They reported issues with the app not providing notifications or auto-booking tests as expected, leading to a feeling that they did not receive the expected value after paying for premium features.

Does not work

Does not work. Even when tests available it doesn’t book them. No notifications either. Complete waste of money - SCAM!

SCAM!

This is absolutely rubbish.
I’ve had this app for over two months and across 3 different test centres it’s offered me zero test dates.
I don’t believe the app works
Please avoid and save your money!!!

Passed with TestShift

Passed with TestShift.
I was giving up hope with this app myself, but all I did was choose a test further in time, and in a remote town. I waited about a week and TestShift found a test for two weeks later. Guess what too? I passed!

It does actually work

So I initially got this app and paid for premium, but only ended up having it for about a day because I got a scared off once I read all the reviews, and assumed it was a scam and wouldn't work.

But like everyone else my test is way too far away and I've been desperate to move it forward. I've tried Testi and the chrome extension and nothing has been working for me, so I figured I'd try Testshift again for longer than a day and see if it does anything for me.

I made sure I had my availability set for what I wanted and selected the autoshift option. To my surprise, my test was moved forward by 37 days today automatically through this app, after only having it redownloaded for about two days. I was a bit worried because a load of tests came up for my preferred time period yesterday evening on Testi, but they did not come up on Testshift, so unsure if I just go lucky today, or if the rumours are true and some of these apps release fake dates.

I'm still hoping to move my test forward again but 37 days is better than nothing, and glad to know the app does actually work and I haven't wasted my money. The autoshift option is amazing. Fingers crossed it works for me again!

Would give it less if I could

Would give it less if I could, purchased app and no notifications despite loads coming through on Testi. If you contact the support team, there is no response. Absolute pile of rubbish and a total scam!

Amazing app

Amazing app! Can't believe the reviews on here! Totally not justified! Always select it to auto shift with your dates, otherwise you won't click the notification quick enough to get it!! I got auto shifted 4x to earlier dates until I then got one the next day!! So happy cannot fault the app at all, have recommend it to everyone 😊

Dont waste your money

Dont waste your money, three weeks and not one single option even though our settings are wide open
EDIT.
Got an auto shift test bought forward 109 days, so it worked.
I guess this is more down to the lack of tests available rather than the app

If there were minus stars they would have had them! Rubbish app. Feel scammed and I would strongly advise anybody looking to AVOID! Do not use this app. It does not work at all despite what I can only assume are fake reviews detailing how wonderful it is!

Would definitely recommend

Would definitely recommend! It is frustrating that you don’t actually see what It is doing as in no prior notice of dates that are available unlike Testi but it has done the job on 2 occasions it’s just unfortunate that my son had the same examiner twice who is well known for being Mr Failure! So we are back in the queue but fair play to Test Shift as they have enabled him to get those two dates way earlier than any other app! Just make sure your settings are set to Auto book and short notice tests! It is definitely worth the money unlike other apps…..

Test shift looks user friendly

Test shift looks user friendly. It doesn't tell you anything with notifications, unlike other apps where you could be away from your phone and then you return and can see what came up. They list the potential dates that were missed.More recently it went down for maintenance. The scanning bar at the top could be less distracting and focus on keeping the simple details. Do not overcomplicate the app design.

Utter scam. Do not pay

Paid for the premium app and had nothing come up despite other sites coming up with cancellations that I wasn't quick enough for. Reloaded app to check it didn't need resetting and since then unable to log back in and saying maintenance. Emailed the site and no one replies. Utter scam.

Would definitely recommend

Tests shift was recommended on another site. I downloaded it after my daughter failed her driving test. We did have another app which seemed to offer alerts all the time but with captures and the "please wait" loading page we never had a chance. Our local test center is booked up literally 5 months in advance. I managed to book a test as a center further away and got testshift. I had a lucky break with testi and managed to get a test close to home and time. Test shift didn't alert at all. I thought I'd just fallen for a scam. My daughters car broke down during her test so we had to rebook. This time test shift did the job. Testi just kept alerting but I wasn't able to get on. Test shift moved her test forward twice and 79 days.

Happy outcome. Would recommend.

I downloaded test shift, paid the premium so it would rebook automatically and have to say, I am very glad that i did.

I waited 3 days, then read negative reviews here and wondered if i had been foolish?

Day 4 i got a notification that my test had been rebooked for a date 3 months before initial test. Needless to say, I’m very happy with outcome.

would recommend paying for the service.
