Two cards face down. You flip them, remember where they are, and find the pair. Three seconds in, your visual and spatial memory is already at work. Recall Trainer is that simple challenge, built for learning and for training, for adults and seniors alike. WHO IS IT FOR? • Adults: a brain training session of a few minutes a day. The big boards, up to 78 cards, demand attention, concentration and a working memory in good shape. • Seniors: start with small boards, let a voice read each card aloud, and keep your mind active a few minutes every day, at your own pace. • Learners: words, numbers and letters to memorize, and a foreign language to discover pair by pair, read aloud in the language you choose. WHAT MEMO TRAINS Visual memory, because you have to recognize the pictures. Spatial memory, because you have to remember where they are. Auditory memory, because every card can be read aloud. And concentration, because a 78-card board is never won while thinking about something else. FOUR WAYS TO PLAY • Classic: 25 levels, from 2 to 78 cards, in five difficulty bands. • Time Attack: start with 30 seconds; every pair adds time and every cleared board adds a bonus. • 2 Players: take turns on the same device, the perfect memory duel with a partner, a friend or the family. • Educational: 25 ready-made activities to read, count, memorize or discover a language, plus a custom mode where you pick the image, text, voice and language of each side. TEN CARD PACKS Animals, food, music, sports, faces, emojis, numbers, words, lowercase and uppercase letters: more than 1,000 cards. The free edition includes the Food pack and lets you try the others. One purchase, All Packs, unlocks the ten packs for good, removes the limit on two-player games and removes the ads. ALSO • Card backs, decorations and layouts to unlock by playing. • Progress kept on all your devices with iCloud. • Available in 24 languages, on iPhone and iPad. Recall Trainer keeps its familiar wood-and-slate look in a refreshed interface. A memory game for the whole family, where everyone moves at their own pace.

Learn the basics of French, with instructions pronounced in your mother tongue ? Yes, that is now possible with Basic-Français.

Ludo and Vic were created to represent all the peoples of this World and to promote gender equality. They let you discover French through dialogues (in French) which cover many aspects of daily life.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: BASIC at none against Recall Trainer's shown. BASIC also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Recall Trainer sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and BASIC sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
