Well executed. ### 5/5 — Super pour intégrer et pratiquer le major système *2022-10-22* Le fait de pouvoir personnaliser les photos est top ! **Developer response:** Merci pour votre commentaire ! Bien d'accord, la personnalisation est clef dans les techniques de mémorisation. ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2022-07-13, version 4.9.12* A simple, easy to use app that could be a great intro to memory techniques for newcomers. Sprinkling in the short explanation lessons between cards is Beth helpful as well. I’ve been looking for something like this for a long time! The price is also very reasonable. I hope to see more updates or further development of similar apps in the future! I’ll be showing this to a ton of my friends. Well worth it! ### 5/5 — Superbe *2022-06-18* Je recommande cette application. Elle est très bien pensée et facile à utiliser. **Developer response:** Un grand Merci pour ta review Elie, enjoy ! ### 5/5 — Bingo calls *2022-01-22* It’s a lot of fun, because the app is super adaptable, I replaced all the shape cards with bingo call rhymes lol, and personal mnemonics, now I’m mesmerising numbers fast and having fun **Developer response:** Sound you make a great use of the app ! Thanks a lot for the feedback, it's so nice to see it used for new purposes. Enjoy ! ### 5/5 — Very well done app *2021-02-06, version 3.0.6* I have been wanting to apply this memory technique since I read about it in Unlimited Memory. But like any skill you can develop, it requires some effort and practice. I didn’t want to put in the time to make a n Anki deck for my number pics. But this app has done most of the work for you! It uses spaced repetition which is the closed thing to a direct download into your brain that we have right now. The controls are intuitive and easy to use. There could be a little more explaination behind why the pictures match. Once I realized it was a peg system converting numbers to sounds it made sense. The pics are easy to change, though you do need them to be the right size or you’ll only see part of them, BUT over all, aside from a few pics the don’t resonate with me, it is a very well done app. Edit: ### 5/5 — Simple utile et efficace *2021-01-26* Enfin, une bonne application, simple, rythmée par de petites videos qui permet d’apprendre une table de rappel. J’espere qu’il y aura d’autres application ce genre sur les techniques de memorisation. Merci **Developer response:** Merci pour cette super review ! Oui, de nouvelles APPs à venir avec des techniques de mémorisation plus avancées et autre grand sujet: l'apprentissage des langues et des caractères chinois pour commencer ! ### 5/5 — Application facile d’utilisation *2019-04-05* Très bien pensée et facile à utiliser une technique pour mémoriser les numéros originale et efficace ! Je m’entraîne dès que j’ai un moment de libre ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Preset representations aren’t obvious *2020-04-10, version 2.3.1* Preset representations aren’t obvious, and I don’t know how they’re interpreting the picture with the number. Are you guys at least able to give the reason for the numerical interpretation or at least assign them according to the major system? ### 3/5 — Lumosity *2023-07-12, version 5.5.1* I like really works my brain My girlfriend My girlfriend My Girlfriend ### 3/5 — Déçu de la nouvelle version *2021-04-25* L ancienne version était mieux, La nouvelle version a été bridée. Cdt **Developer response:** Bien désolé de lire cela... Pourtant, pour continuer à travailler sur cette APP et développer de nouvelles fonctionnalités et de nouveaux decks, il faut bien qu'une partie passe en premium. Ici aucune fonction n'est complètement bloquées. Simplement, pour utiliser l'application intensément (>25 swipes par jour) il faut s'abonner. Des suggestions: ginkgo.memory@yahoo.com Merci ! ### 3/5 — Bien mais bugué *2020-12-02* Bien la nouvelle vidéo d’introduction mais la nouvelle version est toute bugué, les boutons du haut ne fonctionne pas, et bizarre de tout pouvoir swipper, c’est pas clair.. :-/ **Developer response:** Bonjour, bien désolé de lire ça...Il semblerait que le transfert des données de l'ancienne version vers nouvelle version ait beugué. Si vous désinstallez/réinstallez l'APP tout rentrera dans l'ordre. Si les bugs persistes vous pouvez me contacter par mail pour corriger le problème. ginkgo.memory@yahoo.com ### 4/5 — Great for learning, a bit hard to play with *2024-05-14, version 5.6.4* I really liked the concept and I could see results straight away, what I didn’t like was the swipes to either side, it a bit hard to do it and need to do it two or three times each image, which I believe it affects the progress stats. ### 4/5 — Thanks given *2023-10-23, version 5.5.16* It’s the very excellent application that have a gorgeous background , but I have one critic that it’s why this app don’t allow you to rename the name of the card while allow you to change a image of cards. There is a excellent app without doubt, but I hope some more updates will come soon. ### 4/5 — A good app that could be better with slight tweaks *2021-05-08, version 4.1.1* I think this is the best app associated with the Mnemonic Major System. Although my complaints are very minor, I think they are valid. The most recent update made the app weaker instead of improving it. I don’t like that the pictures don’t have a word associated with the image. I think this would be beneficial to new comers. This is a feature that was available in previous iterations of the app. Also, you can change the image, but not the text associated with the image. So if one doesn’t like the word and wants a different term to help learn the system, the user has to remember the term (the point), but hard when still learning. I would like to see more info regarding the background Mnemonic Major System. Again, helpful to newcomers. I had to temporarily delete the app. When I searched for it, “Ginko Memory” did not bring up the app. However, “Mnemonic Major” did. A slight clerical error on my part, but I think it would help. This is an issue with search terms and not the app itself though. I love this app and as mentioned above, I think it is the best one around. I would give this a 4.9. It has such minor flaws, but I hope these flaws are addressed to improve it. ### 5/5 — Great *2025-01-29, version 5.6.4* Great application ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-04-13, version 5.6.4* Teaches memory to a fine degree. Why it’s not in school taught idk ### 5/5 — Good so far. *2024-03-10, version 5.6.4* Good so far. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Génial *2023-11-22* Génial C’était méthode est très utile pour tout celui ou celle qui veut améliorer et entretenir sa mémoire. Les explications sont claires. Merci **Developer response:** Merci pour votre commentaire, ça fait plaisir de voir l'app utile et appréciée 😁 ### 5/5 — Seems to be very good *2023-03-20, version 5.3.22* I just downloaded it today. Seems to be very useful. I’ll review more when I’ll learn more. ### 5/5 — Well done! *2023-02-07, version 5.3.22* Great app. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2023-01-18* Très utile cette appli de table de rappel **Developer response:** Merci ! ### 5/5 — Rare *2023-01-18, version 5.3.22* Not one to write reviews. Had to make an exception for this app. Simple and effective ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-11-29, version 5.3.15* Really helpful for the shaper or any memory system ### 5/5 — Optimistic *2022-11-23, version 5.2.1* I’m optimistic that this “Unlimited Memory” system could be improved to be a better memory system for my personal use and others. I have Dementia and was considering this system to help with my memory, however, before I could invest in this system it would need to be improved. Ie: the flash light was number one and later a man holding a hat in front of his face was a number one. They both can’t be number 1. The flash light should be number 1 and the man holding the hat could be number 10. Number 3 was a women biting into a strand of hair, and then number 3was a house. The shape of the letter numbers should conform to the image. The duck should be number 2 not a chicken standing on one leg. The number 78 is a target, and the whale number 5. Neither of these images look like a five or 78 to me. The guy in the armored suit an 01, and the elephant a 19 were good and that made sense. If your going to present it this way I would need a deck where I could associate the image more closely with the number. Ie: number 2 a swan, or number 9 a balloon on a string. I would like to pick cards in my deck that have images that more closely resemble the numbers that you assign and I think the association make sense, like the man on a cliff with the cliff resembling a number 7. Good luck. I will look forward to this system getting better. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
