1. 1/5Will not be renewing subscription

   Initially, I would have rated this app 5 stars; I was so impressed during the free trial that I actually subscribed monthly. I thought the vast range of assessments, complexity of games, multi-platform ability and the personalized video coaching were all highly unique traits for brain training apps, and I do still have that stance. However, the amount of glitches/utter non-usability of the games has become ludicrous. As a paying customer, I am currently unable to complete my “personalized training,” “driving test,” or “reading test,” because all three end in the same assessment which is not working; it won’t even start (Visual Memory Test). Further, my current personalized training includes a game which does not work past level 6.0 (Melody Mayhem); thus, I can’t advance there either. I even tried playing Melody Mayhem on PC just to get new tasks; however, it’s broken there as well. Recently, glitches with Mahjong (over half the screen is cut off, thereby preventing you from making matches) and Gem Breaker (you don’t receive a new ball after having leveled up, and timer simply runs out) are also prevalent, while multiple other games and assessments simply freeze mid-activity or will not randomly open at all. For both my iPhone and PC, I have checked my storage, WiFi connection/internet speed, etc and all specs far surpass the purported necessary requirements for this game to work. Very disappointed; I had high hopes but cannot keep wasting my money on games I cannot even play.

2. 2/5LOVE THE GAMES BUT HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE APP

   Everything had been going well until I got to the game MINUS MALUS. It involves a cannon firing number blocks to bring the parachuting boxes down to zero before they touch the ground. The problem is, per the instructions, to use the slider on the right-hand side of the screen to point the cannon in different directions. My slider doesn't work because when I move the cannon to shoot at a different angle you can't press a number block to shoot. You have to release the slider to do that but when I do that the cannon points up only. I can't finish the game at all because of this problem. I tried to contact Cognifit through their Help Center and when I try to send the email a window pops up telling me this website isn’t safe to use I even received the same message from the app. I need help and it is hard to find so I am writing this review hoping I can get some help. I do like Cognifit and I want to continue using it.

3. 4/5THE BEST BRAIN TRAINER PERIOD.

   I’m not saying you’re going to become Einstein but I will say that if you don’t see improvements then it’d be like someone trying to lose weight and not going to the gym. This is by far the most extensive brain training app I’ve gotten the chance of using and at this point I’ve used quite a few. I’ve noticed things like remembering names of customers where I work improve and them ask “how do I have such good memory?”. I train my brain and the improvements come. I do think this app can be a little buggy at times (which is why it got 4 stars) but they are responsive and I have seen improvements! I do hope they can continue to grow this and that more people will do something that I think we don’t realize have vital it is to our day to day. To all at Cognifit, thank you!

4. 4/5Really Fun Except for Two Big Glitches

   Just joined for three years. Love the games but there are two games that dont work on Ipad. The first game shows words and you are to hit "OK" if the color of the letters matches the word color. Only, for Ipad/IOS, there is no OK button. I tried hitting tongs of things but get one wrong after the other. The second game is "fresh squeeze." In the tutorial, youre supposed to tap on a square and move pieces of pipe into the correct square. Only no matter how much or hard I tap, the square doesnt activate. Ive tried this on two Ipads and same on both. Game shouldnt have these types of glitches in IOS for the price. I have been back and forth with customer service 1000 times and still not fixed. The worst part is it is always part of my daily game so I either have to take a bad score or skip it and can never get to the next part. Should be an option to skip a game and go on to the next one.

5. 2/5Deleted in Less Than a Week

   If you’re thinking about sticking with the free version, I will give you the run down. You get one free cognitive assessment. The assessment was fun and you could email yourself the results. (The other assessments were around $50). You get access to 4 different games: - Mahjong - A candy matching game - Whack-A-Mole - Word hunt You get 3 daily training exercises that are picked from the free games and also the premium games. ——————————— I was very excited about my plan. I said “okay, 3 games every day, no big deal.” The first time I played, it said “Come back in 24 hours.” I skipped the day after because the 24 hours were up around the time I went to bed, so I just figured I’d wait until the next morning and that be part of my morning routine. Well, every day after that I would sit and play for an hour, but it never gave me a daily ✅. So I would think “okay, maybe it gives me a ✅ when I beat my high score. So I would spend SO much time trying to beat my high score and I couldn’t. And the day after, it would still give me an ❌ for the previous day. I was LIVID. Also, I’m not sure how they score the Majong, but it gets extremely difficult after level 3, and I tried looking up the rules, but CogniFit doesn’t have any rules anywhere on the app or online. Just the “benefits”. So I deleted it. Dear CogniFit, If this is a bug, fix it. And put more directions out there!!
