SynapseGym: Brain Test & Focus

The biggest update yet: every exercise rebuilt, plus new exercises, a meditation voice and a journal for your reflections. Exercises • Every exercise reworked. An incoming notification no longer ends a round, and higher levels are noticeably harder. • Before you start, you see the exercise's actual board. • New exercises: – Tower of London: plan in as few moves as possible, with planning and execution time measured separately – Multi-Interference (MSIT) – Color & Shape: bind features together – Choice reaction with 2 to 4 fields – Counting on Places – Color or Word: sometimes the color counts, sometimes the word – Resource Management: a new planning puzzle • More detailed results: – The attention networks test shows alerting, orienting and control separately, in milliseconds – Stroop, Flanker and Multi-Interference show how much time distraction costs you, task switching shows what switching costs you – Trail Making scores parts A and B separately • Memory: – Dual N-Back with spoken letters – Episodic memory now also asks, after a pause, where things were – Elite working memory: every round can be solved – Digit span and number sequences fit even the smallest iPhone • Word games: in Anagram, every word you can build from the letters counts. Word Sprint recognizes words in your app language and has a new first-letter level. • New results screen with your numbers instead of grades. Records and starting levels are now kept per exercise. Calm & Meditation • New meditation voice in German, English, French, Spanish, Japanese and Korean, female or male. • Meditations keep playing when your iPhone is locked and can count as Mindful Minutes in Apple Health. • Guided sessions with silence between the words, in 5, 10 or 15 minutes. Reflection • Thought Log, Activity Planner, if-then plan and Values Compass are saved and appear in your journal. • The Thought Log shows what changed, e.g. "Anxiety 80% → 45%". • Optional reminders for planned activities. Around the app • New: daily ritual, "Your mind, measured", skill history and monthly letter. • Settings and profile tidied up, plus data export as JSON and the option to store data only on this device. • You can now go back during setup, and Premium is only offered after day seven. • Better translations in all 34 languages.
