1. 5/5Just do it. I can hardly believe how much it has helped.

   Okay, let me give you a little bit of background… I was so concerned I was developing dementia that my neurologist sent me to a neuropsychologist for cognition testing. I was increasingly having difficulty with remembering things, stumbling over my words, not being able to put things together mentally, and so on and so forth. During our consultation, I mentioned to the doctor that I like doing puzzles, and she suggested a few apps for me to check out, Elevate being one of them. My test results showed no signs of dementia (Thank God!!) but is appears something has “gone in and shuffled the files in my filing cabinet so I have trouble locating the information”. I have been using Elevate and a couple of other “brain training” apps for about a year and a half now, and can honestly say - as in my title - I can hardly believe how much it has helped me. I picked up the others because although Elevate does a great job with memory, linguistics and math, I wanted a bit more variety in the types of “puzzles” I was doing, to include logic, spatial awareness and other things. Elevate is - at least in my opinion - 100% worth the price but you DO have to put in the effort. My memory HAS gotten better, I am thinking more clearly, and I am astonished at how much just a few minutes a day has helped me. I know I probably sound like a paid advertisement, but this has been my actual experience. If you feel you need this type of app, Just Do It. It’s worth the price of admission.

2. 5/5Be Careful with Billing (Updated)

   I used this app back in 2018 to help study for my GED tests. It was extremely helpful, however I stuck to the free version. If this was all this review was about, it would be much more positive. Years later I am getting informed via email that if I don’t cancel my subscription (which I never started) I’m getting charged for it within a couple of days. No incoming charge has been shown on my apple subscription list, and when I log in to the app itself, it’s the free version. Reading through reviews I see that this is a common issue. It’s extremely disappointing because the app itself is effective, but there is no reason to be charging customers that are NOT getting premium services. I am hoping that this email is an error, however if I get charged for this while having a free membership, I will certainly dispute it. The amount of people that have been wrongfully charged is not okay. Developers, please try to fix this issue. You have a beautiful app that helps with learning and keeping the mind sharp. Please fix this issue where the game is charging everyone. Thank you, have a good day. EDIT: Shortly after I sent this in, I got an email from someone on the marketing team saying I would not be charged. I love the app itself, and given the very speedy manner in which they contacted me to resolve the issue, I am changing this review to five stars. If I ever need any academic help in the future, I am much more likely to use this again and consider the full version. A big thank you to the team for handling this so quickly.

3. 5/5Activities are decently generalized so as to be modular and highly applicable.

   Elevate enhances cognitive abilities through generalized games targeting mathematics, memory, and language, and more, promoting the use of skills that are applicable to real-world problem-solving scenarios. The sleek, intuitive design with abstract visuals ensures an engaging, user-friendly experience, maximizing learning potential while not compromising professionalism. It is simple and clean. Some of the reading and mathematics sections focus on logic-based performance, building universally applicable skills. A valuable tool for developing mental sharpness and competency across essential cognitive domains. I have the ~$20 a year deal and at that price point it is excellent. There are some concerns as well as space for even more features.C he presence of crosswords on the main page aren’t conducive towards a focus on generalized cognitive performance. Crosswords aren’t heavily backed by scientific research toward maximizing general cognitive abilities. There is no generalized visual spatial search, and the presence of random words and letters does not require reasoning. It lacks abstraction and generalization. There is no need for the update to place this at the forefront focus of the page. Overall, this is a useful tool to keep the brain on a course of maximum informational processing productivity. Not the only one to use, though, this one is particularly effective.

4. 4/5Sooo close to perfect

   I really enjoy Elevate. It’s one part of my daily brain workout routine and has been for a while. It’s sooo close to perfect. The problems? How gains in level are determined. It really makes little sense. High score? Even at a tough difficulty level? You might only jump 2 levels instead of 4 or 5. Sometimes there is no gain in level, even for doing an “Excellent” job. And what qualifies as a “speedy answer” is not at all tied to the difficulty level or how long it might take to read something. It’s like someone randomly decided it’s x amount of seconds, no matter if you’re on level 100 or level 400, whether a potential problem is highlighted or not (they’re highlighted until you’ve reached “a high difficulty level,” but when they’re no longer highlighted, how long you have to answer and it’s accepted as a “speedy answer” is no different than how long you have when they are highlighted). I’m at Master level (the highest level) on everything except Memory (I often skip those games if I haven’t taken my adderall because I just can’t focus well enough for them lol). Overall, Elevate is a fantastic app and well worth the money to open/unlock the full game, but how level gains and speedy answers are determined should be addressed. If that ever happens, it’ll be a 5-star game, no doubt. Even still, if you’re looking for some brain exercise, you should consider this app. Even the free version is good (though the paid version is great). Fix the issues and it’ll be excellent. (See what I did there, app creators?)

5. 5/5Great unless you have visual or motor impairments

   UPDATE: They have added Zen mode which removes the timer! This is a huge improvement for me as I have a hard time reading the information due to eye problems. IThe lack of a timer doesn’t take away from the score either which is great! You can still play the version with the timer if you like. But it also used to stress me out which made it hard to focus. Really great job! —————- Firstly, this app is preatty awesome. As a person who enjoys playing video games, this series of mini-games is fun and they really do train your brain and keep you thinking. I look forward to playing these every morning. All that being said, there are some issues. I am legally blind, and that makes it hard for me to play some of them because it takes me time to zoom in and read what is being shown on screen. Because of this, I often have to retry some games multiple times and the game misjudges my actual skill level due to my eye sight making it a bit harder to read what’s there. Likewise, I can see someone who has problems making certain gestures on the screen having some issues as some games require you to do quick motions in rapid succession. I would be more than happy to aid in accessibility features for this app as I think it is something that everyone can benefit from.
