Reviews for NeuroNation – Brain Training

Seems pretty good. Wish ads were an option instead of subscription. But, I find it almost hilarious that you guys think everyone interested will do it on a schedule. I put in the reminders because it forces you to in order to continue then disabled the notifications. The whole point of apps is that they're used at my convenience. It's why streaming services are quickly becoming more popular than cable/broadcast. Not saying no one will do it, but have an option for whenever.

It's got potential but I came across several programming flaws and decided it was just more irritating than the time I might spend using the app. A case in point is where you are to choose the "Pink" box which is 4 but the number doesn't matter and everytime it will come back incorrect. It wants you apparently to touch the Red 2 instead. Others in this exercise work with a glitch here or there but that one is always wrong. There are others but that one was easy to use as an example.

Not a bug fan of the updated version. Where's the world games? Or the star game where you have to avoid the asteroid thingys? Or the color game with the trampolines? All my favorite ones have been taken away and you can't choose what games you want. Plus, the training exercises will have the same exercise 2 or 3 times in one session. Not digging it.... might have to cancel my subscription.

This app is great! I have a terrible working memory, and I can see it improving. It's also a great way to transition between working on one subject to another, like a palette cleanser. I wish there was an option to not see the "comparison to peer group" at the end of an exercise; I'm doing this for self improvement, not competition, and it can feel really bad when I score relatively poorly, even if it's a new high score for me. 10/2022 Update: comparison still there. Getting irritated.

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

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.

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.

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.
