Ratings and reviews

Some of the games are kind of repetitive. I agree. The memory games are fairly useful, as they reflect how useful my memory is in real life. The language games to me are the most useful. I love the Contextual game, Taking Root, and Word Bubbles. When I was at the hospital with my husband in late February for a follow-up on his DBS surgery, he was required to do some more cognitive tests. I also got the opportunity to do the same but only a limited number of tests, and I was compared to people of the same age group with similar educational background. Some of these samples of tests reminded me of Lumosity; for example, Word Bubbles. I also had to remember certain images and draw them on paper. The Tidal Treasures game is very similar in terms of choosing specific images and clicking on new ones. The Train of Thought and Trouble Brewing are very good attention games that help with divided attention. I find they are challenging enough for me. The drawbacks? Familiar Faces is an excellent game for remembering names. There is nothing else like it. Unfortunately, it requires a flash player and will not work on my iPad or phone or any Mac device. I use to play it regularly on my PC, and quite enjoyed it. Another drawback is that I wish this game had the option of multi-player format. In this time of the Covid-19 crisis we are already so socially disconnected. I get tired of playing solo. One final thought: I know that only mobile Apple devices are gaming devices. It still would be nice if Lumosity were compatible with Mac laptops and desktops. Playing on an IPhone is not nearly as interesting as playing from a computer. I realize that most games are not compatible with Mac computers, but it would be great if this could change sooner rather than later.

I tried it out, did a few games & it matched them up to what I wanted to work on/improve (memory, math, speed, etc.). I don't really have any complaints, besides that after the free trial the app is very expensive.. $70/year or $14/month. That's almost the price I pay for a brand new Nintendo Switch game.. just seems a bit high. If it was between $5 and $10 a month I would think about it If you're willing to spend the money though, it does seem like a good app to train your brain. Try it out!

Love it. The only thing that would make me any happier is if it was full access for free, but it's so good I don't even mind paying :) love the personalized brain workouts and the graphs to track progression and the comparisons to different authors and the occupation profile and just about every feature on this app. Very worth it. Only takes a few minutes each day and you feel sharper.
