Why Handy 990
The questions that decide your score — answered.
Everything below ships in the app today.
“Where do I stand right now?”
A free, full seven-part diagnostic estimates your score on the 990 scale and pinpoints your weak Parts — then every practice session keeps refining the estimate and its trend chart.
“Will I run out of questions?”
28,000+ original questions: 10,138 across Parts 1–7 (about 50 full tests) plus 18,051 skill drills, with new items added every quarter.
“Will I actually understand my mistakes?”
Every question has a clear explanation: why the key is right, and where each wrong option tries to trap you.
“What if I can't catch the audio?”
Every listening question has a line-by-line transcript, adjustable pauses and playback speed — plus dedicated US / UK / Australian accent training.
“I'm busy. What should I study?”
Set a target score and Smart Practice builds a daily plan that spends your time where it lifts your score most. Stop anytime, resume where you left off.
“I have the charts. Now what?”
The coaching layer turns data into action: Mission mode lines up today's missions, Today's results shows what moved right after practice, and This week's review names the one thing to do next week.
“I keep forgetting vocabulary.”
Reviews are scheduled by FSRS, the memory algorithm behind next-generation Anki. A quick placement check finds your level, and words you already know can be blocked for good.
“Phrases and grammar keep tripping me up.”
10,114 phrase questions including 1,000+ phrasal verbs, 200 phrase families compared side by side, and 45 grammar lessons with 2,250 matched questions.
“I never last until test day.”
Streaks with protection shields, achievements, daily goals, weekly recaps — and study buddies who see your check-ins and cheer you on.
“Can I study on my commute?”
Designed for one hand from day one. Download the audio once and everything works fully offline — even in a tunnel.
Score diagnostic
Know your score before you book the test.
- Free full diagnostic: one balanced session across all seven Parts returns a 990-scale estimate with Listening and Reading splits.
- The estimate keeps updating after every practice session, with a daily trend chart, so progress is visible.
- Mock tests, two ways: a casual mode for practice — and a Serious mode that mirrors the real exam with spoken directions, fixed answer pacing, and the 75-minute reading countdown.
- Interrupted mid-mock? Your session freezes and resumes at the exact question.
- A daily journal keeps every question you answered, so you can redo any day.
Score engine 2.0
Not just a number — how much to trust it.
- The estimator runs on a proven statistical method — a decayed Beta-Bernoulli posterior. Every answer updates a model of your ability instead of a simple average.
- Scores carry an honest ± range: the more you practice, the tighter it gets, so you know exactly how solid the number is.
- Evidence is weighted by source — serious mocks count double — and after a study break old evidence fades so your comeback shows up faster.
- An “at exam pace” estimate simulates real reading time pressure, surfacing the points that slow-but-correct answers would cost — shown only when speed actually matters.
- The whole method is explained in plain language inside the app. No black box.

Smart practice
A study plan, not just a question pile.
- Enter your target score and exam date; get a daily plan focused on the Parts with the most points to gain.
- A six-skill radar (grammar, vocabulary, inference, detail, main idea, charts) and per-Part 990 analysis show weak spots at a glance.
- Per-question timing tracking catches the answers that are right — but too slow.
- Every miss lands in Mistake Review for one-tap redo, and anything can be flagged “review later” mid-session.
- Set your exam date and the home screen counts down with you.
Your coach
Not just the data — what to do about it.
- Mission mode: a short daily mission list built from your weak spots and the exam countdown — open the app, follow it, and items check themselves off.
- Today's results: right after practicing, see each Part's estimated score move — with the coach's next suggestion.
- This week's review: a weekly summary of which Parts improved or slipped, and the one thing to do next week.
- The Sprint Plan paces you through Foundation, Build-up, and Sprint phases; the mock schedule ends in a full dress rehearsal, and a last-minute review deck appears three days before the test.
- My study journey report: practice volume, accuracy, and your mock-test record — effort and results on one page.
- Strategy walkthroughs for Parts 5–7: interactive lessons that demonstrate solving strategy step by step on real questions.
Vocabulary
Probably the most complete vocabulary trainer in a TOEIC app.
- 3,775 hand-picked TOEIC words, covering the ranges of the mainstream word books.
- Smart review scheduled by FSRS (the next-generation Anki algorithm): words resurface right before you would forget them — with an Infinity mode for sprint days.
- A few-minute placement check pinpoints where your vocabulary actually starts; words you already know get blocked forever.
- Every word is a full dossier: senses with translated examples, an etymology story, roots and affixes, collocations, synonyms and antonyms.
- US / UK / Australian pronunciation for every word — 11,325 clips — plus real-world video pronunciation via YouGlish and KK/IPA notation switching.
- A word starmap lights up one star per mastered word, and your weak words export to a printable PDF.
Phrases & grammar
The training other apps don't bother to build.
- 10,114 phrase questions, including 1,000+ phrasal verbs — the most slippery point source on the test.
- 200 phrase families put look-alikes (come up with / up against / come off…) side by side until they finally stick.
- Phrase builder: assemble each phrase from tiles, so prepositions stop being guesses.
- 45 plain-language grammar lessons, each backed by matched practice from a 2,250-question pool.
