Review summary

Overall, reviews praise the app for being easy to use and a practical aid for spaced retrieval therapy, with useful data capture and time-saving capabilities. However, multiple reviews cite limited content and a basic feature set, viewing the price as high for what’s offered. There are also calls for enhancements like saving training sessions and an integrated recording function to broaden its utility.

Pros

Easy to use and intuitive, making therapy sessions smoother.
Strong data tracking with easy export/email for documentation.
Helpful for spaced retrieval therapy and dementia/TBI memory work.
Saves time by reducing the need to monitor timing or juggle tasks.
Customizable questions and adjustable time intervals for tailoring to patients.

Cons

Limited content and overall simplicity; not enough variety of exercises or features.
Perceived poor value for money; many users feel it is overpriced for the features offered.
Requests for additional features (e.g., saving training sessions and an integrated recording function) to enhance documentation and therapy workflow.

2023-04-24	sp*****	This app only has three type yourself questions but it doesn’t give the patient the answer, you’re better off using flash cards for your dementia patients. What a waste of money it’s an extremely simple app some kid could make in their basement.

2021-10-21	FR*****	This is a glitchy app, and it doesn’t let you close your keyboard after entering the question. So then you are just stuck in limbo in front of the patient. It is useless and a waste of money.

2016-10-26	Ho*****	Simple, easy way to quickly take data. The option to email the results of the therapy session streamlines documentation.

2016-04-12	Eb*****	It literally just prompts you to answer same question at a repeated interval. No help for SLPs doing therapy. Wish I could get a refund.

2015-09-07	Al*****	This app is too simplistic. I could perform the exercises in exactly the same manner with the stop watch on the iPhone. The user should at least be able to save training sessions for future use. Also the timing is confusing. The SRT therapy itself is brilliant and everyone should try it, but the app itself needs a major overhaul.

2014-10-09	Ap*****	Bought this for iPadAir yesterday. Really needed the SRT to assist in improving short-term memory skills. Appreciate the data feedback for documentation. Pt loved it!

2013-12-03	oz*****	I found this app to be extremely useful during therapy sessions. When juggling multiple activities it can be difficult to remember to cue a patient for each specific interval. This app makes spaced retrieval an easy way to incorporate prospective and short term memory tasks into treatment

2013-12-03	La*****	I recently purchased this app for my iPad and I love it! It's so easy to use and very efficient. It has made my life much easier. I highly recommend it if you're interested in using SRT!

2012-05-26	As*****	I love this app for working with my patients with dementia. Spaced retrieval is excellent for helping individuals with dementia remember important things (names of caregivers, where they live, where to look if they need to find information, etc.). I love that with this app, I don't have to constantly check my watch to see if its time to ask the question again, or set my cell phones alarm clock for a dozen different time intervals. I haven't tried this with any of my patients other than those with dementia, but I am excited to do so in the future!
