Elevate is a collection of activities that train a variety of mental abilities. Elevate allows you to develop up to 14 different skills, and it is really interesting to complete tasks!

By going to the Puzzles category in the App Store, you can find many good games that will build your mental capacity. But still, games are, first of all, entertainment and only then an opportunity to move your brains.

The Elevate app is a collection of cool tasks, each of which is aimed at developing a specific skill. Speaking, speed of processing information when reading, focusing - for all this, you can find a specific exercise in Elevate.

In total, you can develop 3 skills. Purchasing a subscription allows you to increase this number to 14. At the very beginning, Elevate will ask you to choose those skills that are of priority for you. The home screen looks very simple.

It is worth saying that the tasks are really difficult. The first task, which develops spoken language, I passed the first time; the second has already required several attempts. The third never gave in to me. I'll try again later, but I'm a little disappointed in my abilities.

In the first task, which develops spoken language, you need to choose a word in a sentence, without which it will not lose meaning. For example, in the first sentence it is the word "original", in the second it is "in size" and so on. After completing each task, statistics are shown, and in the long term, you can compare your progress with past attempts.

The second task develops the speed of information processing when reading. That is, you can find out how much you will remember by reading a book or article fluently. It was done very cool. A pyramid of words is built on the screen at different speeds (the farther, the faster). Our task is to memorize all the words, link them together and answer the question about this text.

In the third task, which develops memory and helps to remember words, you need to make a word from these letters and its definitions. This is where I passed. My knowledge of English was not enough to pass the test on the first try.

By the way, it was made in a very interesting way. With each guessed word, one crow flies away, our task is to drive all the crows away.

The free version of the application imposes the only limitation - the number of games. You have 3 games available, buying a paid subscription gives you access to all 14 games.

Whether it is worth paying $ 9.99 per month for a paid subscription is up to you. There are no special restrictions in the free version, so you can use it as well. The Android version of the app is out on June 6th. Elevate is a great brain workout and you should definitely try it!
