Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 105 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers found the app to be useless and a complete waste of money, often failing to secure earlier test dates. People frequently reported that by the time they received notifications and clicked through to the official website, the test slots were already gone, leading to frustration and a sense of being ripped off. Reviewers also mentioned issues with the app's functionality, including it hanging, not sending timely alerts, or displaying unavailable test dates. However, some customers also noted that with patience and quick action, they were able to successfully book earlier test dates, sometimes significantly reducing their waiting time. These successful users often emphasized the importance of correct phone settings and being prepared to act immediately when an alert came through.

SCAM AVOID AT ALL COST

This is obviously a scam App, avoid at all cost. My son cancelled his driving test to re book through the App, received confirmation of the new date, turned up for the test only to be told it didn't exist.
Contacted the test centre to be told the original test was cancelled by my son and by the looks of it re booked then promptly cancelled through the App. They advised that some Apps out there are fraudulent and do not recommend using a third party to re book driving tests.
They now have all my sons personal details which begs the question what they will do with that information !.

Absolutely fantastic app!

Absolutely fantastic app which worked exactly as described. You do need to use the extension and you do have to be fast but without it the chances of getting a cancellation are almost impossible. Highly recommended and excellent value for money as if needed, you can use it as many times as necessary until you pass your test.

Found me a test over Driving Scout!

What I liked
1. The app
2. The push noifications
3. The fact it searches for your current test centre (if looking for a cancellation) as well as 3 others. The other app I used only looked for 3 in total, including current test centre.
3. Cheaper than the alternative app I used.
4. Its simplicity - here is a test, now log on and book it! The other app claimed it would fnd me a test within a set of paramaters I chose (unavailable dates, chosen times, days of the week etc.) yet failed to book the same test I got with Testi that fell within my exact paramaters logged on the other app's website.

What I didn't like
1. You have to be FAST! It searches ALL tests - no options to exclude days/times/dates so you have to be organsied and have all excluded dates to hand AT ALL TIMES if you want to jump on a test and book it.
2. You can only refresh once every minute
3. My changed test didn't update in my profile until I logged out and back in again (even when I refreshed it didn't actually refresh!) Not a hge deal as DVSA sent me a confirmation anyway.

Summary
I was booking for my daughter, so was at work and could have the DVSA website open all the time and search for the test centre that Testi flagged had availability and it was easy for me to have the dates my daughter couldn't do to hand.

It worked for us, over another app that claimed it would book the test for me - well it managed to fail to book the one Testi found and this app is cheaper, so for me, Testi wins!

I used it on an iPhone and had safari extension turned on for it. This meant I could get straight to the DVSA website without having to log on each time. As i learned quite quickly this is crucial. I also had push notifications turned on.

The app worked really well for me

The app worked really well for me, had a test booked for end of May (6 months after I failed).

Found a cancellation on Testi on iOS for March, which worked and took me to the official site - all booked, then found another one for yesterday, again booked perfectly 4 weeks ago. I Passed :) so the app has saved me 14 weeks of waiting.

The only comment is that it did not update my new date on the app after the second booking - but I had the official confirmation from DVSA.

Might not work for all, reading the reviews, but worked for me.

The app was helpful with a few adjustments

I used the testi app to find an earlier date in my preferred test center. It is not perfect. Sometimes the dates are gone before I log on, and other times I've had to log on on a different device due to the error 15 code. If you're patient, and willing to make some adjustments like using a different device to log on, it does work.

Avoid this App

I used this app to reschedule my driving appointment, selected a new date and time, and assumed it was confirmed. However, they failed to update the date, and now I’ve lost money because of their mistake. Avoid using this app—reschedule your appointments directly through the government website instead. Now I’m stuck waiting until May to book again. Absolutely useless. 😒

It doesn’t work

It doesn’t work! No pop up notifications, tests not available, flakey Safari integration and often still have to find licence and test details to enter them manually on the DVSA website!
Waste of time since October (3 months).

Do not use this app (even if your driving instructor says so)

Thought this was a good way to try to get an earlier driving test appointment for my son, wrong. Driving instructor recommended this app, wrong.
I paid £12 for the premium version, which the only benefit is that you can add another test centre, which is what we wanted to do. It also asks to put your info in to make it quicker when an alternate test date comes in, and when you click on the date it takes you to the DVSA website where you have to input the info again, to which that date has then gone (if it ever existed). I was also getting the error 15 message too.

Don not use this app, it’s useless.

Update: I went through apple for a refund which I got.

Don’t buy this app

Don’t buy this app. Totally useless notifications come throu and when you go to change no test are available even when app is open and transfers very quickly. I believe that they are fake notifications.
