【About SpatiaQ】 SpatiaQ is a science-driven spatial intelligence training app powered by 50 years of cognitive psychology research. We decompose spatial reasoning into five independent dimensions, transforming complex cognitive training into engaging, interactive experiences. Master spatial thinking. Know your SQ. 【Five-Dimension Spatial Training System】 Mental Rotation - Master 3D shape equivalence recognition through rapid rotation - Science: Shepard & Metzler (1971) landmark research - Real-world: Engineering, architecture, CAD design - Key Metric: Rotation recognition speed (°/ms) Paper Folding - Predict how 2D nets fold into 3D cubes - Science: Shepard & Feng (1972) classic study - Real-world: Package design, architectural visualization - Key Metric: ETS standardized scoring Perspective Taking - Rapidly switch viewpoints to understand spatial relationships - Science: Huttenlocher & Presson (1979) cognitive framework - Real-world: Map reading, navigation, game control - Key Metric: Error rate & reaction time Block Assembly - Reconstruct 3D structures with minimum steps - Science: Miyake et al. (2001) cognitive model - Real-world: Spatial decomposition, problem-solving - Key Metric: Operation efficiency ratio Navigation - Find optimal paths through mazes; strengthen directional sense - Science: Tolman (1948) cognitive map theory - Real-world: Route planning, environmental adaptation - Key Metric: Path efficiency & step optimization 【Your Spatial Quotient (SQ) Score】 - Precision-calculated from five dimensions - IQ-scale scoring (M=100, SD=15) - Personalized: compared against your own baseline, not others - Instant: baseline SQ on your first training - Tracked: daily snapshots reveal your progress curve 【Why SpatiaQ Stands Out】 - Science-backed: Every training mode is rooted in published psychology - Adaptive: Intelligent difficulty scaling based on your performance - Anchor-equated: Special items prevent difficulty drift from affecting scores - Privacy-first: 100% local data storage—nothing uploaded - Beautiful: Stellar Dark theme with smooth 3D rendering - Multilingual: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese 【Perfect For】 • Anyone curious about their spatial thinking strengths • Students: boost geometry skills and exam performance • Professionals: architects, engineers, designers upskilling • Puzzle enthusiasts: scientifically-backed cognitive training • Gamers: sharpen in-game spatial awareness 【Why Choose SpatiaQ】 Unlike casual puzzle apps, SpatiaQ delivers: 1. **Real Science**: Rooted in 50+ years of psychology research 2. **Global Benchmark**: Compare your SQ with worldwide norms 3. **Privacy Armor**: Offline-first design; zero cloud uploads 4. **Smart Difficulty**: Anchor-item equating ensures fair scoring 5. **Progress Tracking**: Watch your cognitive abilities improve over weeks 【Completely Free】 All five training modes unlock immediately—no paywalls, no ads.

IQ Test

IQ Test measures your reasoning across seven areas used by standard mixed IQ batteries: matrices and number grids, logic and letter sequences, spatial reasoning, numerical reasoning, classification, analogies, and verbal reasoning. Every sitting draws a fresh test from a bank of 424 questions in 19 different formats, so no two runs are the same. Figure questions give six answers to choose from, as progressive-matrices tests do, and the bank includes paper folding, balance scales and logic puzzles. Questions ramp from easy to genuinely hard, and the hardest ones stack several rules at once, the way real progressive-matrices tests do. Take the full 42-question test in 35 minutes, or a quick 21-question version. Everything is drawn right on your device, so the whole test works offline. SCORING THAT RESPECTS DIFFICULTY Your score is estimated with a 1-parameter logistic (Rasch) model, the same family of item-response model used by real tests. Each question sits at one of five difficulty levels, and because ability is measured against those levels rather than as a raw percentage, different random tests give comparable scores. NINETEEN QUESTION FORMATS - Figure matrices: 3x3 grids built from several parts, with rules for shape, size, shading, number and position stacked across the rows, and six answers to choose from - Number grids - Figure series and letter series - Spatial rotation of mirror-image figures, and paper folding - Number series across many rule families, shown with enough terms to pin the rule down - Balance scales: work out what weighs the same - Numerical word problems: rate, ratio, age, clock and work - Classification: figural and numerical odd-one-out - Analogies: figural, numerical and verbal - Verbal reasoning: ordering, syllogisms, if-then logic, codes and arrangements WHAT'S INSIDE - 424 unique reasoning questions across 7 categories - A different test every time: fresh, balanced, difficulty-ramped draw each run - Five difficulty tiers, from single-rule warm-ups to multi-rule matrices - Full test (42 questions, 35 minutes) and quick test (21 questions, 15 minutes) - Timer, progress bar, one question per screen, swipe or tap to move - Estimated IQ score with percentile on a normal distribution - Category breakdown across all seven reasoning types - Share your score as an image - Free: every question, your IQ, your percentile and the breakdown across all seven areas - No ads, ever - Optional one-time purchase: the full report, with every answer worked out - Fully offline. No accounts, no tracking. FREE, AND WHAT IS NOT The test is free and stays free: all 424 questions, the full 42-question sitting and the quick 21, your IQ, your percentile and the breakdown across all seven areas. There are no ads and no subscription. The full report is a one-time purchase, unlocked once and yours for every test you take afterwards. It adds every answer worked out with the rule written in plain English, your score with its 95% confidence interval, a sub-score for each of the seven areas with the range it actually pins down, your history on one chart, and a certificate. ON A WIDER SCREEN On an iPad, or an iPhone turned sideways, the test opens as two pages: the question on one, the answers on the other, the way the paper booklets it imitates are laid out. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://legal.unreel.ae/privacy/iqtest.html IQ Test is designed for entertainment and self-practice. Every question is original, written for this app in the style of established reasoning formats. Scores are estimates based on your answers and item difficulty, and are not a clinically administered IQ assessment.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: IQ Test at none against SpatiaQ's shown. SpatiaQ's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
