Can the Subject 1 Test Be Taken on a Mobile Phone?

Subject 1 cannot be taken on a mobile phone; the test format for Subject 1 is computer-based. The total duration of the Subject 1 test is 45 minutes, consisting of 100 questions in the form of true/false and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. The test papers are randomly selected and combined by the computer driver's license examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations." Test Process: Follow the arrangements of the staff and collect your driving school file in order in the waiting area; Carry and present your ID card for inspection by the supervising officer; Mobile phones must be turned off upon entering the test area; No loud noise is allowed in the test area; Regulation textbooks are not allowed in the test area (or must be placed in a bag); After the test, keep your ID card safe and submit the file to the "Document Submission Window" at the front of the test area; Candidates who pass the test will sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit of the test area before leaving; Candidates who fail the test can leave the test area and wait for notification from their driving school staff regarding the retake time.
I got my driver's license last year, and I can tell you clearly that the subject one test cannot be taken on a mobile phone. Apps like 'Driving Test Treasure' are very convenient for daily practice, but the official test must be taken at a designated testing center by the vehicle management office. The testing center is equipped with computers installed with the exam system, and you need to scan your ID card and go through facial recognition on-site to start the test. Mobile phones must be turned off and stored in lockers if brought into the testing center. The main concern is cheating—the computer screens are monitored by cameras throughout the exam, and there are signal jammers. However, using a mobile phone to practice before the test is extremely practical. I even took mock exams while in the bathroom and ended up scoring 97.
As a driving school safety officer, I see students asking this question every day. Using a mobile phone for the subject one test is absolutely not allowed! The exam regulations clearly state: You must use the dedicated exam terminals certified by the Ministry of Public Security. The computers at the test center are equipped with anti-cheating systems that can lock the exam interface and record the entire process. Mobile phones can easily switch screens to look up answers, so they are definitely not permitted. However, it is highly recommended to use mobile apps for mock exams before the test. Apps like 'Driving Test Treasure' and 'Driving School One Point Pass' have question banks that are completely synchronized with the real exam, and they can automatically categorize wrong answers. Students I’ve coached who used mobile apps to practice for two weeks showed significantly higher pass rates.
