Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Memory Athlete at 100% against Train Your Brain's 49%. Memory Athlete also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). Train Your Brain's advantage is ratings volume (5.7K vs 3) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Train Your Brain sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Memory Athlete sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Train Your Brain holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Train Your Brain has 5.7K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Train Your Brain's written reviews are positive against 100% of Memory Athlete's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Train Your Brain ships an update every 3 months, Memory Athlete weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
