### 1/5 — Counter-productive!

*2024-04-14*

Spontaneously forces ads in between games without prompting, no option to pay for the game to opt out of the ads.
 The ads actually break your concentration and irritate you while you’re trying to focus, making the whole experience rather frustrating and feel like a waste. 
Major flaw. 
I would have paid for this app to be ad free, if I had the option.

### 1/5 — Bash

*2023-04-23*

Have to bash the screen for the result to be recorded.
Gave up and deleted it.
Shame, because it’s a cute app and game.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-05-06*

Start at level 1. Memorize two images. Next screen shows a large group of images. Find the images you were shown in the previous screen. Images from previous screen don’t exist in the find screen. Try again. Same result. Try again. Same result. Try again. Find one image of the two because only one image exists. Timer never stops counting. Close and delete app.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-10-11*

Not worth the download due to number of ads

### 1/5 — Bad design causes failures

*2018-11-03*

Poor design causes you to get a “fail” before you are done

### 1/5 — Argh scrolling

*2018-06-07*

Like the app, but all options should fit on one screen (iPhone). Almost impossible to scroll down without accidentally hitting a picture, then get a fail! Stopped using solely because of this. Makes it unusable.

### 4/5 — Good memory game

*2022-10-04*

I wish it had options to switch between words and pictures and offered more interpretation of what to work on.

### 5/5 — Enhanced memory

*2026-03-17*

This is the best memory practice game I have found as a senior with Parkinson’s

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-07-10*

I love this game, simple and fun. I only wish there was a way to buy more illustrations, or more levels, or ad free playing

### 5/5 — Pjfoxz

*2024-06-25, version 5.0.1*

Nice one!

*2020-11-08, version 4.0.5*

Great app , if only graphics are bettero

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-04-28*

Very simple and good.  However, I would pay in order to get rid of advertisements.

### 5/5 — Worried about my memory

*2020-02-19*

This game is hard but I finally remembered everything on level five. I’m hoping it will help my concentration and memory overtime.

### 5/5 — I really appreciated this

*2017-03-25*

This is really useful, for me and my shot memory.

### 5/5 — Great and Useful App
