Brain Gym Daily has six short games for memory, focus, quick reactions and maths. A workout takes 5 to 20 minutes. Each game adjusts to you. Do well and it gets a bit harder next time; have a bad run and it eases off. Your first workout starts with a short check to find your level in each game. Reaction Control: tap when the target shape appears, and hold back for any other shape. Colour Conflict: the word RED might be printed in blue. Tap the colour of the ink and ignore the word. Memory Match: squares light up one at a time. Tap Match when the lit square is the same one that lit up a set number of turns earlier. That number depends on your level. Spatial Sequence: watch the squares flash, then tap them in the same order. Rule Switch: the screen says COLOUR or SHAPE, then a shape appears. Sort it by colour or by shape, whichever it said. The rule keeps switching. Number Sprint: quick sums with four answers. Pick the right one before the timer runs out. The app only compares you with your own past results. There's no leaderboard. You don't need an account. Your results stay on your phone, the app works offline, it doesn't track you, and it has no ads. Every game has a help page that explains how it works. There are also six short guides, including one on whether brain training works at all. You can play all six games for free in the daily workout. Pro is a one-time purchase. It lets you play any game on its own, see your whole history, open any past session, and get a short note each day about your training. You can try Pro free for 7 days, and you won't be charged when the trial ends. This app is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and it does not measure intelligence.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mental Math at none against Brain Gym Daily's 2. Brain Gym Daily's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
