It's a great app for education and was working completely fine until it logged me out and I can't log back again now. It tells me that I'm in offline mode and kicks me out even though I have a working internet connection. EDIT: Thanks for the fix, it deserves a 5 star. Really helps me out as a high school Freshman.

Let me play it the first time around but i haven't been able too get on it since. Been trying for 3 days now and i keep getting the unable to connect to brilliant right now, message. Not sure what the problem is but fix it and youll def have 5 stars i enjoyed what little i got to play

This is going to sound like such a cliche thing to say but with so many basic level games, it's so satisfying to find a mentally stimulating game like this 1 that is still so interesting. For once there is no guilt at all if you spend hours playing.

X70%
by X####:

Poor attempt to be an educational app. It doesn't explain or guide you through but quiz you. The app expects you already know the subject you are trying to learn, which makes its learning process extremely frustrating and makes me want to throw my phone to the ground.

C70%
by C####:

Content is good...but why charge so much....u can ask for less and give advertisement.... Too much charge for student makes it unable to use.... Think about it...big business are not focussed on money Focus on service ...Money will follow

Education behind a paywall. Unfortunately this is a major problem in the world today. All of the same information can be learned for free by more experienced people. (For instance you can take Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course offered for free by Stanford University). This app provides no innovation, no new information and no new service. It is a simple copy of many education services and only serves to extract cash from people who have trouble with self education.

Given the all-too-often, "Unable to connect with Brilliant at the moment," I won't be subscribing. I've really enjoyed the Basic puzzles, the intermediate ones are mostly beyond me, and the difficult ones, fuggetaboutit!

Showed my answer as incorrect when it was the same as there solution. Every time I moved to a new problem it selected an answer at random. No way to report in app about a bug. I liked brilliant when I tried it on web.

G70%
by G####:

I feel like this type of learning is far more beneficial than somewhat similar sites like luminosity. For me step by step learning like brilliant is the easiest way for me to grasp complicated concepts.

Q70%

I use this app (as well as the web based vetsion) for myself as regular mind puzzles and as challenge problems for my High School Math students. Thanks.

Rated it 5 stars before even installing, just because I know how good and exceptional the questions were in the web version. This is clearly one of the best apps for Maths + Science

X70%
by X####:

Great app, an amazing way to spend time, huge variety og mqth problems ranging from easy to difficult. All in all, a very entertaining app

Z70%
by Z####:

Problem with Python coding are hard to modify the code. Landscape mode or better code scrolling control may help on.

X70%
by X####:

The app is great, but since you implemented the "scroll for next problem" I can't view code because when I try to scroll to see full thing, it slides to the next problem. This should be an easy but it should be resolved quickly.

X70%
by X####:

Awesome game but WAY too expensive for an app. $20 one time purchase is a lot for an app, but $20 a month is absurd.

C70%
by C####:

Great app with solid content. The price makes it super inaccessible. If it was just a one time 5-10 $ buy, they would probably make more and build a stronger following.

X70%
by X####:

We want problem of the day not problems of week. And focus more on mathematics rather than physics or chemistry

M70%
by M####:

It's great to have a maths/problem solving app which is more advanced than high school. Helps me keep up to date!

X70%
by X####:

Slick modern design, extensive, gradual learning platform. In addition, there is a thriving international community of problem solvers to exchange ideas.

This app reignited my spark and passion for math. I enjoy learning something new everyday in ways that keep me engaged. Great app for everyone

Hey, the stuff I am doing here is some of the stuff I did in college. So I can use this app to get ahead. Thanks guys!!!

I'm unable to find the 100 day challenge on the app , Can I only play it on my PC ?

X70%
by X####:

The questions it ask you are completely irrelevant all would be the correct answer but it tells you one is only acceptable one answering even though there would be no difference between some of the answers they're just worded differently for example the first question it gave me with the quarter I can prove mathematically that first question could be answered correctly with any answer that was given with the multiple choice answers that were given there are other apps out there that are better than this

X70%
by X####:

The app is "brilliant". It deserves a 5 star, but the premium subscription rate is way too much, so I decided to give it just 3 stars.

X70%
by X####:

Hmm the best I have ever used..... have been helping me to learn something new everyday .... just if it had been totally free... and yah would love landscape mode too

V70%
by V####:

The best "e-learning" app that I came across. If you have a desire to learn math and science, do not pass this up

I have a problem with the symmetry question related to alphabet letters in the subject of group theory; the symmetry axis of letters S, N and Z also do not exist. The answer should be 11 not 8.

This is really great app for revising and practicing mathematics. I also love having things explained differently from my teacher as it helps broaden my understanding. I have absolutely no complaints. Simply awesome

It doesn't work at all. I've tried many times to login with no sucess.. when I finally loged in, it keeps saying it is offline and doesn't go anywhere

Pretty cool I've been looking for an app like this and not been able to find one that wasn't paid. Its challenging and has a lot of variety.

This isn't useful if you want to learn something. If you want to play a quiz game it might be OK.

Got it to help with school and it is doing the job it says it will, totally recommended for all students.

Just wanted to give it the 6th star if it existed... I specifically liked the mathematical column of the app... Great app for learning and critical thinking.... Just hope that it gets better with every new updates

X70%
by X####:

The probability piece is just plain wrong. I had to stop playing because it was so glaringly wrong it made the app seem like a waste of time.

Very fun quizzes, I'm not sure I'll subscribe yet, but if I get through the free stuff and still want more I'll do it!
