Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: EncephalApp at 4.6 against Brain Test's 4.1. EncephalApp also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). Brain Test's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (71 vs 5). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Brain Test sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. EncephalApp asks for nothing beyond the download.
EncephalApp holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brain Test has 71 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of EncephalApp's written reviews are positive against 72% of Brain Test's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EncephalApp ships an update every 4 months, Brain Test every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 6, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
