Mensa Brain Training

I have short term memory issues and I have been getting better at remembering patterns every day. I still have good and bad days but I am improving. Everyone should push to get better even if you’re not having any problems.👍🏻👍🏻

I enjoy playing this. However, there are a few issues. The subscription isn’t a plus, but I’ll focus on the game itself. The Tanagram Puzzle is a major issue. There are many times where you have no idea which shapes to choose, because there are absolutely spots where shapes will fit, but they are apparently “wrong”. They need to make this game more clear; maybe change it so you have to drag the shapes in place until you complete a puzzle? Also, with Shape Sums, there are often two correct combinations when the numbers begin to get higher. However, only one is counted as right. They need to ensure that they only provide one correct option, or, if they do decide to put two correct options, make sure they both count. Otherwise, I’ve enjoyed playing this. Keep up the good work!

I bought the app in May 29, 2021 for a two-year subscription. After a week of using it, the app required me to go through the tutorial everytime I log-in and after completing the tutorial and assessment, it would require me to sign-up for a subscription. Apple remind me everytime that I already paid for it, thankfully. Nonetheless, I am stuck with a trial version even when I already paid for a subscription. I contacted their support services and did not hear anything afterward. I wish I can have my subscription restored or get my money back.

I use this app after my morning workout. It’s my one two combo for getting my mind and body going for the day. 👍 The games are challenging and entertaining especially when trying to surpass your previous score. Special shout out to the support team. You guys are fantastic!

I’ve used several apps because my work is so redundant it dulls the mind. The other apps are paid services. Yet they do not challenge my mind as effectively as this one. The workouts are by far more nuanced and dynamic. Two thumbs up for Mensa!

I’ve really liked playing the games and I feel that it has made me more alert. I am in the free trial period now and it seems like the patterns are repetitive in each game. Do you get more options if you pay for the app? I feel like I would get bored in a month or two of daily training even if I never got a perfect score. I can’t find the information anywhere.

This is a great app. I find when I do it daily I’m definitely sharper. I also do better on tests. It’s a lot better of a deal than what you’ll find on some of the other brain training apps. If you keep it up it is definitely worth your subscription.

On the training option you can take a practice test and at completeion there is an option to review answers, from there you can choose the q and a and at the top right hand side of screen press why and it explains it and why your answer was wrong.

I like it but the patterns are repetitive. I would need to see new fresh things every week or two to do this daily with my ADHD brain. I also do not understand what the score is based against so I don’t know how good I am actually doing. For example is 500 MBI equivalent to 130 IQ? I have no reference so I can’t feel the reward from doing it.

The puzzles are actually challenging and help improve focus and memory. No ads makes it so much better to use. Better than spending time on mind numbing games.

I’m young, and was born during the technology era so I have a low attention span and it made it difficult for me to focus on a book. Now I’m much more focused and I am breezing through books!

I like how it is challenging and requires the perfect amount of time to work on it every day. This is really nice if you were just looking for 5 to 10 minutes every day of getting that brain exercise in.

What made me interested in the app in the first place was knowing it’s scientifically designed to improve cognition. In other words, it’s not just fun and games... although it IS fun, and I’ve already played multiple times this morning, this afternoon, and this evening... and it’s just Day01.

I got the app and tried it out and loved it. Then i got the subscription ( super cheap) used all the features and my mbi score rose by 30 between the first day and now im addicted 😭love this app

Very measurable difference in my cognitive abilities. It is reverberating throughout my everyday life at this point. I can literally feel the heightened level of critical thinking within my decision making process. I wish the paid features were free.

This app teaches and train my brain in many ways, shapes, colors, numbers and other weird ways. As opposed to crossword and sudoku, this twists my brain from all angles and keeps me engaged through many ways of thinking.

I can't believe how much fun this app is, it focuses on important things like patterns and memory, it is such an amazing educational app, it is nothing like the scams and phony brain games out there! It is defiantly amazing, I highly recommend purchasing a subscription, I did and I love it!

Are you interested in spending your free time improving your thinking skills? If yes, then Mensa is the right tool for you. Don’t spend your leisure time in mindless Solitaire when you can improve your mental skills with fun exercises.

This is an excellent way to evaluate yourself, especially when you are chronically sleep deprived like me. I am learning the things I need to do to optimize my brain's performance for daily living in a competitive world.

I have enjoyed using this app to hopefully forestall my memory loss. My only reason for not giving the fifth star is that the instructions are occasionally less than clear. My thanks to those who have created this tool!

This game becomes addictive like popular games (i.e. Candy Crush) and others. The exercises stimulate the mind while still remaining relaxing. This is a must try app!

I look forward to my daily brain training with this app. I downloaded it when I was traveling and it was a great distraction from our travel delays.

Overall I think this is a pretty fun app, however, I’m disappointed that you can’t do anything on it anymore without a subscription. You can only play 2 of the games now without a subscription, and there really isn’t enough on the app (yet at least) to buy the subscription.

The tangram puzzle is probably the only brain game I’ve ever done that probably makes you less intelligent. It makes zero sense why they give you multiple right angle triangles to choose from as possible and answers and have you guess which one is the right answer. Terrible flaw

All I need is them to send me a text or email with a way to get back in. Every time I try to do it it says there's something wrong. I paid for this app and haven't been able to use it for months. When it worked, it was great, now it's a piece of junk unless I hear from them. Hello?

I’ve played them all and this one Up there with the best of them. Plus it’s from MENSA so…of course it is!👍👍👍

AFTER you give your email to create an account, the only way to use this is to sign up for emails and utilize the free trial subscription. Find something else that has a free version and a premium version. This is only good if you want to give up your personal info for a week trial and then possibly subscribing.

A couple months after retiring, I noticed a slight decline in my brain functions. Brain Training restored and improved my brain’s functionality. Just like any muscle: Use it or lose it! Enjoy!

I set it up for my elderly mom to keep her brain active. She uses it everyday!

I enjoy the app. I can see my progress and I like that feature. It’s quick to test and train.

I really feel like how these games forces me to focus and concentrate. I am working on my memory and this helps.

I honestly notice a cognitive improvement when using app vs not.

Great brain food. My job requires attention to minute details and these workouts really fine tune the machine.

Please keep it updated, i enjoy how each game encourages the brain to process each challenge!

The games are all good. But we are fast learners, so after a while it feels all known. So please add more varieties. Thanks

You get a free trial but have to pay for it after a week. Also, the word color game is repetitive and not very challenging.

Overall fun to play. Some of the shape questions have multiple answers but it will only accept one. That gets very frustrating. Other games are fun.

After just the first day of training my score jumped instantly

This is an amazing app! I don’t have any problems with it whatsoever. Not only is it fun, it’s helpful, too! It’s a great use of my time.

I don’t feel like my brain is rotting when I play this game.

This is great to push your self and exercise your mind.

Apple needs to remove these thinly veiled apps created just to get you into a auto renewing subscription. I wanted to use the app but you have to agree to receiving email spam and paying a subscription. You have been warned.

I love Mensa...the best brain training...I’m feeling smarter all the time...kudos to the developers for a fantastic app..I feel the synapses firing every time I play this game!!

These are a lot of fun and you can do them anywhere.

Great way to stay sharp. Pretty inexpensive and definitely worth it!

Idk of this works to train your brain or not but if I can’t compare my scores to the average I’ll never know how I’m really doing. Also it looks painfully ugly

My IQ has gone up more than 43,000 points since starting this.

Love it

I really enjoy this app. While I haven’t yet purchased.

I was using this app to prepare for an iq test (btw im 12) and i scored 150! Great way to train your brain and raise intelligence
