Lumosity Questions & Answers

Question 1

Question:

Is it possible to have a free trial with lumosity? Is it possible to have a free trial with lumosity?

Answer · 2015-07-21T02:41Z

Answer:

There is a free trial, but it is not indicative of the whole site. As with Brian S I can only underline what he says, and keep right away from it. Lumosity is actually run by Google, and I think it's more a case of information gathering dressed up as an online fit brain exercise programme.

It has helped me remember phone number, people's names, gaming recal and password recall. It has improved my ability to focus, task change and use peripheral vision and direction. Hope this answers your question.

Question 4

Question:

Is lumosity good or bad? Is lumosity good or bad?

Answer · 2015-08-09T07:19Z

It is neither good or bad. Your intention for using it and frequency of practice determine if it will help you in a positive way. Some people will not be very challenged because their mental function is already very high. But for those who are having cognitive challenges it can be a huge help. I have read many articles that show that improving memory, task handling. Etc. Help people who are starting to decline. You can do a web search for info. But for me the best proof has been in improvement of my mental functions post chemo.

Question 5

Question:

Is there are any proofs that these games will really improve my brain? because any game if keep playing it over and over again, i will get better next time and get a higher score, so i want to know if there is a really impact of improvement on my brain?

Answer · 2015-10-28T05:05Z

Luminosity and other brain-training games claim to be able to. I just prefer not having to be lied to when signing up for their subscription. They said on the subscription page that the payment would be taken out of my bank account on a recurring basis of $3-4/month only to discover the next day that they had taken out the gull amount! Not very ethical business practices, IMO.

Unfortunately, Steven M. Is right. Their "Customer Service" is abysmal. I empathize with anyone who is stuck with Lumosity and their fraudulent business practices and bogus mind exercises.

Notify your card holder. Give them the proof showing that you notified Luminosity to close account.

Answer · 2015-08-10T07:25Z

Go to your profile setting and follow the links to where your bank information is or call them, I think the number is under contact us. I use to have mine on auto and had no problem getting them to remove it by calling them.

Question 9

Question:

I swear on the soul of my uncle that there are occasional glitches with the food service game, where there are various pubs and restaurants. one time i wrote down, correctly an order for, say, a salad and i gave it and i was told i was wrong. this happens occasionally. i double and triple check. then, when my score was high, i played and got way fewer customers, and even though i made no mistakes, in names or orders, my score was way low, because i had less chance to get a higher score with more people. another time i typed in what i swear was kristy's name and they said it was, no, i'm kristy. possibly, i typed kristi, but i doubt it. i think there are small glitches, and now that i have a high score, i'm bagging it. too many problems.

Are you using a computer or the app? With all the memory games to practice why did you get so hung up on that one? Any number of things from the server, type of product or program you are using with the games can cause a problem bu oersonally after playing them all many, many time I think Lumosity does a good job. Mine worked much better on my iPad after I downloaded the app. Might you want to try other games?
