Paid for the app, however it has not been updated to allow it to run on the latest iOS.
However it was a very good app while I could use it.
Edit: Devs saw my review, and delivered! 5stars. Thanks for the update.

I've downloaded this app cause I thought it was good considering it was from Mensa and when running the app I got a message saying this app will slowdown my iPhone and it looks terrible on my iPhone 7+. So now I see this is not updated since 2013?????
How can you still ask for money for this? You should be ashamed!

Version 1.3.0
However, as a few others have stated, I dislike the repetition of questions. I feel as though a larger database of questions is needed. Alternatively, perhaps the developers could update the questions to keep it fresh and challenging.
As with most other reviewers I too feel that I'd like to know which questions I got wrong, I wouldn't like the correct answer though.
Finally, it would be nice if the bell curve indicating where your score lies is updated. Having done the home test and gotten my mark, I found that this did not correlate to the mark or percentile stated in the app or on the Mensa website. The unexplained inconsistencies make it difficult to truly gauge whether it might be worth taking the supervised test.
Overall, it is a fun app to keep the brain working during those times of boredom, frustration or in my case insomnia 😂

Good but sloppy

Version 1.3.0
A good app, but many of the questions have been put together in a sloppy fashion and the questions themselves are not correct. This can be confusing since none of the answers are correct for some questions. Only by guessing and getting top score of 180 have I been able to prove that the questions are wrong. Have contacted developers to ask them to review these incorrect questions but no response. Would have expected more from Mensa's official app.

Unsure about reliability of scoring

Version 1.3.0
I began by taking the short version test, and despite feeling as though I did rather well, I only scored 111 (quite a bit lower than I'd expect of myself). Struck me as odd, so I then tried the medium test, and scored 125 which is around what I expected in the first place. I don't know why my score was so much lower on the first occasion, considering that the medium test questions were entirely fresh, so I couldn't have taken advantage of any repeated questions. Indeed it's odd, but otherwise some nicely devised questions.

Enjoyably Challenging

Challenging but achievable. Really enjoy the brain stimulation. Especially on those mundane days! Only thing a little disappointing is the repetition of questions... Solving some of the questions does take a lot of effort. Once I've worked out the answer I tend to remember it and so am a little disappointed if it comes up again. (Although it does give me more time to work out the new ones!! ;) Every cloud...!!) Jx

Version 1.3.0
A really good app for training your brain. I totally disagree with all the other reviews saying that the answer should be shown after every question. The reason for this is because it is like a proper exam. When you sit one of those, you don't know if you got it correct or not until it has been marked. The questions are difficult in places and it makes you feel as if you've just payed for an app that is for a quiz genius. However, sometimes you can find them easier. Overall, I would recommend it and it is defiantly worth the money.

This app doesn't tell you where you went wrong, just gives a score at the end. This is fine if you just want to test your IQ, but personally I'd like to know which questions I got right. Maybe it's meant for smarter people than me.

The whole point of game apps might be to fill in a couple of minutes on the way somewhere, but that's not the whole point of Mensa tests.
This one is easy to use, and has a good variety of questions. That's all it needs really. I don't think the answers are so necessary because I think we are fairly sure of those we've answered incorrectly when we submit. I'm useless at the number questions, I don't need the app to tell me that and pour salt into the wound!

This is an excellent app that exercises the brain, and is really quite addictive. I like the fact that it does not show you the answers after the real test, you have no choice but to figure it out. After doing several test you start to develop the ability to think about problems in different ways. I really do like this app.

Not a bad game!

The tests are great to take every now and again, but once you've taken the test a few times the same questions pop up time and again. I realise they are at random but if they added more questions then maybe they would be less likely to reappear as often.

The content and the mechanic is nice but found two things that annoys me. If you're listening music the app stops it everytime you select an answer even if you have muted the phone. The other one is that the training questions are too repetitive and sometimes the same question appears several times in consecutive training sessions. If they improve those two points I will give 5 stars.

However, as per other reviews, I also would have liked to see easy examples given of all question types in the training sessions, with the tests themselves containing different questions along the same themes.
This is Mensa - surely there is no need to exactly duplicate questions?

Both my husband and I have been using this app and enjoying the competition. Good variety of questions and the training session is helpful. Reason for 4* is that it doesn't tell you the questions which you got wrong, give you the correct answers or how you would achieve the right answer ( it does in training session but its only 5 questions) After a few shots realised the reason for this is because questions are repeated but I'm finding this frustrating.
