Driving test apps

[youarntaguest]

Hi could anyone help me please. I am trying to book driving tests for my 2 daughters but there arnt any available to book due to a backlog from Covid and lack of examiners. I have been told about apps that do a search for cancellations automatically and book the test for you Has anyone used these apps ? I'm a bit unsure as the fee is 18 pounds each I don't want to waste the money if it's no good. I have been logging on to the government booking system every day but it's becoming quiet tedious !!!! Thanks

My DS used one last year, it was around £18, unfortunately I don't recall the name of it. But it was brilliant and well worth the money. He did have a test booked for January, and this was August. He ended up with one at the beginning of September. It would update with a new one every day or so for him. We also live in a rural area where tests were only 2 days a week, with one instructor, so not loads of opportunities for one to become available like in bigger test centres.

Driving test now. I had to book any test available so ended up with one in Hull, then you get the app and select up to three test centres you actually want and a selection of dates you actually want and it will automatically book it for you if a cancellation comes up.

For reference I had to book Hull because it was the only one I could fine. I live in the south east. I got a cancellation within two weeks of downloading the app. Test next month

Ah thanks very much I will go ahead with buying the app then.

Another recommendation for the Driving Test Now app. My dd1 failed her first driving test in August and managed to get a driving test cancellation auto booked through the app a fortnight later and passed second time last week. She originally had to book her second test in January, so well worth the money. Good luck to your daughters!
