Evidence checked
Self-serve course versus instructor-connected practice. Compare current price, study content, learning tools and the trade-offs that can actually change your decision.
Our verdict
Theory Test Pro is a particularly good choice when your library or instructor already provides access. Drivings is stronger as a standalone guided course, with full audio chapters, a larger published hazard library and a conditional pass guarantee.

Headline prices can hide billing periods, access limits and the learning tools you will use every day.

Check your library first

Drivings is more structured

| What to compare | Drivings | Theory Test Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Study content | ||
Question bank A cross-category total is not the same as the number available for one licence type, so context matters. | 800+ test-style questions The published UK car bank is mapped to the current syllabus with explanations.[2] | |
Hazard perception Platform-specific libraries should be checked on the device you plan to use. | 100+ real-world clips Timing feedback uses the test’s 0–5 scoring model.[1] | |
Highway Code An online Code is useful for reference; lesson-led study is useful for turning it into a sequence. | Syllabus-mapped lessons Course chapters teach the rules in a guided sequence.[2] | Online Highway Code Theory Test Pro’s library product explicitly includes an online version of the Highway Code.[6] |
Audio support Question read-aloud helps comprehension; full narration supports longer hands-free study. | Full narrated chapters Every chapter is available as end-to-end audio.[1] | Questions read aloud The iOS app can read multiple-choice questions, but full narrated chapters are not advertised.[7] |
| Learning and support | ||
Study planning A plan answers what to do next; analytics mainly answer what has already happened. | Personalised study plan Goals and study preferences are organised into a focused path.[1] | Progress by topic Theory Test Pro shows performance and topics to revise, but does not advertise a personalised learner plan.[4] |
Instructor connection Shared progress can help an ADI connect theory weaknesses to practical lessons. | Learner-managed progress The current consumer plan does not advertise an instructor monitoring dashboard.[1] | Real-time instructor monitoring Instructors can invite students and see study time, progress, strengths and weak areas.[5] |
Mock exams Realistic timing and repeat attempts help learners judge readiness. | Unlimited timed mocks Includes results and missed-question follow-up.[3] | Realistic online simulation The learner product is positioned as a full simulation of the UK theory and hazard tests.[4] |
| Access and value | ||
Where you can study Cross-device access is useful when study switches between home, phone and a shared computer. | Web, iOS and Android The service is designed across web and mobile apps.[1] | |
Offline study A feature should not be treated as included or absent unless the current provider materials make it clear. | Connection required The current learning service loads content online.[1] | |
Learner price The direct app price may be irrelevant if access is already included through a library or instructor. | £69.99/year or £2.99/week Annual includes a 7-day trial; weekly is charged immediately.[1] | |
Learner pass guarantee Marketing outcome claims and contractual money-back guarantees are not the same thing. | Conditional pass-or-refund Requires the specified course and practice completion before the first attempt.[1] | No learner guarantee advertised Theory Test Pro says users are twice as likely to pass, but its learner pages do not advertise a money-back pass guarantee.[4] |
