BrainHQ for Positive User Reviews
✓ Personal trainer for your brainGreat news for people with sub-clinical (and clinical) neurological processing issues. Objective and creative with emerging science backing. Works best with a brain personal trainer to direct your training..Version: 5.4
✓ Really challengingI installed it yesterday. Really challenging! Must have..Version: 1.0
✓ Keep on trying!I had a small stroke a month ago, and they said I should try this site that is used by our town’s Senior classes. I’m amazed how hard some skills are, but I am grateful to have this. I know they are touching skills I need; I know I’ll be stronger. Lots of people keep coming to the class each year; I think I’ll use it for a long time!.Version: 6.11
✓ Great - “The medium is the message” - these games are the VERY BEST!Simply “The BEST!”!.Version: 6.11
✓ Brain HQGreat fun and good for the brain!.Version: 7.9
✓ Referred by Brain Healing BookRead about this program (app) in a book on Neuroplasticity. "The Brain's Way of Healing" Dr. Norman Doidge. Finding it a bit more of a challenge because I'm red/green coloured blind and this makes it more difficult to process the images and remember the differences when colour is a significant part of the different symbols used. Will temper my performance expectations accordingly and keep at it..Version: 3.4
✓ Great appWhen I first used this app which is daily I felt like I needed a nap afterward. At 77 I have been using brain apps for over a year and a half and still use several every morning. I started this one a couple months ago after reading that Tom Brady uses it daily. I do the sports program and I think it is awesome. Frustrating yes, challenging yes, but certainly effective. If it helps Tom Brady it can certainly help me..Version: 7.1
✓ Excellent AppExcellent App enabling short and long term memory skills with plenty of variety over the week..Version: 7.13
✓ TBIThere is more to the picture then meets the eye...that explains a TBI! This amazing app makes my brain relearn and learn! It is proofs the brain can heal from a Traumatic Brain Injury! Thanks.Version: 5.6
✓ Challenging but....While I feel challenged with most of the daily HQ tests, at least 1 of 4 directions just aren’t clear. Most of my results fall within 65-80% of my age group so I’m not all that dense. Random answers are obviously going to give poor results so I hope the designers review such outliers and take it upon themselves to clarify the required answers for the particular quiz. Also, auditory challenges that entail silly, teenage-type conversations/interchanges I find so dumb I simply block them out no matter how hard I try to focus. I reported it but got an equally generic/canned response. Most people taking these brain challenging tests are way beyond teenage and pre-teen conversations and our brains have become more tuned to adult interchanges. Too much of that and most of us older quiz takers will simply drop the app..Version: 7.7
✓ Not knowingI have never played this game I’m excited to now start.Version: 6.7
✓ Good appI really like this app. It's a nice alternative to typical game apps..Version: 3.2
✓ The bestI’ve tried most of the leading brain training apps but this one really stands out for me. The tasks are well thought out and presented. The way that the difficulty level is constantly changed to match my performance seems to work well. There’s always a sufficient level of challenge without going beyond my level of competence for too long. That probably explains why I haven’t yet become bored or frustrated as I have with other apps..Version: 7.9
✓ Free version is so far greatGet access to a good number of games and they are challenging enough..Version: 3.4
✓ Cleared up the brain fogWhen my fiancé was killed in 2002, I felt like my brain went into a cloud and things were foggy. Even when I felt like I had recovered from that loss I was still very aware that my brain was working slower than it had before that loss. After playing BrainHQ daily for 2 weeks, I suddenly noticed that my mind was thinking a lot clearer and I was a lot more focused. I highly recommend this..Version: 2.8.0
✓ So Far So GoodAt end week one I feel enervated..Version: 6.13
✓ Restoring my mind from TBIGot into a car wreck 6 months ago and thinking, focusing and talking have been difficult. My therapist referred me to using this app and it has helped quite a bit. Slow process to get back to where I was, but this app will do the trick..Version: 6.9
✓ It works!Enjoyable, challenging and it really works..Version: 5.11
✓ This not a game, it’s training!I read several books about the brain, among them, two from Normand Doidge M.D. that’s where I heard about brain training, and specifically the one here, developed by Dr. Merznich and his team, and I’m totally delighted to have access to it so easily! Thank you very much for that app! I know it will change my life,.Version: 6.11
✓ ExcellentDoes what it says on the can. Recommended..Version: 3.4
✓ Why I don’t like BrainHQI like it because of the ek... ik... too hard! Stuff like Scene Crasher..Version: 7.2
✓ Great appAfter just a few days, admittedly, this brain plasticity app is streets ahead of the other two major players I've tried..Version: 3.4
✓ Lacks consistencySome good games and different from many of the other training games around. The level of difficulty adjusts while you are playing but how many ‘stars’ you gain for your attempt seems completely random. Sometimes I get less than half correct and get 3 stars other times practically all right and get 3/4 stars. If the developers could provide an explanation of how games are graded and ‘marked’ it would be a 5 star rating..Version: 7.12
✓ It Helps and is funI’ve been using this program as part of my brain therapy for over a year. Although, I still have a long ways to go towards improving my memory and other critical brain functions I lost while in the service. It’s hard work but worth the effort of getting better versus daily frustrations. Frustrations such as inability to follow conversations, forgetting faces, names, things to and other critical daily functions. I had to combine another program to help with also improving other parts of my brains. But Brain fitness is well worth the time..Version: 6.11
✓ Love BrainHQI am a senior citizen - worried about mental decline. I have bee doing this program for a couple of months and I have noticed improvement in my daily life. In driving. My reaction times are faster and I feel more secure in noticing other cars and distractions. Thanks HQ for making my world a bit safer. Any suggestions for helping me remember where I put my coffee cup or eye glasses?.Version: 6.9
✓ ScholarIf you're serious about brain training, don't waste your time on any other product. Brain training is a very young field, and no-one knows for sure what works best. In fact, a lot of the products out there, Nintendo Brain Age for instance, probably don't work at all. You get better at doing their exercises, but that doesn't mean you'll get better at doing anything in real life. Brainhq is the product that has the most scientific research behind it. There's good evidence that *some* of their exercises give you real-world benefits. However, not all the brainhq exercises have good evidence to back them up. For example, in the Brain Efficiency section there are some exercises based on a psychological test called a Stroop Task. For example, one of them shows you two shapes and asks you to decide, very quickly, whether they're the same color. A lot of researchers have tried to show that training on a Stroop Task will improve your performance on something other than that particular task. No-one's found solid evidence that Stroop Task exercises will improve your brain in any significant way. I only do the exercises in the Visual Intensive and Audio Intensive sections. Those are the ones with the most scientific evidence to back them up. As far as the quality of the app itself goes, I've never had a problem. It works great on an iPad mini, first generation..Version: 3.2
✓ Just startedI just started using it on my iPhone To see if i should consider a membership. Well the game im desperately trying to finish today doesn’t work. No matter how much i touch the bubbles, only sometimes it registers. Very frustrating. I don’t think i want to spend the money..Version: 7.2
✓ ChallengingI find the Daily Sparks keep me on my toes. Some of the instructions are vague, but overall they an interesting challenge. My daughter introduced me to the App and we compare notes daily..Version: 7.9
✓ ImprovementI like this app as anyone and any age can take part. It’s early days but I hoping to see improvement..Version: 7.6
✓ Good software needs hardware calibrationThe software is fantastic scientifically. However the software team needs to improve calibration for hardware that cannot keep up as the speed increases. When the visual or especially audio effects get faster (to below the 100ms range) the visuals and sounds get noticeably randomly clipped. Especially if I’m reacting quickly and not giving the phone time to process the next batch and catch up. This makes it impossible to read my true ability because the app is not outputting a true full signal. It is faulty for people who operate at the high end of human ability like myself. This isn’t a problem I would imagine for a plus one sigma deviation of the population and below. But for the small minority of us at two or three sigma plus who want to have an accurate assessment it is annoying. Graphics and a fancy interface are popular but they sacrifice too much processing capacity. I would suggest at faster speeds (sub 100ms) to cut graphics more and allow time for the next module to load before executing it on the standard predetermined GUI time table. If I have a 32ms ability (so far) I expect this app to keep up..Version: 6.11
✓ Easy to useI like how easy it is but still cannot access progress report without going on to main site..Version: 7.2
✓ Excellent!Enjoying the book too..Version: 2.8.0
✓ ChallengingI find this tedious and frustrating, but that’s probably why I need it!.Version: 6.11
✓ JaimeVraiment utile.Version: 3.3
✓ So far, hard but interestingThis almost feels physical. I hope it makes be smarter!! Some of the directions (and I’ve only been at this two days) could be improved, but I can certainly see how it forces a person to focus..Version: 7.3
✓ Great exercise.Great app. The only change I would like to see is an easier way of keeping track of my improvements..Version: 3.3
✓ Extremely WorthwhileThis program is valuable to stimulate my ability to learn... thanks.Version: 6.11
✓ Would have given 5 BUT...I would have given five stars but... The voice on the to do list training is pitchy and has feedback or something no matter how I adjust the volume it causes my ears to hurt. I love the app but every time I play that game my ears hurt and I try to rush to make that game go faster just to move on..Version: 7.1
✓ Trying it outIt’s great to be able to try out one exercise a day without paying. I’m getting a feel for whether the exercises will help me and whether I’ll be able to commit..Version: 7.9
✓ Very good but needs much improvementFundamentally, it is an excellent app. However, I find bugs which makes the training difficult at times or cannot even do what you want to do. Also, it has a tendency to kick you down to a lower level quickly, then have you go through exercises in too low a level, wasting your time. Then, when you finally get back to the next level, it gives you very challenging exercises immediately instead of easing you into that level..Version: 4.0
✓ A real workoutMy husband started training to help with his hearing so I joined in to be supportive. It really challenges your brain and continually gets harder as you improve. I notice an improvement in memory both in speed and recall, and just feeling my mind is sharper. You can tailor your program to suit your needs, well worth the money..Version: 5.4
✓ So addictive and challenging!I love this game! I love butterflies! Beware it's very addictive hihihi.Version: 2.5.0
✓ GreatReally interesting brain work..Version: 5.11
✓ Fantastic Brain ExercisesHave only started using the this app. I really enjoy their challenge on thinking. However, I'm concerned for when my 'beginners' phase ends and the only way to progress is via subscription. I think people already have a lot of monthly bills to pay and don't need an app subscription on top of the pile. If it were a one off cost, I'd likely pay for it..Version: 4.0
✓ Des professionnelsDD.Version: 7.8
✓ In the zoneThis is great! I love the way it adjusts to your capabilities but pushes you to the next level all at the same time. Very engaging and suitable for a variety needs - memory, mindfulness ( relaxing, weirdly!) , Speech & Language difficulties. Highly recommended..Version: 7.2
✓ Can only access free stuff even though I bought the subscriptionSo, I bought a monthly subscription and it still won't grand me full access. I keep getting the prompts to subscribe even though I got charged. uodate: I was able to restore the subscription using the FAQ on their website. In the app, it's under account -> about -> restore subscription.Version: 7.6
✓ Fun and I guess it helpsI do this every morning as part of my warm up for the day. The game/exercises are fun and require your full attention; I can tell you from personal experience that you can’t do this while you’re eating breakfast. And, while I haven’t read the published scientific journal articles to see how firm the evidence is for each game, at least those articles are available. So there’s a good possibility that your brain really is getting sharper while you’re enjoying the games..Version: 7.4
✓ PlasticityI used this app plus Lumosity and Active Memory for 1 1/2 hours per day in the hope that they might help to combat my Brain Noise. ( No, not tinnitus nor ototoxicity) After about 2 years I stopped because they had made no reduction to the noise. Approximately 10 months off, I noticed that my mental alertness wasn't as sharp. Now, 3-4 months back doing Posit Science and Melbourne University (Flory Institute) apps my mind seems sharper with the bonus of a more positive outlook on life. It works. David.Version: 4.0
✓ If you only ever get one app, this is it!Well structured, clear directions, gradual progression. Highly recommended!.Version: 5.4
✓ Comment...It is good that we can make a free account for this game and we can play them as much as we want without having to pay which is what makes the game better than most other brain training games..Version: 1.0
✓ Amazing!If there’s any app that actually gets that innate intelligence and aptitude working it is this. All the others including elevate and peak I found just rely on you improving the through practice. This one actually works on utilising your working memory, divided attention etc. Very much worth every penny..Version: 7.12
✓ Very good except for colourblind peopleThis is a very good app overall but some of the exercises do not take the needs of colourblind people into account. Distinguishing between some objects and their background put colourblind people at a disadvantage compared to non-colourblind people, thus skewing the scores. Although the helpdesk responds quickly, they dismissed this point and some other bugs in the software with curt responses..Version: 7.2
✓ Great appThis iPad version of BrainHQ is a great supplement to the PC/Mac online version. It enables me to continue my brain training no matter where I am..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Think about the way you think!Great challenges, like the way it is progressive and keeps you on your toes. Can feel improvements in clarity of thought..Version: 4.0
✓ MsVery occasionally, exercises within the app do not pick up your response - either the timing is out or it doesn't sense the response. Other than that the app is excellent..Version: 4.0
✓ Best site everI have used a few brain game sites over a few years and BrainHQ is by far more “bendable” to suit my desires and needs as well as an exercise routine that requires no changes. Competing with myself is challenging AND fun. With a brief bio on the researchers included, I am satisfied that real science is improving all areas of my brain. Two thumbs up!.Version: 7.2
✓ So many great games in this app!Hours of mind blowing games for the brain..Version: 5.2
✓ Do the exercises every day?Hi Michael, I really am a big fan. Thank you for Brain HQ. Thank your colleagues too. So good to know you have my back. Or is it my brain?! I promise to do the exercises every day. I promise. From today. Deal. Stay safe and well. All the best, Jane.Version: 7.4
✓ Fun and good for you tooThis cannot be bad and I think it is improving the old neurone we hope. The app works well and it is challenging. The audio sometimes starts too late and is not perfectly clear tho..Version: 3.4
✓ Good mental exercise without being tediousAll of the exercises have done so far a all challenging in some way and quite pleasant to do. The only complaint I have is that when you start a new one you've never done before, the explanation about how to play it and what to do is not at all good, I have to just keep playing and getting appalling scores until I figure out how it works. Otherwise I think it's a great app..Version: 3.2
✓ Free exercises only as yet but intending to subscribe.Most impressive. One unnecessary difficulty is the strong regional accent in the syllable exercise. An Australian finds it difficult to quickly distinguish between "dish" and "dash", "nut" and "not", and there are others. This reduces the value of the exercise which is important to we hearing-impaired..Version: 5.5
✓ A Cut AboveThis app is better than any of the other brain training I have tried, and it has the science to back it..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Take care of brain now so it will take care of you laterThis app has very creative games that stimulate various aspects of brain function. Enough uniqueness to each day that it never gets boring. Having seen many cases of dementia in the past, I feel exercising your brain is important to stave off hopefully or at least decline of mental acuity as we age..Version: 6.7
✓ I really enjoyed it!I am not sure how to measure if I am using more of my brain or not, but I defiantly get better with each time I play these games. It's also a lot of fun! Would defiantly recommend it to people to play!.Version: 3.4
✓ They listenI had a problem with the app, they listened, and gave me a solution that worked. Nice. And the app is awesome to boot..Version: 6.9
✓ When I train I fail badlyI find that the exercises are too fast for my eye/ coordination skills. Can you add more time ?.Version: 7.3
✓ LAmazing.Version: 5.1
✓ I like itQuick and challenging.Version: 7.1
✓ One of the best apps for your brainI can’t believe that you can actually increase your cognitive power with the help of exercises. This app is a really good starting point in your journey to cognitive excellence ?thanks to everyone who is and has worked behind the scenes for the app.Version: 6.13
✓ Love the challengeI had this app, quit but came back because none of the other were as good. One thing I really like is the ability to stop and come back. Some things I still need to master but always get another chanc E.Version: 7.9
✓ Love the app-don't give up if you are frustrated!!!I am a 66 year old female who didn't start using a computer until a little over 20 years ago. I got my first cell phone around that same time, as well. In other words, I did not grow up with the ability to use a computer and/or smart phone hard wired into my brain in the ways that younger people have. That said, I am able to navigate the app quite easily. And, after initial frustrations with customer service, I have since found them to be extraordinarily helpful. Moreover, I love perusing the website, when I have time, and find this helps me mentally organize my understanding of how all the pieces fit together. One thing I particularly like about the website is how it shows me where my deficits are and which exercise to focus upon in order to improve..Version: 6.11
✓ Highly Recommended ProgramI find Brain HQ to be well worth the money. I've been using the program consistently for several months and have noticed significant increase and sharpness in memory. I've also noticed difference in speed and efficiency in reacting to situations unfolding around me. Thanks to the team at Brain HQ for your research and development of a product that works like they claim..Version: 5.4
✓ Keep trying to challenge myself and get to improveEnjoying the different ways of thinking that I am able to challenge myself with..Version: 7.4
✓ Amazing appReally helped me with my auditory problems, while other brain training apps did not have that option. Best training app I've tried so far..Version: 5.4
✓ Brain HQ one month onI have been subscribed for a month now and am really enjoying using Brain HQ. Loving the variety and it’s great seeing improvement . Definitely feels like a better more productive alternative to facebook scrolling when you have a few minutes to spare !.Version: 6.13
✓ Fun and effective!Been training for a week and a half and already notice a much easier time remembering things. My texting speed has also greatly improved! It’s so much fun I have no trouble finding time to train..Version: 7.6
✓ Brain TrainingI love this app..Version: 7.2
✓ BrainHQExtending, sharpening and rewiring my cognitive ability. Working for me anyway! Nat..Version: 6.0
✓ Great app!Don't miss this app. It provides quality testing and exercises..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Why oh why?You have to send them your email address. I can only assume it is marketing..Version: 3.4
✓ Good but unstableGood exercises in here but a bit pricey for purchases especially considering it crashes regularly and I usually have to reboot my iPhone to continue using the app..Version: 3.1
✓ I didn’t think it would work, but ...... it does. I’m 57 and my cognitive abilities and reflexes have absolutely deteriorated. I’ve just done the free exercises for a week, but I can see and feel that my performance is getting better. I’m signing up for a year subscription today. Incredible. Thanks for creating this life-changing app..Version: 6.11
✓ Awesome Program!I’ve been reading Dr Merzenich’s SOFT-WIRED book & came across this in one of the chapters & knew I had to get it. At 68, still in the workforce with 30-& 40-somethings I know I have to be as sharp as I can be to stay in it. I was hooked on the free trial in 1 hour & took the leap for a subscription immediately. I get on it every night for 1 hour & I’m amazed at where I am vs where I think I am! This will definitely help me stay sharp not only in my work but in life issues too. Love it! Get it if you’re on the fence. You will be very thankful you did..Version: 6.13
✓ These puzzles keep my mind Alive!These mind games arriving everyday for me to do and believe me if I could I would take out a subscription for them but as a pensioner on a very limited budget I really can’t but they are so good with such a good mixture of things to do- so many different themes keeps one on the ball, as it were..Version: 7.9
✓ Amazing appThis app is well worth the investment if you are interested in improving your brain health. The free version gives you enough to start with, but there is an incredible amount included in the paid version so I would highly recommend it..Version: 5.10
✓ Be Patience, consistent and have a positive outlookThis app is the only one ( not Lumosity) based on true scientific research. It is really excellent even if you don’t see the results in front of your face be certain that they are in the background of your brain..Version: 6.13
✓ Best Brain trainingSince I started doing at least 5 mins of this every day I’ve noticed my thought processes have sped up and my recall is better. I’d thoroughly recommend it..Version: 7.10
✓ This app will keep your mind sharpThis app is the equivalent of going to the gym and having a personal trainer, there's lots of different games to target specific parts of cognitive capacity it's great. Play it for 20 minutes each day and you will see the results..Version: 3.4
✓ The only Real brain exercises based on scienceFantastic! As a user of the computer based Posit Science programs I am thrilled to have access on my IPad. This program has measurable results, is fun and NOW portable as an app!.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Extraordinary!It is simply incredible, in a short period you will start to feel different, see things differently, it is definitely a must have program. My entire family is in love of it. I can't wait to see what happened after a longer period of training time..Version: 5.7
✓ Amazing appSo impressed with the combination of scientific rigor and game like usability of this company and this app. 3 weeks in I am already noticing significant cognitive and memory benefits..Version: 6.11
✓ The best brain stimulator?I have read and watched videos of several qualified researchers who rate this as the best for cognitive development and avoiding decline in seniors. Having spent a few months using it, I'm happy to believe that. The biggest drawback for me personally is the failure to adjust some of the tests for those with colour blindness. I can stare at a frozen screen of birds for ages and see no odd one out. Practice cannot improve that. I have contacted the creators about this but have not received a satisfactory answer..Version: 5.4
✓ Creative and Quick!Impressed with the challenges and diversity..Version: 7.2
✓ Brain StimulationI find the problems very interesting and it helps stimulate my brain I am 75 years old and have through laziness and indifference allowed my brain to hibernate This has caused me a lot of shame and pain I hope by going through these exercises I would be able to regain some of the intelligence I had when I was younger and full of hope for the future Stanley Lee.Version: 7.1
✓ Great but too ExpensiveGreat work, just to expensive for the full version, be fantastic if they can get the rate down lower.Version: 3.3
✓ Brain FitnessAwesome app! So impressed!.Version: 1.1.0
✓ It can be fun, but requires practice. I definitely need it!I started this over a year ago, but I must admit, I’ve been slack and not consistent. I definitely enjoy it and feel like I’m treating myself when I brain train. However, so many other things have diverted my attention and I stopped altogether for several months. However, a close cousin just two years older than me was diagnosed with dementia. Upon visiting him already committed to a facility, I decided to get back with the program. I’m in!.Version: 7.0
✓ MissThis is great fun. Tricky and challenging. Give it a go..Version: 5.4
✓ The best brain science gets.This is the most effective, best brain training app on the market. hands down. And best of all it offers more than any others in it's free version! If you're serious about training your brain, it doesn't get any better than this..Version: 3.4
✓ Really great and improving all the timeThis app is well designed and the games can be addictive!.Version: 3.4
✓ Great but expensiveReally challenges brain & reflexes. However it’s pricing is rediculous unless for specialist training use..Version: 7.4
✓ Just what I needed!!Very simple but challenging games that are also very fun! Just got it and already addicted. Would recommend to even young people for keeping the mind sharp..Version: 1.0
✓ Great appThis is a very comprehensive brain training app. Much more thorough , in my opinion, than Luminosity.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Only Works if made use ofI read, any amount of BrainHQ training helps. Impressive! I will in good time reach 30 minutes each session three times per week. This stuff is amazing. It has really helped me feel better through improved function in every day. I use to feed anger in my gut through aggressive responses to stress. These were triggered by my mind, which only made me feel worse. I also had a tough time keeping my thoughts CLEAN. As in visualizing unreal events in my head. These made things worse as it separated imagination and reality by a very close margin. Meaning I would experience minor events that did not take place. As in someone telling me something I felt anxious about. Those are done with. No more wobbling of between la la land and reality. I also began taking better care of myself. An example of this is the fact I enjoy looking good again, in better then house clothes- I finally buy clothes with my Wife because I chose to. No longer am I penny pinching till it hurts- worrying about- ever running low on resources. My talking is a lot better in the sense I stopped beating round the bush. I was diagnosed with mania after starting talking to random people in public. Now I realize enough to see how messed up I felt prior to Good Treatment- which helped- the form of brain training through Brain HQ. I’m excited to review this software after doing it intensively for 4 weeks of 40 minutes per session. 5 days a week. I’m in love with my Brain since beginning to care for it through some software resistance training. My sense of humor is a tidbit better, my laughter being more natural compared to hysterical explosions of forced out moaning. Now I feel comfortable in my own skin- being proud what who I am. My physical exercise routine got a tweek also. I workout to feel good while fitting into pant sizes I wore in high school. A couple years back My physical Workouts are no longer suicide reflections of pouring sweet n feeling complete exhaustion followed. My heart rate dropped by 20-30 beats per minute during moderate stationary bike routines. I sleep better but also take time to rest during a busy day. After the motorcycle accident I was always wound up. So much so that I’d choose to walk 7 km to work just to feel calm. I also walked to save $6.50 per day on bus fare. Remember I mentioned money. One of the reasons I’d feel calm about running low on money was my anxiously about ending up on the streets one day. My state of mind was silly to say the least. How would spending six and a Half Canadian dollars be the tipping point of homelessness. It was anxiety that kept me away from a better way of living. Now I am here. In our own house, driving a nice car. Two child seats taking up seating space in our 7 seater. I really don’t know where to draw the line here. Wow I am alive again...happy at that. My Wife is happier since my noggin works enough to accompany her in most of life’s adventures. Thank you Dr. V for prescribing me BrainHQ It saved us tons of gloom.Version: 6.13
✓ Great mental exerciseThis has been a treat program to practice mental exercises. I really enjoyed going through daily routines..Version: 4.0
✓ ChallengingReally like the different 'issues'....not always good at all of them, but they are fun..Version: 5.11
✓ Fun Brain workI love going on to this app and doing the exercises. It’s fun but more than that after only a week I feel like my brain is looser (or tighter) details are crisper, I can think quicker. I’m more relaxed. I can’t really place the words for it but there is a positive change and I definitely recommend anyone spending time with this program.Version: 7.6
✓ Helps with peripheral visionI see an improvement in my driving especially on freeway. I am seeing all the lanes not just my lane. I am able to drive in a space with no cars immediately beside me. Thanks for helping me become more aware of my surroundings!.Version: 6.11
✓ CojinuaI really surprised with this app, it is lot of fun and the same time lot of training which improve our brain to work better .. Thank you for all of you for creating this amazing app... ???????????.Version: 4.0
✓ Brain Training.I saw an excellent program on ABC here in Australia and it really got me interested in training my brain . This app is convenient and fun. Keep up the great work guys and gals..Version: 2.9.0
✓ My TBI'sI had three Traumatic Brain Injuries(TBI's) during my military career. Back then we called them confusions. I had two Grade 3(loss of consciousness for less than a minute) to close-in RPG strikes and one Grade 4(loss of consciousness greater than 1 minute) in a helicopter shoot-down. These didn't affect me very much and I attended and graduated from a Pyhsician Assistant college. However in 2008, I had a fourth TBI and lost both long and short-term memory. I had to give up medicine. This App although difficult to follow the first times of use, has made huge jumps in my memory capabilities. Be patient..Version: 6.13
✓ Worth the time and moneyThis is an updated review from my earlier 3 Star one. Great idea, with good data behind it - tons of interesting research available through the app. Wide variety of exercises. Instructions have improved a lot though there may still be new user frustration- eg if you get the right answer but BHQ determines you were too slow, it’s the wrong answer. Response times to user questions also have improved though I really haven’t had any issues recently. Most mental challenges are still pretty easy for me at 70 and this is NOT - which is exactly what I wanted..Version: 6.6
✓ Super way to upgrade yourself!This training program is not for a sissy! It is for someone who seriously want to keep his/her brain upgrading. There are so many distractions and opportunities to dumb-down ourselves on a daily basis. Downgrading our thinking abilities is a direct result of living in our media-mucked world today. This remarkable app allows us to reset and improve. Thanks so much, Posit Science team! I am humbled three times a week, but I keep improving...if only a bit! It's in the right direction..Version: 6.0
✓ So difficult but just what I need!As my memory diminishes and my brain processing time deteriorates, this exercise — though it sometimes literally stops my brain — is less daunting than when I started. I feel that I am slowly improving. Bravo to whoever created this wonderful series of exercises!.Version: 6.13
✓ ChallengingI am very happy with this app. I have only used 3 different types but will continue to try different types and then make a decision on the overall subscription. It seems more like a fun game than an app for improving my brain.Version: 7.8
✓ Great appFantastic that it has sound evidence of improvement when you use it. I'm enjoying using it on most days. The only negative is that it sometimes shifts from portrait to landscape when you rotate the screen and it doesn't handle it correctly and you get a distorted aspect ratio.Version: 5.11
✓ Challenging!Every time you think you're getting a handle, the game gets harder. It pushes you..Version: 5.4
✓ Review if Brain hqI, after doing a session until the end can actually sense the difference in my driving after after doing a brain session in Navigation. My driving became really good and cognitively very aware. I caught myself checking all mirrors, and driving much more consciously. Also, after other brain sessions I was able to adapt and adopt whatever the Brain hq session was about. For short term memory I was able to remember telephone numbers right after seeing the telephone numbers and was able to recall without any deterrence. I am going to subscribe soon. Everyone should do so. Sure helps me!!! Thank you and hope to get really good at the sessions..Version: 6.9
✓ An Unexpected Aid to New LifeAfter a stroke about a year and a half ago, I was introduced to BrainHQ. At the time it was a nuisance, one of many new things I started doing to accept what I felt was my responsibility for my life, including my wife, my family and my own future. I stuck with it over time and, today, while I claim no expertise in these matters, I feel I have benefitted significantly. Sadly, I know some folks who passed up BrainHQ and the subsequent onset of dementia has been marked and noticeable. I would recommend BrainHQ to anyone who experiences a stroke and recognizes I want to work my way—not back to the life I had (which may or may not be possible), but forward to a better life as I move from ER, Rehab and on through my recovery to the gift of the good future I have been given. There is no sensible way around the truth: The brain is like a super-dupper muscle that functions best with regular exercise and challenge. Either I engage in a disciplined, regular BrainHQ activity schedule or I accept the sure and certain consequence. It’s my life, my choice. And I strongly suggest that may be true for you also: It is your life, your choice. And I hope you choose wisely. Best wishes, Fran Buhler age 78 Tallahassee, Florida.Version: 6.13
✓ Literally life changingThis app is literally making my life better. The exercises are so accessible that I can complete them anywhere anytime, making the 3 hours of exercises required a week achievable. Highly recommended..Version: 3.2
✓ Cured my friends ADDI let my cousin in Bulgaria use this program and he said that it cured his ADHD in 3 months with 2 hrs of daily training. He mainly focuses on double decision, divided attention, card shark, mind bender, right turn, target tracker.Version: 6.11
✓ Brain Training for ExcellenceThis training challenges us to grow and strengthen our brains including areas that we never considered ourselves competent in. Because of my experience in BrainHQ I’ve started learning French despite my life long inability andor lack of confidence in learning languages..Version: 7.1
✓ You get what you put inThis is no walk in the park. The exercises push all our cognitive buttons, they are frustrating at times, but with diligence and application will render results. Sometimes I would like to get some strategic advice on how to best approach some of the exercises, but perhaps these would only suit some folk as we have different ways of processing information. I give this 5 stars because it is meticulously designed and far reaching in its scope..Version: 6.11
✓ Amazing program but I find it punitiveWhen you get something right, it advances. When you get something wrong it takes more points away than when you get something right. Twice I have complained to them that right and wrong answers should be weighted the same. They say they will pass the comment on to the developers. This is why i think it is punitive. They are very creative at changing things so it remains challenging and when I am having trouble with an exercise they slow things down until i can get it. That I appreciate. One new exercise was impossible for me and I called them and they explained that the difference was in the tail feathers of the bird I was to identify from a similar group if birds. This was not apparent to me until they pointed it out. Still difficult to spot but now I had a chance. I have to say they are very responsive to any call or email for help. The exercises are interesting..Version: 6.12
✓ Brain HQ is great!When first started BrainHQ I’d been doing Lumosity for one year and kind of felt Lumosity had challenged me as much as it could. BrainHQ is completely different & challenging without End! I bought a two year subscription & I’m very pleased four months into BrainHQ..Version: 7.9
