How to choose a permit test app

A buyer’s checklist

Choosing a permit test app is a purchase like any other. Read the details before you pay. These questions help you compare apps without rushing.

• Does it cover your state, or only general questions?
• Where do the questions come from? Do the answers explain the rule?
• Is the price one-time, or a subscription that renews? If it renews, find out how to cancel.
• Does it offer a pass guarantee? Read the conditions.
• Does it show ads?
• What does it do with your data?
• Does it say when it was last updated?

State laws, not only signs

There is no national permit test. Each state writes its own test from its driver handbook. Road signs follow the national MUTCD.

That means a good app covers your state’s laws, not only signs. Signs are shared, but the rest of the test is set by your state.

Drivoku

The US web shows 45 of our 379 checked bank questions, with one free full mock and a 25-question general sample. The Drivoku app has all 379 questions.

Drivoku offers practice on common road rules and a dedicated Texas question pack.

Its questions are its own. They are drafted with AI help from the MUTCD, NHTSA and Texas law, and checked against those sources. They are not reviewed by a driving instructor or any state agency.

Drivoku’s live quiz in the app is free. Drivoku Pro is a one-time $9.99, no subscription. The store shows the price before you buy, so the price is clear before you pay. Pro brings back the questions you got wrong until you get them right, lets you practice every topic as much as you want and gives you as many practice tests as you want.

For parents of teens in Texas

If you are considering parent-taught driver education, check whether the app fits it. Drivoku is practice, not a course. It does not take the place of parent-taught driver education, so check what your program requires before you choose practice materials.
