User Reviews: Dual N

Top reviews

  • App is defective

    I can’t hear the letters, so I don’t know when to press the ear.
  • Best one I’ve found

    This is the best Dual N Back app I’ve found. The interface is clean and I find it offers the right amount of flexibility before moving on to the next level.
  • So far love it! Will see if benefits come later

    I love the minimalist design. I wouldn’t recommend changing that or I might not use the app anymore. I care more about seeing if playing the game truly improves my working memory.

    I’ll play it for a few months probably to see what happens. Finally can near perfectly do N=2, and now am aiming to perfect 3.

    The research is controversial on if this truly works, but at least it isn’t completely unsupported. I guess I’ll find out for myself! :)

    ^(sidenote: it always seems like psychology is still a a field with very many unknowns that we are trying to discover. So, in a way, by trying the app we are on the frontier of new discoveries!
  • More user control please

    Please allow the user to choose which level to use. I understand the research the app is based on. That said, choosing levels could be an added feature. Make it a feature only accessible to people who purchase the app, if that’ll motivate you. Sometimes I want the option to choose levels!
  • Love it

    It came recommended in “Game Changers” book. Love it. Simple interface, does what’s promised, pushes you to the next level without ability to just get relaxed at previous level.
  • Sound doesn’t work

    Just downloaded version 2.4.2 and I can’t get any sound. I’m running the latest version of iOS (v12.2). It says for bug fixes to use the Feedback menu item under credits, but there is no such item. Pls. Fix this bug!
  • Great, stop complaining about the stupidest things.

    People are upset about the way that you cannot customize this. Truthfully, all i wanted was an app to help me maintain my genius IQ or possibly grow it. And this does just that and i am okay with that.
  • Love concept but has constant accuracy errors

    I love to utilize this app in my cognitive therapy pts; however I find that the accuracy provided in the app is always incorrect.
    If I knew that this app would provide more accuracy for my pts I would utilize it more for them to complete home practice.
    So basically I cannot recommend this app with its current inaccuracies.

    Developer Response

    Could you elaborate on this by sending feedback via the customer feedback button from the help sections of the app please. It is not clear from your review how the app is inaccurate.
  • Needs manual N setting

    The program automatically increases the N setting without an apparent or intuitive way to manual override it and set it where you want. That’s a problem.
  • Please add entire alphabet

    Would love to support and pay for premium. Only improvement holding me back is the lack of certain letters. Please add the entire alphabet and will go premium.

    Other less vital improvement suggestions. Would pay for these features.
    - Option to adjust the daily completion goal to be less than 20
    - Add a calendar to check off completions each day, this helps to motivate habit
