About us
Built by someone who
sat the test.
We built the resource we wished existed — free, focused, and full of the explanations that actually help you understand the material, not just memorise it.
Our mission
Free, forever. No excuses.
The official Home Office Life in the UK test is a £50 hurdle (booked at gov.uk/life-in-the-uk-test) that sits between applicants aged 18–64 and Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR / settlement) or British citizenship. We believe preparation for it should be openly accessible to every resident.
Every practice question, instant explanation, study guide chapter, and 24-question mock exam on our web platform is completely free (£0 forever). No account or registration is required to study or take tests—progress saves automatically in your browser, with an optional free account available if you want to sync bookmarks and scores across devices. Our free web platform is sustained by non-intrusive educational sponsorship and an optional upcoming Pro companion tier.

Our story
From test-taker to test-maker
Like many people, we went through the process of settling in the UK and had to sit the Life in the UK test. What we found was a landscape of paid revision sites, clunky ad-stuffed pages, and confusing practice material that didn't actually help you understand the subject.
So we built this — a clean, fast, mobile-friendly platform with questions that match the real test's style, clear explanations that stick, and a study guide that walks you through all five official 3rd edition handbook chapters topic by topic.
We're based in London. We're passionate about making the UK citizenship journey a little less daunting. And we believe access to quality study material shouldn't depend on how much money you have.
The team
Small team. Big mission.
We're a lean team of developers and educators. Questions are written by people who understand both the official handbook and what actually appears in the real test.
