This app is a must-have for anyone taking the ccsp. Many questions with thorough explanations for each. Also has a helpful glossary and acronym reference. The only thing that would make it better is if you could see the answers to questions as you go. As it is, you need to trek through 100+ questions to see what you got right/wrong and why. Otherwise, app is worth it and recommended
This app needs to have the option to choose all test practice/exam to have an instant answer as you go through the questions. Some people are impatient and should have that option.
I have just started using this app, using several test practice apps in the past I have found the bookmark feature good, acronyms, glossary make finding answers quickly. Well written I like what I am seeing. Thanks for the efforts - looks good.
Think the questions are similar to what you have on the test. Luv you can customize the number of questions you can do, bookmarks, flash cards. Its well worth getting.
I just failed the CCSP because of this App. This app’s question bank does NOT match what you need to know for the test. Not kidding! Questions and answers in the test bank for this app don’t match, example: a question will have an answer and then later on almost the same exact question will have a completely different answer… nuts! So which one is it!? Completely undermines your understanding! They updated the database last week adding 1,000 questions and I took the test this morning and was super disappointed to see the materials not matching up. Note I have the CCSK V4 certificate and passed last mont and also the CISSP, passed both on the first try no problem.
I used this app extensively to prepare for the CCSP exam, and it was a huge help. Having the app on the phone made it really convenient to take quizzes and test from anywhere. I highly recommend this app!
Writing this review after completing 3/4 of a 2h practice test… If you swipe two fingers from left edge to center, you will go “back” to the main menu, destroying the test attempt with no option for recovery…I learned this the hard way. Epic fail! For a premium priced app, this is inexcusable. Come on ICS2, get your $#!T together!
I used this app to study for my CCSP and I passed. Enough said. The explanations are clear, and the tests are helpful. However, Use this app as a supplement to your studying, do not heavily rely upon it.
It installs on the iPhone 15 but after going through the intro screens, it just closes out. I wanted this cause I already have my CISSP and was looking into the CCSP but at least on the full app (SSCP, CISSP, and CCSP) it opens. I would just not rather pay for ALL when I need just ONE.
The actual exam questions is no way close to the content of these questions. It is completely misleading. Not certain if it ISC2 outline of exam or if this vendor questions and study aide is out of date.
Update: NOT A Great prep tool with some things that need to change IMHO
Update. Didn't pass. The questions are not even close to what's in the exam. I cancelled my subscription. Overall, this is a great and very helpful app. Here are some things I think should change: 1) When doing a quick set of 10 questions, add an option to “answer a question and move on” or “show me whether I was right or wrong immediately after answering”. 2) The CCSP exam is now 150 questions and 4 hours long. This needs to be reflected in the app. 3) At the end of a test, give an option to save all the wrong answers I provided into a pool of sorts, and then give an option to create a test just from this pool of previously-answered-incorrectly list. 4) Give the option to stop the timer. I understand that this makes the exam not like it is in real life. Come to think about it, all testing options in the app should have the option to have or not to have a timer. 5) I didn’t take the exam yet, so I don’t know, but can you even move forward to the next question without providing any answer at all for each particular question? Because if in the real exam you can’t move forward without providing an answer, then it should be the same in the app, right? I have moved forward several times in the app without answering a question, and I have no clue how it happened. 6) It would be great to store all my past tests and be able to get back to them. Right now, as soon as I’m done with a test, I can review it but when I’m moving back to the home screen the test results are gone forever. I often find myself wondering what answer I gave to a specific question. This will allow me to see that I am consistently giving the same answer to a question, or not. 7) The pricing model is odd. As soon as I pass I will cancel the subscription. Why not offer a one-time purchase option? 8) I think that an immediate indication whether you answered a question correctly would be great. The percentage of my score showing (and changing based on my answers) will be great as well. That way I could start a test, and if I get interrupted, I could at least see that “had I stopped the test now, I would’ve gotten a passing score.” I understand that it’s not a real-life scenario, but could aid in situation you abruptly have to end a test while you’re studying. At least you’ll know if you are doing well or not. That’s it for now :)
