### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2020-12-21*

Couldn’t even open the app

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-10-14, version 3.20160822*

Crashes when launching

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2018-04-22*

App wont open. Crashes when ever I try

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2017-10-22*

Good flash card format to speed memorize the basics. Just getting started so this is very helpful at this point. Thank you Brainscape!

### 5/5 — Great way to learn Blackjack

*2014-11-30*

I like the use of flash cards. Been using this app off & on for less than a day and I'm already looking forward to playing at casino.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2014-10-21*

I wish I would have found this app 2 months ago when I started my knowledge and strategy quest about all that is Blackjack. I kept finding basic info about it everywhere I looked but I have to say that this app has put me in a whole other level of understanding now after studying this. Great app.

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2014-06-25*

Very good for learning.

### 3/5 — Good for practising

*2014-02-13, version 2.20140122*

Despite only being able to practice with the basic strategy for 2 deck games, it's a pretty good app

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2013-06-21*

Excellent study method for anything. Highly recommended!

### 2/5 — Erroneous info

*2013-05-09*

The concept is good, but some of the answers provided as basic strategy are just flat out wrong for any normally found variants of Blackjack.  The app said that I should double a soft hand against a dealer 7. I don't know of any blackjack game where basic strategy says to double any soft hand against a dealer 7.  The app also said that I should surrender a hard 17 against a dealer face card. Again, never seen any basic strategy for any number of decks that suggests surrendering a hard 17. I stopped after several errors like these.  The recommendations provided here would push the house advantage to a ridiculous level.  Not recommended for learning proper basic strategy.
