Bei jedem Klick merkt man, dass hier ein Profi am Werk war(ist!), der sich auch noch und gerade in einen Anfänger hineinversetzen kann und sehr viel Zeit in Aufbau und Struktur der App gelegt hat. Intuitiv erschließen sich individualisierte Bilder, die sich auch mühelos wieder verändern lassen. Langweilig wird es auf Dauer sicher auch einem Profi nicht, da man per CSV Import bei Bedarf in der Lage ist, das vorinstallierte Mastersystem in englischer und deutscher Sprache auf drei weitere zu ergänzen; auch sind 3er Kombinationen generierbar. Und sollte man sich in den ganzen Einstellungen und Möglichkeiten irgendwo verlieren, steht der Entwickler persönlich zur Unterstützung zeitnah zur Verfügung. Diese App ist jeden Cent wert und für mich die Beste im Store- klare Kaufempfehlung! ### 5/5 — Like it *2018-11-01* This App will make it a lot easier for me to learn the major system.. ### 5/5 — Toll *2018-01-17* Ich habe innerhalb kürzester Zeit alle Zahlen gelernt. Wirklich toll gemacht. Übersichtlich und ansprechend. Zur Übung und Festigung wünsche ich mir noch Spiele z. B. gegen die Zeit spielen. ... ### 5/5 — Einfach super!!! *2017-10-13* Da war ein Meister am Werk. Meine Empfehlung: kaufen! Es macht Spaß und bringt was. Mehr geht nicht. ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2017-04-14* As the title suggests, this is an excellent app allowing anyone to easily and quickly learn the Major system. Using this app for practice I can now recite pi to 200 decimal places without any difficulty and am learning the next hundred.... Go ahead and download it..... You'll be hooked in 10 minutes haha ### 5/5 — Gut durchdachte App *2017-01-21* Eine sehr gut durchdachte und hilfreiche App. Sie hat mir das Lernen des Mastersystems deutlich erleichtert. Ich hoffe nur, dass es irgendwann noch ein Update gibt. **Developer response:** Hallo Nschaefer123, vielen Dank für das positive Feedback. Seit heute ist ein Update auf die neueste Version verfügbar. Die wichtigsten Neuerungen sind eine bessere Unterstützung für größere Displays und eine neue Funktion im Trainer - die individuell einstellbare Gridgröße. Damit läßt sich die Anzahl der möglichen Antworten jetzt an die eigenen Vorlieben anpassen. Ich freue mich auch immer über direkten Kontakt, Anregungen und Wünsche per E-Mail über support@glab-apps.com. Der Support ist auch direkt aus der App, über den About Screen erreichbar. Viele Grüße und schöne Ostern Gerald ### 5/5 — Top *2017-01-20* Sehr hilfreich das Mastersystem zu erlernen und bis zur Selbstverständlichkeit zu trainieren. ### 5/5 — Endlich eine geniale Mnemo App *2016-04-18* Ich war lange auf der Suche nach einer App die individuell anpassbar ist und mit dieser App bin ich endlich fündig geworden. Super App und der Support 1 A nochmal 5 Sterne. Freue mich schon auf weitere neue Funktionen! ### 5/5 — Super Gedächtnistrainer *2016-01-21* Absolut empfehlenswert für Einsteiger und Fortgeschrittene zum Thema Mastersystem! Einfache Erstellung und Bearbeitung von Mastersystemen und tolle Abfragemöglichkeit, die nicht nur schnell zu Verbesserungen führt, sondern auch viel Spaß macht. ### 5/5 — Simply the Best *2015-05-11* This app is a godsend. If you want to master a Major or Dominic mnemonic number system this is an excellent application. The website help is excellent with concise directions. The app makes it very easy to plug in pictures you choose off the web or your photo album to match your numbers. The game of matching is especially helpful with the plus of picking out the range of numbers / photos to play with. It keeps your interest which helps when learning. I come to this as an older adult who doesn't mentally visualize well. Practice with this application is helping that. Finally, it's simply wonderful to go from learning about these techniques to actually practice them. If you're new to this memory technique I strongly encourage you to do a little more reading on this technique or learn about it via a youtube video and then come back to this app. And check out his Mnemo Route application too. The developer's feedback was quick, cordial and helpful when I had a question. I'm using his app on an older IPad 2. I hope he comes out with an Pad version. ### 5/5 — Awesome Trainer for Memory Systems *2015-04-26* This app is impressive for its functionality and worth the price. I am a newbie in learning the major system, but not for long! ### 5/5 — Alles, was ich für das Major-System benötige!!! *2015-04-19* Wow! Ich habe früher immer mal mit Listen und so weiter geübt, aber bin nie "fertig" geworden und habe immer wieder aufgegeben. Mit der App aber habe ich alles an der Hand und das üben macht auch Spaß. Ist den etwas höheren Preis voll und ganz Wert! Empfehlung! ### 5/5 — Good app *2015-03-04* This is a good app for learning the major system and gives you a way to add your own numbers and build a custom major system image list. ### 5/5 — Genial für Einsteiger *2015-01-04* Ich habe mir diese App zum Einstieg und Training geholt. Perfekt. Schnelle Fortschritte inklusive. Die Trainer Modus Zahl > Bild und Bild > Zahl inkl Zeitauswertung ist sehr genial. Ich habe sofort gesehen, wo ich noch zulegen kann. Nach und nach täusche ich die Bilder gegen meine eigenen.... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not impressed *2017-11-03* Not sure what the other reviews are on but it lacks a user friendly UI. I'd recommend saving yourself $10 and using another developer app. **Developer response:** Dear K. Cantu, The UI is optimised to best help you with learning the Major System. If you have questions I recommend contacting support. This is easily done from inside the App. Choose Info - Contact Support. Best Regards Gerald ### 3/5 — Ok so far. *2023-07-08* But very expensive, shame the other app mnemo route isn’t included which would at least make it feel better value. I wouldn’t really recommend it at this price, and given the number of reviews it seems that that is the general consensus. ### 3/5 — A few issues for an expensive app. *2023-01-26* Conceptually this is the perfect app for training major system fluency, I like the trainer. The first thing I did was turn off images… although memory palaces are made of images, the ones here have too many interpretations. I don’t know what a macaw looks like, that picture is clearly a dart and not an arrow, how do I tell this is the sun and not the sky, etc. You are able to edit the words and pictures, but I don’t feel like spending the time to redo the entire set of 100-1000 flash cards. Thankfully, you can switch to words only, which is especially necessary if you break into triple digits… some words don’t seem to have photos or be translatable into a photo. Many of the 3 digit words I have never even heard of and while they’re fine for the trainer it makes the generator less useful since the words are impossible for a layman to imagine. There’s another major(heh) issue where sometimes Sh- words are interpreted as S words and get quizzed wrong. I also think this app would be better off with text input as an option in word to text, since it can sometimes clue you in on the right choice by elimination. I wouldn’t nitpick like this but this app is absurdly expensive for what is essentially flash cards, honestly you might be better off getting Anki and downloading someone’s major system set. Please take better care in your app development if you’re going to set the price this high. ### 3/5 — Some nice ideas and implementation but annoying details to work through *2019-02-03* Nice clean Interface and training ideas, but if you’re an American you’re going to have to get over some unusual choices for photos. I had to simply memorize them the way the developer intends us to, and move on. For example I sent this to Support but never heard back: Sauce -- shows more strawberry than sauce, and chocolate is not a common "sauce" Waste -- shows a typical holder of waste rather than actual waste Sour -- shows a lemon, which has a sour taste in the juice, but on a big list of nouns having a photo represent a "taste" is inconsistent. Perhaps a face with a sour expression is better Ice -- Americans think of ice cubes from the fridge, not ice crystals that are hard to see on the phone photo Tea -- Americans almost never drink tea out of a clear glass jar. Looks more like honey Ham -- looks more like a cut of beefsteak than the way ham is often prepared Arrow -- very clearly NOT an arrow. That is what is called a "Dart" Team -- would be better if one at the top was not red and all the others white, making us think of the individual at the top, not the whole “team” Door -- more of a cartoon of a door, or a toy, than a typical door. Very few people have blue doors Douche -- Not a good word for American English. Nut -- most people think of walnuts, pecans, cashews, etc. NOT coconuts Weiner -- the word is singular, so the photo should show just one Nail -- the word is singular, the photo should show just one Ink -- should just show the inkwell, NOT the pen Knob -- Americans think of the device that opens a door as a knob. The photo is of a "button" Moss -- looks more like "sprouts" or soemthing. Moss is usually seen as a green growth at the base of a tree or on a rock. Mommy -- would be better if the mother was the focal point of the mommy picture, not the baby Match -- word is singular, the photo should be Rat -- the photo is very clearly what americans consider a "mouse". The grey Norway rat is what we envision as a rat Rome -- the photo is of a dome-like building shape used in many governmental buildings in the world. Better an image a thing in Rome that has a distinctive shape that is unique looking on a 15x15 millimeter image Rock -- word is singular, image should be of just one Robe -- photo shouldn't include the face of a person as the focal point Light -- of all the 1,000,000 of classic, real, day-to-day lights we all see, why choose a photo of an imaginary one coming off of the thumb that barely shows the light part? Lamb -- word is singular, image should just be of one Jewel -- tough one. Image is too close to "gem", another 2-number word Judge -- Americans think of images of people who serve the role of judge, Not a statue of a Greek goodess of judgment Sheaf -- tough one, but a sheaf of papers is more pertinent to modern lifestyle Ship -- Very unusual ship. A typical "ship" would be an ocean liner or warship. Your image is very clearly a "ferry" Okra -- outright wrong. That is not what okra looks like. Okra is green. Your image is of a pepper Cook -- your image is of a hat. A "cook" is either the person who cooks (in which case a person wearing the hat with an apron makes sense) or it is a verb to cook (in which case a person in the act of cooking say on a pan at a stove. Fuse -- the image is of an obscure type of fuse few non-auto-mechanics see. A classic 1960s "breaker box" fuse would make more sense Foot -- Word is singular, photo should show just one. A ballet-position posed photo of 2 feet with a flower as the focal point is especially misleading Foam -- Image is of "bubbles". Foam is generally white and the bubbles in foam are too small to see. Fig -- Maybe that is an image of a fig, but most would think of cactus rather than fig Fife -- To Americas a fife is a small wooden flute. The image is of a "pipe" Fob -- The image is of a "watch". Fob is hard, but the image is not good. Bat -- sure that might be a bat, but Americans generally think of bats in flight, where we might see their distinctive wings Bone -- A bone alone is much better than a bone in a bowl Pool -- too much going on, especially for a small photo on a phone. The image very well could be a beach coastline. Pub -- image is of spigots to pull beer. A pub image would better show the front of a pub establishment on a city street. **Developer response:** Dear aoeui555, It is not recommendable to stick with the placeholder images of the Mnemo Major System Trainer. For best results in memorizing you should create your own customized major system. This is exactly what is supported by the App. For each number to memorize a comprehensive collection of alternative example Major System Terms is provided to choose from in the edit view. Alternative images that suit you more can easily be chosen from camera, photo album or the integrated web search for images. A detailed description how to edit the major system is provided from within the app in the integrated manual. If you still have problems customizing your major system please contact support. Best regards Gerald ### 3/5 — Presets are poor, but you can override them *2018-02-19* A lot of the preset images are counterintuitive or wrong. For instance it has 88 mapped to fife, but a picture of a smoking pipe is set for that word. **Developer response:** If you have any suggestions about better preset images, please contact support. This is easily done from within the app. I always appreciate valuable feedback. Best Regards Gerald ### 4/5 — Nice App *2015-04-18* The manual was offline the day I bought it, so I had some trouble finding a few of the features. But once I was able to read the manual everything was easy to use. This is a nice, clean, pretty app for organizing major system images. I think I'll get a lot out of this app. ### 4/5 — Customization makes it Very useful *2014-06-07* Excellent app, with customization of words/pics you can select words that better suit your memorizing. Just would like to see randomization so as to concentrate on the numbers you are having issues with, so you can strengthen them more. ### 4/5 — Great app but... *2014-05-17* This is a phenomenal app and everything I was looking for in implementing the major system. This app also allows me to get a lot more comfortable with my 2 digit major system from 00 - 99. I love how it allows me to take pics or find them so easily from them web. I only have one issue: there is little malfunctioning going on in the finding pics from web process. For example: for 22, I picked an image of a nun. Then at 28 I was trying to pic an image of a knife. However, everyone I would select the image for the knife, it would revert it back to the image of the nun for whatever reason. All I had to do was exit out of the app and re enter. However, this has happened multiple times and it's a little frustrating with a list of 100 words. Please fix this issue and I will promptly give a 5 star rating. Most of the times it works flawlessly though. Sincerely, Qazi. ### 4/5 — Great app for learning major memory system *2013-11-15* I tried an number of apps before mnemo, and all did one thing ok, but mnemo does does it all well! From choosing images from web for your nuemonic's and creating your nuemonic's, to training I think this is the best app for training your memory. 4 stars instead of 5 because there are some minor changes I would like to see such as number/word training and being able to re-size images. ### 5/5 — Trainer funktioniert nicht mehr *2024-10-27* Eigentlich eine gute App. Allerdings lädt der Trainer bei mir nicht mehr :( damit habe ich 15€ in den Sand gesteckt. **Developer response:** Hallo Subway King, bitte schreibe mir eine e-mail, damit ich dich bei Deinem Trainer Problem unterstützen kann. Dies ist einfach aus der App heraus möglich. Bitte gehe zu Info - Feedback und Support - e-mail senden. Vielen Dank Gerald ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Tolle App *2024-04-15* Wirklich sehr empfehlenswert. Zahlen bis 99 sind jetzt ein Kinderspiel dank dieser App ### 5/5 — Praktisch und motivierend *2023-12-31* Eine ansprechend gestaltete App mit klarer Struktur und gut durchdachtem Funktionsumfang. Individuelle Bild- und Begriffauswahl sowie die Einstellung der Reaktionszeit-Grenzen garantieren einen schnellen Lernerfolg. So macht das Training Spaß. ### 5/5 — Great App with Unique Functionalities *2022-10-26, version 3.1* Mnemonic is powerful yet a niche community making it hard to find useful resources. I have always used notes or excel to create my personal PAO/Major System but this app facilitates everything. It’s easy to use and has great functionalities. Although the app has been around for years and might not be popular, the developers recently (2022) started providing new updates to ensure it functions properly and even added new features. I recently contacted support and got a response within hours, which is impressive given it was launched nearly a decade ago. Very happy with the app and its developers and highly recommend it to anyone interested in creating or improving their Major System. ### 5/5 — Nach dem Update auf Version 3.0 perfekt *2022-03-19* Die App war schon immer sehr gut. Mit Version 3.0 kam eine iPad-Variante dazu und der Import von Bildern ist jetzt per Drag&Drop über die Files-App möglich. Auch kann man Mnemo-Listen jetzt mit Bildern exportieren und auf einem anderen Gerät wieder importieren. Das Trainieren der Mnemo-Liste macht Spaß mit dieser App. Im Playout-Modus werden Begriffe, die man falsch beantwortet, solange erneut angezeigt, bis man sie beherrscht. Begriffe, die man richtig beantwortet, werden dagegen nicht erneut angezeigt. So übt man besonders die Begriffe, die noch Übung brauchen. Wenn man eine Antwort falsch antippt, dreht sich die Antwortkarte kurz um und zeigt das Bild oder die Zahl der falschen Antwort an, so dann man auch gleich erkennt, was der Fehler war. Danke an den Entwickler für diese tolle App und den netten Support bei meinen Rückfragen! ### 5/5 — Love it. *2021-06-21, version 2.6* Simple, easy, reliable. Never disappointed me like other apps of this kind. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Gut durchdachte Lernsoftware *2021-04-12* Sehr gut gemachte LernApp. Auch die Individualisierung ist einfach und schön gelöst. ### 5/5 — Für Mnemofreunde absolut fantastische App *2020-08-17* Ich bin Zauberkünstler und Mentalist und benutze verschiedene Mnemosysteme in meinen Shows- entweder direkt als Zurschaustellung unglaublicher Fähigkeiten oder als Tool, um mir Abläufe, Zuschauer, Texte und Zahlen zu merken. Diese App hier sieht modern aus, lässt sich frei mit eigenen Bildern und Begriffen füllen oder bei bestehenden konfigurieren und bietet ein Training, das Spaß macht, so dass die Zahlen bis 99 bald kein Problem und weitere Zahlen/Bilder bis 999 leicht möglich sein werden. ### 5/5 — Beste App für das erlernen des Major Systems *2020-01-08* Danke! Ich habe mal angefangen, aufgehört und fange jetzt wieder an. Die App hilft mir sehr dabei weiter zu kommen und mir passende Bilder zu merken. ### 5/5 — Empfehlenswert *2019-05-16* Wer das Major-System lernen oder vertiefen möchte ist mit der App gut beraten. Ich hatte noch ein paar Schwierigkeiten mit dem Ex-/ Import von csv-Dateien, doch dank der schnellen und freundlichen Unterstützung des Entwicklers konnte ich das schnell lösen. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
