Peak is a comprehensive brain trainer.

Review Peak – Brain Training: Brain Trainer

This app contains dozens of games developed in collaboration with scientists and universities. The exercises are not chosen haphazardly, because research shows that they can improve people’s cognitive skills.

You closely monitor your progress in Peak. First indicate what you want to train, such as your memory, language skills or concentration. After you have created an account, various training sessions are available in the main window. Start with a so-called assessment training to determine your current level. For example, a beginner exercise is to tap as many numbers as possible from low to high. You also have to draw a path past hidden obstacles and make words into words from random letters.

The Dutch instructions for each exercise are nice. Afterwards you can see how you perform compared to other users. That can be quite confronting. The makers of this beautiful app recommend that you train five times a week.

Take some time to get used to this app, because the user interface is very extensive. For unlimited access to all exercises you need a subscription. That costs € 37.99 per year.
