Though I don’t get to do all my daily activities, but this app has actually thought me loads of stuff and made me aware of things I needed to improve on like basic spellings and techniques in mathematics. Definitely worth my yearly subscription. I’d recommend it to anyone

Version 5.43.0

The features are great and the progression system is excellent.

What would make it better is the option to 'retry' an exercise in the daily list before moving onto another. I just hate it when you finish an exercise and the only option you have is to continue to the next daily exercise when what you want is to drill the same thing another time.

Apart from that the UI is great with an excellent colour theme. It would be even better if you could add a dark theme to improve battery life on devices with oled panels whilst ensuring that the bright white light doesn't burn our retinas out when looking at the screen in a darker environment.

Cheers for an incredible tool guys. Hope you continue to keep improving it.

Version 5.42.0

I’m loving Elevate, having had the lite version for a couple of years, I finally took the plunge for the pro, it’s awesome and it is really challenging me! I’m an at-home-mum, having given up my career to see my kids through their childhood, but this gives me that extra brain squeeze and teases out of me a total brain workout which I don’t get - even homeschooling this last year! It’s great. Thoroughly recommend.

Good but one thing

Version 5.41.0

So overall this app is I’d say far by one of the best learning apps I have ever come across. However this is a review, what we ppl think of a specific app and to give info to other peeps so they can tell if this app is good and they should get like roblox best game in the world or Minecraft.

So what I mean for other people reading this is continuing a lesson etc. cost money you know like this.

£39 a year. Although it seems cheap but soon or later your money will flush down the toilet…

Warning: I RECOMMEND NOT PURCHASING THE FULL GAME. IS THAT CLEAR¿¿¿

So yeah this game is good for studying and you can discover lots of new games. If there was 200,000,000 stars I’d rate it one million and a half.

They tell you its free but as soon as you start they are already asking for money, Apps that say they are free should be removed if they then ask for money to continue using them. They should be honest from the start then I wouldn't waste my time downloading a so called free app.

Version 5.40.2

I’ve been using it just for 1 week, so I can’t see and feel any major results yet, however, I really enjoy it a lot. This program is helping me to get out of my comfort zone and sweat my brain consistently. There are several things that I want to uplevel, which is my speaking, writing, math, focus, speed reading, creativity, understanding, etc. I am confident that Elevate is going to help me improve 100%

Not recommended if you’re not American

It is quite biased towards the American market, and is grating at times with phrasing and choice of grammar.

6 Day Free Trial Not 7

why i dont do free trials

–

2021-03-23

Version 5.40.2

I think the app is good, lots of helpful games to help you improve your self.

But after not really using for a week (the 7 day free trial I thought). I went to cancel the subscription and it says you need to cancel on the 6th day to avoid another year’s subscription.

Sorry if I seem mystified at a week not being a week.

As a second review The app is good and it really does give your brain a test plus it tells you your results and how much you improve and when I got emailed back I was offered a free trial which was good however I would only use the app during the free trial I wouldn't recommend paying the full price.

Version 5.40.1

Found this app through my fitness pal app linked through to down load. It DID NOT SHOW AS A CHARGEABLE APP IT IS

Don’t get scammed it is not a small annual fee eitherWon’t let you go to reject either you have to sign up for 7 days free after which is a thumping annual charge

Am contacting both MyFitnessPal pall and Apple so they are aware

Version 5.39.0

I really like elevate and think it’s made a big difference as well as many other brain trading apps.

The reason I’ve put 4 stars is because without elevate pro (elevate) there are not many games you can do and you can only do 3 of the 5 games in the daily workout. It’s a bit annoying that there are barely any things you can do without it but, at the same time, I understand that the developers need to make money but still I think they could at least give us a bit more things we can do for free.

Anyway overall I think this is a great app that trains ur brain 😁

Thank you for reading my review 🙏☺️

Good but too much flashing and distracting graphics

2021-02-13

Version 5.39.0

I really wish the activities were not set with flashing black grounds all the time. After a long days work, my eyes are tired. The level of visual stimulation is OTT here. Sadly I just downloaded a maths app that’s simpler. I will possibly continue with Elevate too but so far I’ve been really put off by the experience despite. The games are great. If the developers could consider toning down the motion graphics etc that would be great. For example to do another game from the same section, you are dazzled looking at spinning numbers, shooting ‘stars’, screen changes etc. I’m sitting there thinking ‘c’mon, I just want to do another game’ instead all this ceremonial stuff is happening in the background...

Impressed, after all!

Version 5.37.2

I edited my review because the developers immediately responded to my review, of which I was surprised about to be honest, and I can utilise the free app after all!! 😃

I really like using this App. I remember having it a while back and it really challenged me to improve my reading, writing, vocabulary, and maths skills. However, on returning to the App, after all this time, I was disappointed to find out it’s now a paid for app. If it wasn’t for the developers responding to my review; I would never have know, and would have missed the chance to use it.

I did delete the app, but I have reinstalled it, and I look forward to utilising the app as often as I am able to in between work and stay at home.

I am looking forward to using it more often, maybe in bit sizes this year as I want to improve my skills, read more, try to beat my cousin in scrabble..when we come out to lockdown, and try to add-up better. I’m very excited and I would recommend the app. I just feel that clearer guidelines should be there to show people all options on how to get the app and make people decide if they want to pay for it. I would have missed it if I wasn’t shown.

5 star for such a great app. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Expensive

–

starbase74

2021-01-12

Version 5.37.2

The app is presented very well and feels more premium in comparison to the app Peak. Peak feels like a much more simplified, and more “child like” in its UI to that of Elevate. However Peak is very affordable at only £3.99 a month. It’s simply good value for money for what it is and how it looks. Both apps most likely achieve the same results despite having very different UI. I wouldn’t want to pay anymore than £5.99 a month for Elevate but not £39 as a one off payment. That’s a weeks grocery shopping.

Simply put, I think a month free trial would be more generous. £39 is just too much money to ask upfront, a monthly subscription would be more appropriate and affordable for people. Cost of this app needs to be revised.

Superb !

Version 5.36.0

Exceedingly close to scoring 99% across all metrics, after playing for almost 4.5 months.

Excellent design, UI, content & algorithms constantly evolve to become more challenging.

Keeps it enjoyable & entertaining.

Has had tangible & definite impact upon improving impetus to learn, determination, concentration, broaden mind/perspectives & develop skills in unrelated areas.

Can only speak anecdotally, but knowledge acquisition across diverse areas has been vastly enhanced.

Would relish seeing an optional dark-mode design scheme for users to choose in settings.

Apart from that, flawless & reasonably priced.

Highly recommended & has helped me to overcome a difficult recovery from mTBI - Post Concussion Syndrome (PCS) which had deleteriously impacted some mental faculties.

Being naturally ambidextrous has meant neuro-plasticity is already a proclivity, however my personal opinion is Elevate has aided in improving & optimising hemisphere synchronisation & overall mental versatility; whilst concomitantly stimulating noticeable progression in preciseness, decisiveness/reactiveness when required.

My preferred brain training app

2020-11-27

Version 5.35.0

I’ve used Elevate, Lumosity and Peak consistently, and Elevate is my preferred brain training app for learning and improvement. I love it’s clean interface, non-cartoon-like graphics, sounds, and that there’s no messing around with it. You go straight into the exercises at the level you’re at. You don’t have to select levels or options before every timed exercise. I still use Lumosity as well because some of their exercises seem to be more challenging at the higher levels. But I’ve reached the end of the top level in a few of their tasks and there’s nowhere left to go whereas Elevate doesn’t have levels.

Separate from the timed performance exercises to improve skill, having the option of differently-timed sessions purely for practice and enjoyment would be good. A whole app consisting only of Elevate writing/reading skills exercises would be my ideal!

Good in parts

2020-11-02

Version 5.34.0

Some weird choices of pictures for words; an example of this is the word “widespread” is illustrated with a close up picture of about a metre square of dry stone wall. I suspect that “widespread” is referring to the patches of lichen or moss growing on it, but since it is a small picture “isolated” and “confined” might be just as appropriate. :-)

The choice of words is occasionally wrong too (I checked several against Oxford dictionaries); an example is the use of the words “farther” and “further”. Despite this most of the usage seems to be right.

The speed reading is also a bit strange. People who read quickly tend to read whole phrases or sentences at a time. It might be worthwhile for the developers to add a section with a paragraph or two shown for a short time and then ask questions on that. Even so the speed reading section isn’t bad.

I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt with apostrophes for plural lower case letters, after all a’s and u’s might be less confusing than as and us. I still think it looks very wrong and would avoid the problem. Some authorities almost agree with Elevate, suggesting that it is advisable to use them.

The Maths (or Math) games seem good. The study section seems very good.

Overall not bad, still worth the five stars at a pinch, but could do better.

Version 5.30.0

I have used this for over a month found this an amazing app. Through the progress feature, I can tell I improved so much in only just over a month. The games are educational and fun to play and is a good example of gamification.

I do not have the premium however, I am satisfied with the free version. It does not have any ads and gives you 3 games each day that you can repeat 3 times.

I find it useful to compare my scores with other users but also how I can track my progress and see how far I have come using this app. I will highly recommend getting it and I have tried other brain training apps but this is definitely the best.

Great app for brain development.

Version 5.29.0

I am currently 3 days into my 1 week free trial and I am impressed with this app. Having feeling mentally exhausted with a new baby and not getting the mental stimulation whilst on mat leave, this app has helped immensely in helping me to focus and to challenge myself. I note other users have stated it’s a money grabbing app etc but I can see a lot of thought and effort has gone into creating this content so I will probably purchase going forward. Although, I would suggest creating a pay monthly version rather than a year’s subscription to cater to different requirements.

It’s great but...

Version 5.28.0

The game is an absolute winner teaching me things I never knew and showing me which subject I am weakest in, helping me a lot. But there is one problem! The mathematics games do not work! For example, the topic was division and the question was: 808 divided by 4= ? And so we all know the answer is 202 but when I went to select the numbers to add to create an answer, the total of all the answers was only 116 and that meant I could not haveIn any way made 202. That is why I love the app but am quite annoyed by this. On the other hand all the others work (I think) so this app is worthy to get AND IT IS KIND OF A FREE GAME all you have to do is not pay for the pro games and you are learning for free on the app so do not be discouraged by the “payment issue” because the first three training games are free daily.

Version 5.28.0

Please read this through I had to give a high rating before it would be posted. This app does not tell you that there are in app costs. Maybe I should of expected it. So you go through a few hoops including parting with personal data and then it says that they want money. I do not wish to use such an app even if it is the best thing since sliced bread. I would suggest you change the app to say in app purchases, like many others.. I have just tried several times to post this comment and hopefully I will get it through. I don’t think the company likes bad reviews. I had to increase the rating before it could be released.

Great, but...

I really love the app. I use it daily. I highly appreciate the absence of adverts of any kind. I’d be willing to get the paid version yet I wish there were more payment options that the annual membership. Perhaps monthly, quarterly or biannual payments would make more people willing to get the pro version. Or maybe even rewards. Say if someone completes all the sessions in a week then on the following day they can do maybe 4 if not 5 trainings.

Like the free trial but sub is too expensive

Version 5.27.1

I really like the free trial of this app, but I don’t know if I’ll continue with a paid subscription when my 7 days are up as the cost is too prohibitive for me. Which is a shame as I love the word games and improving my vocabulary, my reading and writing skills and so on. If the sub was cheaper or if it could move to a pay monthly model (at the same price or less as the current sub, but split into 12 monthly fees instead) I would be all for it. Please consider changing the pricing so more people can use it! Thanks.

What the heck

Version 5.27.1

When I first saw the game being advertised I really liked it because it could help me with my learning (I am doing my eleven plus very soon).

I decided to download the game the next day since I didn’t have my device. The next day I downloaded the app and it told me to take a test and answer questions and all that stuff. Afterwards, when I went to sign in with my dad and but my age in it said that you have to be older than 13 to play the games. My dad told me to delete the app because it isn’t age appropriate but I didn’t. I went back to the App Store and looked at the game and it said the age was 4+ so why in the heck of the world did the app say that you have to older than 13 to play.

I am very very upset that you have lied and that I cannot play the game. It is very rude to waste my time and give out false information to others. If you want to get the app and you are 4+ and 13- than please dont waste your time.

Please change the age rating on the description and male sure not to mislead more people.

Yours faithfully.

Version 5.27.0

This app is amazing for learning, it tells me statistics, gives me all the help I need and more. However there are many areas to improve, firstly I am only able to play 3 games daily due to the high price of pro. The pro is too expensive and is not worth £38! Yearly. I think it should be £10 yearly, or maybe free! Another thing that should be tweaked is that the pictures and ads only show the pro features attracting people to get the app and then gets disappointed by seeing £38 yearly. I think you should talk pro away, make everyone happy and give everyone all the games for free.

It would have been 5 stars but the money and expensive products is just disgusting.

Amazing!

Version 5.26.0

This games ticks all the boxes!

It is easy to control and looks appealing, which helps your motivation to do your daily session.

The games work well and progress emerges quickly, the study feature as well helps enormously.

Each day it prepares you a personalised session (resulting from your feedback) and it tracks how many days a week you manage to complete this, helping it turn into a habit.

The main thing I would change though, is options on whether to hide the timer on timed games, as although I am sure many find it useful I tend to be distracted by the wheel moving and my score goes down. Also on the processing game the way the blocks move below each word you read has a similar affect.

Other than that I am very pleased with getting elevate, I recommend it greatly to people especially who struggle getting into a habit of small sessions of brain training, this helps a lot with that!

It’s ok

Version 5.24.0

It’s a great app if you want to train your brain. But sometimes it glitches and the app comes off your phone, or sometimes it doesn’t count how many ticks you have got an you have to do it again. But other than that it’s fine. You have lots of different games to play and you study areas such as Reading Writing Maths and Spelling. It’s really fun. But sometimes if you get the questions wrong it gets you really frustrated (in my opinion). Really good to train your brain and helps you with school work. Especially if you have a big test coming up. It can help you to understand the questions better and if you don’t get what it means then you can just press the question mark button and you get it straight away. Like I said before the app does glitch not too much but it’s just gets annoying. Thanks for reading hope it works for u too babes.

It is a very handy tool to increase your language skills, wether this be writing, speaking, vocabulary or punctuation. The daily challenge is brilliant being able to pick it up for about 10 minutes everyday and do the challenges. Make sure to read the mistakes you have made and learn what you have done wrong, as it’s easy to rush though them and not take them in. Overall this app is brilliant for someone who wants to improve their English skills and taking 10 minutes a day to do this is quite mindful I find myself more relaxed after focusing on this task in the morning.

Nice game

Version 5.22.0

I really like this game and it has helped me with my maths and English knowledge. Overall the game is free and I have not had to pay so far but when signing up it does try to make you pay for a membership, it is not until you press the cross that it suggests a free account. I would thoroughly appreciate it if the creator read this review and addressed the issue.

I really like this game though despite the problem I expressed above, it is better than a lot of other educational games as it does not require you to pay at all to learn. If you are looking for a free educational app this definitely the app for you.

Thank you.

Does what it says on the tin, elevates, & enjoyable!

Have tried other similar games but this is great, eases you in to start with, shows you where you have gone wrong and allows you to then practice on anything you get stuck on, with me it was subtraction and I have improved, also averages, had no idea and now very speedy. Enjoy each days challenges, well worth the price as there is so much to this game. Purchased to keep my brain active I am 62, but it has given me so much more and is very encouraging when you get it right. Do not hesitate to purchase, I had a 7 day trial but knew after a couple of days I would be keeping. Well done Elevate, good title as that’s exactly what it does.

Version 5.22.0

Very quickly gave the bad impression of a money grabbing attitude. App looks “slick” but at every opportunity they are trying to force the naive to hand over details and buy buy buy. To be more in depth: Starts off with harmless base line skill test. Easy enough. Asks for email address, name and age, and then the next page is telling you it’s £40 a year after 7 day free trial (zero mention of free account at this point). You should not have to hand over personal information before seeing account options! So the naive might just say well ok if my only option is paid then maybe I’ll try it. It isn’t till you click the X button to say no that it springs the option of a free account on you in a desperate grab to keep you as a user. Honestly this whole starting setup was so off putting. Gave it the benefit of the doubt and tried a couple of tests. Found them confusingly explained and missing key information to complete the tasks without making unnecessary errors that would affect your end results. Glad it was a free download.

Brilliant

The app design and functionality is superb, hats off to the team behind it.

It’s an easily accessible training tool to sharpen your processing - it’s also really fun and addictive.

I would suggest the back up process between playing on different devices needs another look. Depending on the times I play, I will not have the data from playing earlier on a different device. (It’s not clear if that data is lost if I over write with new play data). However, this seems to work on a day by day basis.

Amazing!

Version 5.21.0

This is great for improving skills!! It improves your reading speed and understanding, it improves grammar and vocabulary, it improves spelling and it improves quick and mental math skills. I love the achievements I think those really help me progress, I also love the performance statistics, it shows you which subjects you are better in and which need improvement. I like the fact that there aren’t leaderboards to compare you to others or challenges that put pressure on you. The study materials are great they help in remembering useful materials. This app has particularly helped my math skills, it’s helped to improve my speed and accuracy and my understanding of the subject. I haven’t had a single problem with the app since I got it, and it’s had an impact on my marks at school and my critical thinking. A huge thanks to the people that made this and everyone else, you should definitely get this app. Btw it does have in app purchases but the app is still amazing without the upgrade, which I didn’t get.

Overpriced, good but not that good!

Version 5.21.0

Good Brain training games, covering a range of literal everyday tasks. It’s not trying to make you more intelligent, just better at the things you already do. It is very well presented, and if you like puzzles and mini games you will very likely enjoy it.

Bottom line, the developer wants nearly £40 a year for your privilege, and although the App does appear to get a lot of updates and added content it just isn’t worth it! That’s nearly the price of a AAA game on a console, and you only have to pay once for those! I don’t believe you should have to subscribe to this for anymore than £12/year, and even then I think I’d likely only use it on and off so would end up unsubscribing.

Would have been much better with a 6 Week free trial, and then a one off life time membership for £20. You would have enough time to see the impact and judge if you would like the App permanently.

Version 5.20.0

I tried this app out using the 14 day ‘free’ trial. As a 67 year old pensioner I feel that my cognitive skills are not what they used to be. However, after 14 days I decided that I just could not afford the expensive £38 annual fee and I went to cancel the subscription. That is where the problems arose. I could not work out how to cancel the subscription. Maybe I should have finished the training in order to master the cancellation process. Then on day 14, I was informed by my bank that £38 had been withdrawn. Since then I have done everything possible to get a refund without success. Elevate say it is Apple/iTunes that are responsible for refunds while Apple say I must apply to Elevate and I am left with a loss of £38 which I cannot afford. Think very carefully before you try this product.

Poor poor customer service, scamming for money

Version 5.19.0

Downloaded the trial - didn’t enjoy most of the games, the scoring system is weird and makes no sense to me, app feels chaotic to me - just not my cup of tea. Thought I had the day of the trial to cancel subscription but got an ANNUAL subscription by accident. I contacted them, and you’d think that as an honest company that wants their users to enjoy their service they would refund me. I would have even been happy to pay one month’s worth. But nope. No response. Haven’t even opened the app once since “purchase” so that it doesn’t appear as though I have been using it.

The mistake is mine for not cancelling in time, yes - but I think this speaks volumes about the owner’s integrity.

Good but room for improvement

2019-12-13

Version 5.19.0

I try to use the app every day, and I think it has helped me.

My biggest criticism is that many games are timed, and speed is too important in some games, to the point where it undermines the game. For example, in Adjective Recall you are supposed to be practicing your fanciest words, however, you are better off typing whatever mundane word enters your head first, and move on quickly. If you do come up with a high scorer like ‘discombobulated’, you actually end up losing points because it takes so much longer to type.

Another issue is that you are often timed while reading questions, meaning it is better to skim and guess, than to read carefully. While the app does encourage faster reading, there are exercises specifically for that. It would be nice if they tried to isolate reading speed more from the skill that is being tested. This is especially noticeable in games where you are looking for errors in a paragraph. If the paragraph is short or the error is at the start, then you will score higher than when the error is at the end of a long paragraph. This can make games feel quite luck based.

Because time is so important and questions are generally quite easy, it can often feel more like a reaction speed test than a ‘skill’ challenge.

Fantastic App

Probably one of the best brain games around, I have found this to be more effective than others I have played, they variety of tests, different subject, progress bar and calendar monitoring my activity makes this a great app.

My English is pretty weak this definitely helps, the reading speed really helps increase your ability to read and extract information quickly.

The various math problems and subjects make this app a complete app for brain training.

Nice app but expensive and not best for Brits

Version 5.18.0

I appreciate how attractive the app is. The games are stylish and the functionality is great. Unfortunately, I won’t be paying to use it after the trial period ends.

The games involving money use dollars and spellings are US English. It is enough of an annoyance to stop me paying a LOT of money to continue using it.

A lot of reviewers critisise the app for not advertising the automatic subscription after the trial ends. However, you have to accept this before you can begin the trial. I found it perfectly clear. This is standard money-grabbing practice which sadly occurs a lot on the AppStore.

As with many others, I have fallen foul to this in the past with apps and ended up forgetting to cancel before being charged. This is what the developers count on to make money. Going into your profile on the AppStore and canceling the subrscription immediately is good practice and will not deactivate the app until the trial period ends. Then you avoid being charged.

Great App...however

2019-11-11

Version 5.18.0

I am enjoying this App, however I have a little bit of feedback. Firstly, in the Clarity game, it was suggested to replace a phrase with ‘because’, but it was suggested that ‘because’ was placed at the beginning of a sentence. This isn’t correct grammatically, so I didn’t choose it and was penalised for my answer.

Secondly, in the Subtraction game, the glittering diamonds just where the answer should go are very distracting.

Thirdly one of the games, I can’t remember what it is called now, the weights and measures are imperial and there is no option to change them to metric which makes it difficult for us metric users in Europe.

Overall though a good App and I like to think I am making progress.

Many thanks.

Since deleting social media, this app has been great for when you’re killing time but want to do it productively. I found after using the app for a couple months it has improved my reading and writing skills tremendously. I spot errors in grammar(which makes me very popular at parties), see ways in which a sentence could be made simpler, or more impactful and found the app has developed my critical thinking skills. Oh, and I have also learned a lot of interesting words and facts from the app! 10/10 :)

I’m 34 and work in marketing data strategy. I started playing Elevate to improve my focus, critical thinking and overall cognitive ability. Was just going thru a self-improvement month I guess. I did it religiously everyday, after 3 weeks I noticed a difference. I found myself speaking more eloquently, coming up with solutions more quickly, and to my surprise, was able to manage my emotions better. I’ve realised exercising the mind helps in many areas of your life. This app is the best one I’ve tried.

Version 5.11

I downloaded this app a couple of weeks ago thinking I would give it a go every morning and try and get my mind a bit sharper. As soon as you download it there is a yearly joining fee of about £38!!! I accidentally clicked it not thinking, as many others have! I then realised what I’d done an emailed them begging to give me a refund and that I didn’t want the app at all. After some instructions sent back to stop the payment that were false and get you absolutely no where, I sent another email asking them to cancel the payment! Two weeks on now and the payment has come out my bank, even after the app was deleted immediately and I never used it once! Do not buy this app!!! Absolutely shocked and still not got a penny back!

Brilliant app!

Version 5.9.2

It's a wonderful app for improving your English skills. I would recommend to get a paid version as it's not that expensive and it helps you being consistent! Although, everything great, I would like to see more memory specific games. So you learn how to memories. Like telling a story word by word and when you have to put those words at the end. It's really great game, but it's hard to do it by yourself. Summarize, it's a good value of money!

Confusing free offer

Version 5.9.2

I signed up as I have had Anemia and it has effected how I think so thought this would help exercise my brain. I thought it was a free app that would have paid levels you have to pay to unlock. It is actually only a free trial.

The training is actually quite boring and I find it really annoying that all the spellings are American English which is different from how we spell in the UK and a little confusing when choosing answers because seeing a “wrong” spelling makes you think it is the wrong answer. Would be great if it detected your country and gave you the right spellings.

I also had no idea in App Store it would be over £30 so cancelled after free trial.

Version 5.9.2

I enjoy the variety of games in the relegate ap. I particularly enjoy the listening and reading games where the content is also informative and interesting and covers a wide range of general knowledge topics from geography to history.

In contrast I find myself feeling more motivated and engaged with the everyday life applicability aspect to certain of the maths games such as the one with spending each week and month and year. I appreciate the tips for completing sums in step form. I don’t really understand what the EPQ percentage means and it would be interesting to have this explained.

I would like to improve my conversion skills as I find this the hardest game, but also don’t find I am progressing very quickly with the game in its current format. In my every day job I have to note peoples weight and height in kg and cm and I could imagine breaking down this game into several easier step games with pounds and ounces related to everyday items weights and measures or shopping for example might help.

One of the best apps

Version 4.8.1

Since I started living in a non English speaking country, I decided to continue studying English daily, so I could keep my knowledge alive. Elevate helped me a lot with it. It's very smart and informative app. It helps not only to improve your English but also helps with math. It teaches history by making you to complete certain games and also understand the real meaning of words and how they are constructed. It also offers you so many additional info on grammar, writing, speaking, listening etc.

Really highly recommended!

Excellent!

Version 5.9.1

This is my daily wake up go to App to get my brain in gear. I eventually subscribed because, in my opinion, the developers are so deserving of support. It has definitely enhanced number crunching in my head - we’ve all got a bit lazy relying on the tech we carry around. It’s also highlighted my adjective recall weakness, an area where my memory has a history of letting me down. However, it’s improving with that daily practice - enough I hope to stave off any age related loss of brain cells! Love the slightly competitive edge too. Proud to be in the top 5% of users in my age group in both writing and maths!

Really beneficial even on high lebel

Version 5.8.1

So I work in finance and as a freelance editor and writer but English is not my native language. This app helps with minor kinks in my use of speech but mostly, with expanding my memory and improving my vocabulary. Only been using the free trial for now but really impressed with what I see and deem the £40 a year definitely worth it and might consider it in the future. For now, I like that i can only play 3 games a day to ensure I won’t be sucked into playing for hours each day!

Amazing!

I started using this app over a year and a half ago, largely to begin challenging myself and my knowledge and comprehension, with maths in particular. I simply love the way that Elevate enables me to learn something new every day and develop my confidence with mental processing and comprehension. The app has become part of my daily routine, especially since it is a great way to wake up and prime your brain before a busy day. I’ll be a subscriber for a long time to come. Highly recommended.

Version 5.5

I have been using it for a couple of weeks and I am really enjoying it. It has a beautiful interface and the exercises are a joy to play.

One improvement I can think of would be the ability to “play a random exercise” from the activities page, as the vast list of activities can be a little overwhelming.

This could be built upon by being able to choose the amount of random activities you want to play, giving users the ability to create their own training sessions outside of the daily training.

Amazing!

I love Elevate, the games are varied and mentally stimulating, and I can see my performance improving over time.

Regularly I experience an issue (also experienced by my family) where game won’t load, claiming an error downloading the game and advising me to check my internet connection. I have a decent fibre connection and excellent 4G signal. Usually swapping from wi-fi to 4G fixes it, but today neither connection works. Please investigate and resolve this bug developers, then I’ll give the 5th star.

Version 5.0

I’ve been using Elevate on and off for a year and a half (with a long period of absence). My thoughts:

I like:

- Overall, the number and quality of the games is excellent. The listening, writing and mathematics games are particularly strong.

- The app looks good and the interface is intuitive.

- The difficulty adjusts to your level for each game. Even after hours of training, I’m not yet bored of the sessions.

Areas the app could improve:

- The consistency of the quality of the games is patchy. For example, Connotation and Error Avoidance are much less stimulating than games like Refinement and Association.

- The study materials section could be developed further. It doesn’t feel joined up with the training sessions well enough.

- The ranking and progression features I find unconvincing. Ranking should compare you with players with the same amount of time put into the game as you. As it is, my 96th percentile rating on writing is inflated because my score (as far as I can tell) is the result of a comparison with people who have only used the app once or twice.

The million dollar question is whether the training sessions have application outside the app. Does the app improve overall cognitive performance or does it just train very narrow skill areas that have little crossover? This is difficult to assess as an individual.

Excellent Brain Training

Version 4.8.1

I really like this app so much! I have the free version and I can certainly see how having the pro version would be great. However the free version is ad free, there are games you can play and earn games by consistent training. I have found my ability to do maths sums in my head has greatly improved and my enunciation too. The subject snips in the reading and listening games are educational within themselves. It is one of my favourite and well used apps. I highly recommend it. I have a disability which involves cognitive issues and I have found this helpful with that.

I’ve opted in for the free 2wk trial where you can play as much as you want and I’m loving it. Seriously considering paying the £40 per year... the games are fun but interesting at the same time and I have already noticed the benefits when I’m at work. You can chart your improvements and try to keep bettering your own score and there’s a good amount of games to play in each category... reading, writing, maths etc. Would definitely recommend.

Great! Although sometimes crashes!

Version 4.8.1

I love this app, the games are challenging, well designed and even the sound effects are excellent. I love it so much that I have a premium subscription. The only issue I have is that it sometimes crashes on iPad. It seems to crash at the same point, right after you complete a game and before your results are displayed. I hope that this will be resolved in the next update. Apart from that, if you’re looking for a diverse range of well designed “brain training” games, then this is the best on the App Store!

Version 4.8.1

I installed the 14 days trial of this game. I enjoyed it without getting crazy about it. One day it stopped working as the trial was over and I just moved on. Some days later I received an invoice for £38 for a year subscription I didn’t ask for. Maybe something was mentioned when I installed the game but I can’t recall it and I usually set a reminder to avoid mistake of the kind. What is certain is that I didn’t get any reminder when the game stop working. I’m not interested nor can afford such expense. Since the invoice offered the option to, I have reported I didn’t mean to subscribe but no reply neither from Apple nor from the developer. I reported it 5 times! Can someone please get back to me? Thank you.

Version 4.6

Impressed with this app. It covers many subjects and adjusts to your level to ensure there is always a challenge. The games are different enough in their presentation and when you go wrong there is an explanation and also the opportunity to review recent issues you may have.

Once you have gone through the initial assessment, the app sets up daily sets of games to tackle but you can play any game available to you.

There are games to unlock and additional study areas that can be accessed once you have unlocked them.

I’ve been using the Pro trial version which is free to use for 14 days but I intend to purchase.

You can use this for free but the number and types of games available is significantly reduced. For example Maths.
