Train your brain with BrainHQ from Posit Science—the most rigorous program available for better brain health, and the only one backed by more than 100 scientific papers showing benefits - including the breakthrough NIH-funded ACTIVE study. Now with new features that contribute to your brain fitness success!
BrainHQ represents the culmination of 30 years of research in neuroscience and brain health. Top scientists from around the world helped to develop and test the BrainHQ exercises. The result: a training system that comprehensively improves brain performance, from the most basic elements of perception through the most complex elements of memory, attention, and cognitive function.
No other brain fitness program can match BrainHQ in scientific proof. More than 100 publications from independent, randomized controlled trials have shown that the exercises and assessments in BrainHQ drive real change. These changes include:
• cognitive improvements, such as better memory and faster processing speed
• real-world improvements, including safer driving and improved quality of life
• physical brain changes, like healthier white matter and more coordinated neurons.
All of this means that BrainHQ works—in laboratory studies, and in the lives of everyday people:
•"BrainHQ is a no-brainer must-have in my book…This training has expanded my visual, fine-tuned my audio and even my reflexes seem to be getting faster. BrainHQ is fun and gives me the challenges I need to keep my brain working out on a daily basis." - C. MacDonald
•"Only a few months into the BrainHQ exercises the difference is clear, this isn’t left to speculation, I saw drastic improvements…and my family has noticed a strong improvement." - A. Amitrano
And leading publications agree: “Our testers concluded that Posit's product—one of the few so far to undergo clinical trials and peer-reviewed research—had the firmest scientific grounding.” - Wall Street Journal
The BrainHQ app helps you set and achieve your brain training goals—so it not only works, it works for you.
Each exercise adapts to your performance and gets more challenging as your performance improves, just like a personal trainer for your brain.
The training is designed to fit into your life: train for just 5 minutes in your spare time, or do a complete workout in an hour.

I love knowing that brainhq trains my brain where I need it
Rebekah Raftopoulos
I am so glad that I discovered brainhq. As a lifelong learner, I have found it easy to keep my brain agile and fast in areas of interest which have developed into my strengths. However, now that I’m in my 50s, I notice that I need help to strengthen other brain functions I have not focussed on, I guess because I know I have weaknesses in these areas. I feel confident that my personal trainer in brainhq will help to retain capacity in my memory as it changes with age. The after sales support is excellent and I have bought gift subscriptions for my children so they too can build capacity in overall brain function. Thank you to all the researchers and entrepreneurs who have made this possible.
It’s ok

It might improve focus a little, but is no match for simply reading a book. This app doesn’t provide thinking puzzles/problems, it focuses on more fundamental aspects of thinking that feed into the intelligence required to solve problems, understand complex ideas, etc., like attention, focus and more. Except the facial expressions. What is that? Didn’t someone else prove that many facial expressions can be misinterpreted out of context? And many of the games seem to test the speed of your vision, which has always been fast for me, based on what my friends tell me compared to them. How does this help? I just played the flower matching game for the first time and was immediately in the top 1%. This hasn’t helped me in my everyday. And many of the games seem to have foreground and background designed similarly to confuse what you’re seeing. How does this help?And there’s way too much animation between screen transitions. WAAAYYY too much!!!Just read a book and track your own focus, attention and comprehension while you read and you’ll get better benefits than these games.

You get what you put in

This is no walk in the park. The exercises push all our cognitive buttons, they are frustrating at times, but with diligence and application will render results. Sometimes I would like to get some strategic advice on how to best approach some of the exercises, but perhaps these would only suit some folk as we have different ways of processing information.I give this 5 stars because it is meticulously designed and far reaching in its scope.
Do the exercises every day?
