"EEG Waves" is a system designed to conduct sessions during which data on the user's emotional activity (states of emotional relaxation and concentration of attention) are recorded. Based on the obtained data, a graph of the dynamics of changes in wave activity, emotional state and a circular diagram of rhythms is plotted. The application provides the ability to export data, save and view the results of sessions, mechanisms for filtering them by dates and custom ranges. The mobile application is part of the "EEG Waves" system. You must purchase a MINDO device (or BrainBit) to conduct sessions. Detailed information about the system can be found on the official website of the manufacturer.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Myndlift at Free against EEG Waves's $24.99. Myndlift also leads on rating (4.8 vs 2.5) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 12 months). EEG Waves's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 61%) and chart position (#77 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Myndlift holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Myndlift has 1.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Myndlift's written reviews are positive against 100% of EEG Waves's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Myndlift ships an update every 4 days, EEG Waves every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
