IQ boost App Reviews

The n-back "game" (more like brain training) is fiendishly difficult and the graphics and voice are well implemented. Unfortunately on iPad2 running iOS7 it never goes beyond the first game in a series so all the nice features of automatically fixing the level according to previous results and allowing me to choose the number of games I want to try in a series cannot be explored. I would love to give this app a 5 star if ever this is fixed

It doesnt automatically go to the next set but gets stuck, please update

Great app for anyone looking to challenge his or her brain! Ive read numerous articles stating that this type of training (dual n-back) is one of the only proven methods of increasing IQ.

I am honestly disappointed about the game. If I could go back and get reimburse, I would. The game has no graphics, it is very repetitive and basically not fun... Especially not at that price...

This is not a "fun game". It is, however, an excellent implementation of the dual n-back system that has been shown in actual studies to improve fluid intelligence. When you first start playing the game, it can be extremely frustrating. But if you keep it up. You will improve, and the game becomes easier—at least until you progress to the next difficulty setting. From my own experience with playing the game, my ability to recall information that Ive read or heard (on a short-term basis) has seemingly approved. The developers have done a great job designing an simple but still attractive user interface. They have also included an excellent tutorial mode, which should make the rules of the game, which can seem confusing or counter-intuitive until you see them in action, obvious. If you are looking for an app with addictive gameplay, you will be disappointed by IQ boost. But as Ive already mentioned, IQ boost, does not seem as though it is supposed to be a fun game in the traditional sense. The dual n-back game is a real mental workout—according to the studies results at least— and playing IQ boost feels like real mental exercise. Like a a real workout, IQ boost is tiring, when your timed session is over (the studys authors measured fluid intelligence increases when subjects played the game for 20 minute sessions) you will be ready to do something else. But like a real workout, the results should make you smile

A solid implementation of the Dual N-Back game (search it on google). Practicing this exercise daily will improve your IQ. I hope the developers continue to improve it to offer a compelling alternative to the free versions available for Windows/OSX/Linux such as Brain Workshop.

Well designed simple application that does what its supposed to do... and well. The price seems a little high for what it does, but it does have a limited audience, so that might be justified. I would like an explanation of how the "score" is calculated. Potential idea: provide the ability to upload your progress to a server. Perhaps also provide IQ tests over set intervals to help gauge the hypothesis of the article that this application is based on.

Does exactly what its supposed to. The high score page is tremendously motivating, and its free! How can you argue with that? To those who complain its not fun enough: its not designed to be fun, its a tool for increasing your working memory. Weightlifting isnt designed to be fun either, but tons of people do it anyway.

Free! Free?! Cant complain people this has everything it needs, to do what its intended to do, its really that simple. Also, its free now. Supposedly this app is better then the rest and it has a low rating, unbelievable. Been going at it for the last day and a half and Im up to level 3. Might be a placebo but I feel smarter already, lol. Give it a try, be persistent, dont give up, and remember there are no shortcuts someplace worth going! Big up to IQ Boost. Cant wait to be an Einstein.

cannot change the number of games as the app freezes after I finish the first game. this is very irritating. other than that it would be 5 stars but it kind of ruins it for me.

Ive been waiting for an update for forever! After I play a game it just freezes instead of showing my score. Make an bug free update please!!!!

Other than that its the best n-back app.

This is best dual n back app, the others arent as good as this one.

I want number support in addition to shape and audio!

The only missing thing is to arrange the speed of the game

The app freezes on iPhone 6

stops responding at the first level. settings: 2-back dual. IOS 8.2

This was my favorite app on my phone! But now (iOS7) it’s broken. (Game results do not show after round is finished).

Plz, do something with bugs, i use this app everyday, but now i think change it.

At The end of a game does not display results and freezes the display.
