Ape Test app for iPhone and iPad
Test and train your photographic memory! Can you keep up with the chimpanzee Ayumu?
You have to memorize the positions of up to nine numbers within a very short time span.
The chimpanzee Ayumu accomplishes this masterfully, even if he has seen the numbers for just 210 milliseconds.
The human test persons undergoing the same test performed worse. What about you? What can you grasp with a glance?
For training you can set longer time spans (and less than nine numbers). There is even a special setting for hiding the numbers only when the first one is touched. Ayumu did start his training like that, too, by the way (although he did have to learn first that numbers are ordered).
You can track your progress with several statistics (Ayumu prefers raisins ;-).
The application is based on real trials with chimpanzees which were performed in 2007 in Japan.
Pros and cons of Ape Test app for iPhone and iPad
Ape Test app good for
I love this app. I believe it to be a very worthwhile addition for anyone interested in working with their brain.
I wish however, that the developer would consider adding levels of 6 and 8. That would make it more valuable for people who use it seriously.
This app works smoothly and Id recommend it to anyone looking for good memory games.
Letters and symbols should be added in addition to numbers.
I highly recommend this app to everyone! It is an excellent test of reaction time and is a challenge. This app is well-designed and is fun/addictive. I enjoy using it.
Some bad moments
Why in any level other than infinity as soon as you make a mistake the numbers will not show again? Is this a bug or part of the game ?because its pretty useless in those scenarios.also the sound cant be turned off .can it be fixed? Im using iOS 7 on iPad
