### 2/5 — To many

*2026-09-08, version 1.42.0*

There is just too many add this and don’t give me wrong. It’s good but I just can’t keep on seeing the apps like on TikTok. I’m scrolling every five videos I get an ad about this or two videos like yes it’s good but I don’t wanna keep on seeing it. OK that’s fine but seeing it multiple times during scrolling on TikTok, I just can’t sorry but I have to give you two stars cause you really makes me mad.

### 4/5 — Fun and Interesting

*2026-09-07, version 1.42.0*

I’m learning a lot of interesting things

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2026-09-05, version 1.42.0*

Love Spark! I’ve learned so much. It’s very well done, original and clever. Really love the addition of  Hindsight,  very challenging with wonderful graphics. I don’t think there is anything like this app. It takes a moment to play but Sparks a lifetime of knowledge.

### 5/5 — Brain game with a twist

*2026-09-05, version 1.42.0*

Really enjoying this game! I love the themes of the day and I feel I learn something new each time I play. It’s really fun and interesting!

### 5/5 — Learning something new

*2026-09-05, version 1.42.0*

I am Learning something new everyday!  This is fun too

### 3/5 — Spark

*2026-09-05, version 1.42.0*

Enjoying this game. It test your ability to think and make decisions based on what you know.

### 5/5 — Learning made fun!

*2026-09-04, version 1.42.0*

Great app to expand your general knowledge. The free tier offers 3/5 games so you can still enjoy the app without paying.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-09-04, version 1.42.0*

This is my favorite game. It’s a lot of fun and it adds the background Information. I am learning so much.

### 5/5 — Spark: Daily Learning Puzzles

*2026-09-04, version 1.42.0*

A fun and very informative app

### 5/5 — Easily the best learning game

*2026-09-04, version 1.42.0*

Enjoying the games and the topics!! I look forward to the topics every morning when I play with my morning coffee. Kinda wish you all came out with a monthly newspaper subscription. Would be fun to see the games adapted for analog :)

### 3/5 — Ads & Streak

*2026-09-03*

I really liked the app before but since they added ads for their plus subscription it just annoys me. Plus there is no way to save a streak when you missed a day and that threw me off using the app because I lost my streak. Fun and interesting puzzles tho.

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We know ads aren't everyone's favorite, and we'll pass your feedback along to our team as we continue improving the free experience. We're sorry to hear you lost your streak. Please contact us at support@playsparkapp.com so we can further assist you.

### 4/5 — Pas mal

*2026-09-03*

Très ludique et intéressant, dommage qu’on ne puisse avoir accès qu’aux trois mêmes jeux avec la version gratuite (et qu’on n’aie pas de différents proposés chaque jour comme sur Elevate)

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share this. We really appreciate hearing from our members, and we'll pass your feedback along to the team for further consideration. If you have any additional feedback, you can email us at support@playsparkapp.com anytime.

### 5/5 — Super fun game/puzzles!

*2026-09-03, version 1.42.0*

I love how every puzzle is new and also how interesting all the themes are!

### 4/5 — Love it

*2026-09-03, version 1.42.0*

I love to read and learn. Always have. This app is interesting and informative.

### 5/5 — Get it.

*2026-09-03, version 1.42.0*

It’s completely free unless you get the plus version, it literally teaches you something new everyday they aren’t lying and it’s such a fun way to learn too. Theres no reason not to get this fantastic app just do it. Also check out elevate it’s really good.

### 5/5 — I’m cheap

*2026-09-02, version 1.42.0*

This is a great app. But I’m cheap lol. I wish there was like a $1.99 tier that included the archive but didn’t include knock out and/or the other new game.

### 5/5 — Fun & informative

*2026-09-02, version 1.42.0*

I really like the game because it tests your knowledge but also teaches you many new things. The only issue that I have found if the developers are reading this is while playing Chrono I will drag the piece to the right point in the timeline but when I release it, it slides down a spot and I end up getting it wrong. So I don’t know if there’s a way to adjust the sensitivity?

### 5/5 — Getting knowledge every second

*2026-09-02, version 1.42.0*

I couldn’t be happier after I found this app. It gives me lot of cultural information by playing games. You feel smarter by acquiring so many facts related to everyday general knowledge. I am sure at least one member of each worldwide family would find it interesting and resourceful. Make it popular, please. It’s fantastic and funtastic! 👍🏽

### 5/5 — Fun and easy way to learn

*2026-09-01, version 1.42.0*

It's free mode still has a lot to offer surprisingly most definitely worth the subscription too if you're a daily user!

### 1/5 — Wanted to play, however you can’t for free

*2026-09-03, version 1.42.0*

This seemed like a fun game, however it will not let you play unless you pay so I don’t pay to play anything. I ended up deleting the app because it will not let you play free.

### 1/5 — Major oversight

*2026-08-28, version 1.41.0*

Not eveyone will be using this app on a phone. I have this device called an iPad. It is used generally in the landscape orientation and apparently your application has never encountered one of these. Turning my iPad sideways is very inconvenient in the case it is in which is designed for landscape mode. I downloaded and deleted your app all within one minute as soon as I realized you don’t work in landscape mode. In my opinion you blew it big time

### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-08-27, version 1.41.0*

You have to sign up for a free trial and then cancel.

### 1/5 — Another cash grab disguised as a good cause

*2026-08-21, version 1.40.0*

Nothing on the Apple Store page said it was pay to play and that is very disappointing. I breezed through my 3 free games and really thought this would be an interesting game so I’m very sad to be proven otherwise. It’s advertised as a replacement for scrolling brain rot but once again learning isn’t free and scrolling is, and yet we wonder why the rot continues. Very disappointing. Really wanted to enjoy this one.

### 1/5 — Pay to play

*2026-08-21, version 1.40.0*

The first few days I got a couple puzzles for free, and was satisfied with that. Now, absolutely everything is locked in the app if you don’t have spark+, which is outrageously expensive to begin with.

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2026-08-20, version 1.40.0*

This said that daily puzzles (at least 2) were available with the free option, but the second day that I opened it, everything was locked and it said you had to upgrade. This shouldn’t even have free to download as an option if you have to pay after playing two games for one day.

### 1/5 — No longer free

*2026-08-20, version 1.40.0*

Had been playing for over a year, then my puzzle froze one day so I reinstalled the app. Now I cannot play any of the puzzles without subscribing. It sucks because it was something my wife and I would play every morning and compare scores. It was our thing ya know. Now we don’t have that anymore.

### 1/5 — Where’s the free version

*2026-08-16, version 1.39.0*

I thought I’d be able to play at least one puzzle a day but I can’t even do that, everything’s locked behind a subscription.

### 1/5 — Great!

*2026-08-12, version 1.39.0*

Maybe you could add a mini test at the end. Love the app!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work…?

*2026-08-10, version 1.39.0*

New user here 👋 it gets stuck on the “what are you interested in learning about” section so I haven’t even been able to start the app up! I’m still interested in the game if there is a fix for this (I’ve updated to the latest update of the app on iPhone 17 Pro).

### 5/5 — Light a mental spark

*2026-09-08, version 1.42.0*

Great for challenging your thinking skills

### 5/5 — I great start to my day

*2026-09-08, version 1.42.0*

I love doing the puzzles everyday. It’s a great way to add knowledge in subjects I may never discover on my own.

### 5/5 — Smart

*2026-09-08, version 1.42.0*

Engages knowledge in fun and creative ways

### 5/5 — Great & unique app for anyone curious about the world around us.

*2026-09-08, version 1.42.0*

Spark is incredibly simple to pick up, start and get addicted. The games are fun and ur learning every step of the way. 

10mins a day. Download it, thank me later. Enjoy!

### 5/5 — Intriguing factoids

*2026-09-08, version 1.42.0*

Great puzzles that are fun and intellectually stimulating. Love them!

### 5/5 — An improvement

*2026-09-07, version 1.42.0*

This game is good. I love it, but you know what I can make it even better you know how after you finish how after you finish a puzzle you get points because of the facts that you finish do you know what you can do? You can show the fact that that equal to this point get it.

### 5/5 — Really cool learning tool

*2026-09-07, version 1.42.0*

Every day one can learn about something new. Today, clowns; yesterday, baby animals; in the past, photography, time travel, space travel, the human digestive system, the tongue. The five games include putting events on a timeline, deciding who’s (or what’s) better at something, slotting things on a sort of mind map, a vocabulary exercise, and the newest one, guessing the date and location from a photo. You may not love every day’s subject, but there will be enough subjects that get you excited. Also, there’s access to the whole past library (or some of it anyway.)

### 5/5 — Mind blowing facts

*2026-09-07, version 1.42.0*

Learn something new and fascinating each time you

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-09-05, version 1.42.0*

Informative and entertaining.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-09-05, version 1.42.0*

A really fun way to learn new things. 15 minutes away from doomscrolling. I really like this app
