SequenceTrainer is designed to help exercise and track the health of a person's working memory. It should also be of benefit to those preparing for the WAIS-IV and WISC-V assessments. SequenceTrainer presents the user with random sequences of either digits or letters to memorise, after which they must reorganise the sequence according to the specific test type and then reenter the result for scoring. Scoring is weighted to encourage improvement, while the length of sequence is automatically increased, in step with the user's ability. Multiple statistics chart the user's progress and past test results are stored for future revision. The app supports extensive options for creating custom exercises that accommodate a wide range of users, with diverse cognitive, and physical abilities.
