So far, the app handles well, lives up to it's description and looks very well constructed. They seem to use musical tones as negative and positive feedback which is sort of pavlovian, but I do like it. The difficulty also changes as you become better at the challenges, if you were wondering if it was an automatic scaling. Overall I really enjoy the app and would recommend it to people that are struggling with memory or keeping pace in a conversation.

It is not worth playing. Not enough time to complete problems. Otherwise, it is good. Need more time to practice & get better. Please give me 'skip' option when I'm stuck on a problem but don't force me to the next one. I'm okay with my round score being bad ... just want to actually get to finish the problems I'm struggling with. The challenge would be fun that way. This way it is so frustrating & makes me feel like i can't improve. This could be a 'special needs' feature, toggled in Settings

Hello, NeuroNation Brain! I downloaded the app and was going to purchase the Premium, when I saw that we have to pay for a full year in advance, even though it tells you the monthly amount. I think you should have both options available. Full year and montlhy. I Iove the app and can already tell that it is going to help me, but sometimes what may seem inexpensive to some, might be a stretch to others. Let me know if the option of paying monthly ever becomes available. Thanks!

I was eager to try out this application, but this is not a fair or balanced measurement or training of the mind. For instance, a time limit is imbued on most of the problems, and the answers are multiple choice. However, they will inadvertedly flip around, change, or sometimes, even the displayed answer would be wrong. Additionally, most of the problems after the introduction stage become increasingly lacklustre and vague to which makes some answers impossible to deduce. I would not recommend.

Awesome! I know it's working on improving my brain because I got a concussion and I can definitely feel the challenge and improvement with the exercises in the app. The exercises and app are well designed, good user experience, cute and fun design, and positively rewarding sounds. It gives good examples and explanations and directions are easy to follow. Thank you, thank you, thank you, guys for a good experience and actually providing a great variety of exercises in the free version!

The games seem to be scientifically derived, but the game that has one choose color or meaning NEEDS an upgrade. My eyesight is good and specifically for color recognition. The game has several colors that are so close in hue that they are virtually undetectable on my "cheap" phone. For example, there are 3 shades of blue that are easily confused. I've changed the settings on my phone for contrast twice. They make a significant difference in every other app and on the main screens, but don't incr

Enjoy the challenges to stimulate my brain. However, I didn't like every time I went to play every 1 of the challenge's given, it flash's an ad to sign up to the premium for either $15.99 a month, unless you sign up for a year for a discount. Sorry, but even though they give you the discount of $48. a year, which is $4.00 a month. STILL, IT TOO MUCH especially for us Seniors CITIZENS p Pp, (who BTW, are the 1's that are going 2B using an app like this.

Two big flaws: 1. The evaluation test is a poor judge of ability. Many of the exercises took a few tries before I could understand what it was asking. Once I understood the "ask" , I scored 100% accuracy. The instructions weren't clear. Having a practice screen before doing the real test would be a better indicator. 2. The app refuses to mute. I turned my phone on silent and had audio on silent. To my horror, it started loudly narrating a scenario. PLEASE FIX THIS. It woke my fiance up. Not ok.

Interesting experience. Only have 20 minutes or so. Can definitely feel my brain working and getting tired as I do the exercises. The English seems to be British, and as an American, this can be a little confusing. For example, on some word exercises, you are supposed to generate a word from a list of letters. On occasion, the word suggested was a letter not in the American lexicon. "Addy," for example. Not a phrase I have ever heard in conversation. Also, the English is obviously translated.

I've only been playing the games for about a week and already noticing large jumps in areas I thought I was strong and inclined in while also making slower progress in things I tend to struggle with. The games are not hard to learn but are very challenging if you're at a level in which you need to improve to pass. I love this app and will continue to use to train my brain to get better at many things I'm not great at.

This has been pretty good so far and I've noticed a difference in my mental processing speed, however, at least one of the puzzles (Solitaria) at Level 9 and onward either changes the rules without telling you / explaining the new rules or the system starts being wrong. A little frustrating. As others have mentioned, some puzzles will take the problem away from you after a *short* time and not tell you the correct answer, which feels quite unhelpful for learning how to do the puzzles properly.

I like this app because it has short exercises/training sessions to complete that are challenging yet easy enough. The difficulty increases as you progress thru the levels but checks in with you if it is increasing too fast. You can play a round or complete a whole training session in 10-15min. If you need to leave the session, it holds your place for next time. Another bonus, you can pick and choose what you want to do. App is designed very well.

This app used to be awesome, but the lastest changes have left me disappointed. I won't lie; I've only ever used the free version. But, even that used to be great. The tasks felt frustrating, but clearly worked (my focus actually improved). Now, I feel completely unchallenged. I would prefer having to watch ads over doing these boring, repetitive exercises. I might check in around a year from now and see if things have changed, but for now I'm probably going to get rid of it.

Yeah, I can already tell that the puzzles are not just a quick draw to find something random it is bringing my attention to other parts of the brain while maintaining on the presupposed focus. Timing is , of course, it allows for more efficient thinking not allowing distraction to get a grip. Not sure if I'm making sense here. Second COVID bout just left hospital but it literally is spinning my brain. Thanks cause I can't pay right now but I will as soon my brain turns back on.

I've had multiple memory apps but this is the only one without excessive ads for the non subscription people like me. I really love it. Also if you are okay with subscriptions it's actually a fair price not any of the outlandish more than 100 bucks a year apps. But anyways really good app for memory and it's fun too. I just dont like that I have to skip some exercises due to no membership but I get it. Still good memory games tho.

Like it a lot actually. I do feel sharper when I regularly use the app vs. not having done it for a while. I appreciate the "for free"option and that the ads are not long and/or obnoxious at all in my experience! It's also nice to be able to adjust the complexity of an exercise and that I am regularly asked what I like or do not like. Many times after I've given the correct response, I'm still marked wrong. (Usually during the exercise that needs a tap on screen after symbol/sound...boo!)

I like this app so far I am on the free version so I'm just getting the free training I don't have much to say about the premium version. But the training that I've experienced so far I can see that it would improve my mind or brain however you want to say that. It allows you to set a schedule and goals which is cool. It also remind you about those goals and the schedule that you set. I haven't ran into any bugs or the program or app not wanting to work correctly so that's a plus. I recommend.

The games get a little repetitive here, and there, but the fact that you can just keep playing as much as you want, and you continue to advance. And there's not really any big ads that you can't skip in less than five seconds is a big upside. I play a lot of these Brain training games. And this is probably one of my favorites. This and MemoryOS is a great one.

I'm working on my memory and cognitive skills after having a stroke/starting new medications. I would love if the app had a monthly subscription option. I would be able to fit it into my budget. I'll need to save for several months in order to get the premium version. Devs, in this economy, this option could help increase subscribers

I love this app! The traing I've done relates to real life situatios that can be easily applied to your life There are written directions plus an actual example of how each exercise works. I experience brain fog and memory issues due to health problems from multiple things. The more I use NeuroNation-BrainTraining, the more confidence I have in myself. Due to financial struggles I am currently only using the sample and I cannot wait to subscribe to the full package and see how far it takes me.
