These cards worked great before, but they aren’t formatted for iOS13. Some of the text runs off the screen and there is no way to scroll. I spoke with customer service who said it would be fixed in 2 weeks. That was over 3 weeks ago. I have a test later this week so I’ll be buying study material from another company.
