User reviews

Good, but…

The app occasionally does not register touch input immediately. During a timed test, I selected the correct answer, but the app did not initially recognize my tap. For timed activities, the touch response needs to be more accurate and consistent, since even a small delay or missed tap can affect the user’s score and overall experience. The answer selection interface should have cleaner input recognition and more reliable feedback when a choice is pressed.

Thanks

Doesn’t work

I can never actually play the games. It just asks me to log in over and over. Terribly glitchy.

Very good exercises 2 stay sharp

I’m enjoying this application and the learning it provides for me are practical, life changing and useful to make my life simpler and more healthy. This is in using their activities to improve what I do, think and practice. Good job AARP!
