Why DriveReady NZ

Around 30% of Kiwi teens don’t pass the theory test on their first try. We built DriveReady NZ to make Road Code study feel rewarding instead of a chore — so you can walk into the real exam with confidence, and ideally get it right the first time.

Up-to-date question pool

Our practice questions stay aligned with the latest NZ Road Code, so you’re studying what matters for today’s test — not an outdated booklet.

Learn from every miss

Review mistakes turns wrong answers into your strongest study material — the edge you don’t get from grinding alone.

Distraction-free study

No popup ads. No banner clutter. Just calm focus when you have five minutes on the bus or an hour at home.

No subscriptions

The full core experience is free. If we add Premium later, it will be a simple one-time lifetime purchase — never a monthly plan.

What’s inside

Everything you need to prepare for the Class 1 car learner licence theory test — free to download on iOS and Android.

Current Road Code coverage

Practice across rules, signs, intersections, parking, and emergencies with a question pool kept current with the NZ Road Code.

Mock test simulator

Exam-style mocks help you find out what you know well — and what still needs a little more practice before test day.

Review mistakes

Revisit the questions you miss until they stick. It’s the fastest path from “almost ready” to test-ready.

Levels, XP & streaks

Work through thoughtfully designed levels, keep your streak warm, and celebrate milestones along the way.

Daily Challenge

A clear next step every day — one focused question to keep your study habit alive without feeling overwhelmed.

Gentle analytics show how you’re tracking across topics, so you know when you’re ready to book the real thing.

Works offline

Pick up where you left off even when you’re out of reception — study on your schedule, not the network’s.

100% ad-free

No commercial interruptions. Your attention stays on the Road Code, where it belongs.

Private & lightweight

No account required. Progress stays on your device, so studying stays simple and personal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the questions up to date? +
Yes. Our question pool is kept current with the latest NZ Road Code, and we update content over the air so you’re practising against today’s test — not last year’s booklet.
How does reviewing mistakes help me pass? +
Every wrong answer goes into review mistakes so you can revisit the gaps that trip you up. That’s often the difference between “I’ve practised a lot” and “I’m actually ready.”
I’m passing the mock tests. Am I ready for the real thing? +
If you’re consistently scoring well on our exam-style mocks — and you’ve cleared your review mistakes list — you should feel in great shape. On the day, read carefully and trust your training.
I keep running out of lives while studying. How do I get more? +
Lives refill automatically over time, and you can earn extras through streaks and in-app rewards. Unlimited practice lives will arrive later as part of an optional one-time Premium unlock — never a subscription.
Is my progress saved if I delete the app? +
Progress, XP, and badges are stored on your device. Deleting the app or clearing its data will reset that progress. We don’t use accounts or cloud sync yet, which keeps things private and lightweight.
Do you cover motorcycle or heavy vehicle tests? +
Not yet. DriveReady NZ focuses on the Class 1 car learner licence theory test so we can deliver the best experience for everyday drivers getting their first licence.
Is the app free? Is there a subscription? +
Yes — DriveReady NZ is free to download and use, with no ads and no subscription. Core practice, mocks, and review mistakes are included. Any future Premium extras will be a simple one-time lifetime purchase.
Is Te Reo Māori available in the app? +
Not in the live app yet. We’re building official Road Code te reo support carefully and will enable it when the translation quality meets our standard.
