iQuick is one of the tools working towards ‘getting to know yourself': it measures your reaction time, identifies factors affecting it, and helps monitor your performance over time.

Reaction time is a bedrock parameter in human experimental and cognitive psychology, and an important proxy for measuring one’s general fitness and abilities.

Knowing your reaction time and factors affecting it can help you be at your best when you need it the most, and exercise extra caution or avoid certain activities, such as driving or operating machinery when your reaction time is negatively affected.

Using iQuick to measure reaction time at an early age may help detect predispositions to the professions requiring quick reaction, while using iQuick to monitor changes in reaction time can help detect an emergence of underlying conditions and gauge the effect of certain factors, such as alcohol, medication, coffee, sleep depravation, or their combinations.

Reaction time has long been a subject of interest in sports. The mean RT for sprinters at the Beijing Olympics was 166 ms for males and 169 ms for females, but in one out of 1,000 starts they could achieve 109 ms and 121 ms, respectively. One of the fastest men in the world, Anthony Kelly, developed an ability to catch arrows standing 13 meters from the archers, which suggests he was able to react on the release and accomplish an arrow catching movement within 142-190 ms.

Numberace

Numberace is an app for the entire family.

For adults: it may help assess individual's number facility, which is one of seven primary mental abilities, the others being word fluency, verbal comprehension, spatial visualization, associative memory, reasoning, and perceptual speed. As it is primary, it can be present even in individuals with no math education or practice in number crunching.
For kids: helps teach counting

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/numberace/id1511022041

It is both fun and yet serious enough so that the kids could feel like grownups. There are no cartoon characters here, no funny faces, toys, or flowers: there is no need! Numberace makes counting feel like a fun race through the numbers where finding a number gives a joy of hide and seek, while watching live the counting speed on the speedometers feels like driving a car!

And it is something that is fun to do together as a family. Counting to 50 or 100, especially in an animated mode could be a challenge to adults, too. Sometimes we could stuck finding a certain number screen...

You can start Numberace concurrently on your devices and compete to finish the counting first!

The app measures the time taken to complete the count and the counting speed. You can:

Count to 10, 20, 50 or 100
Choose classic or fancy fonts
Choose static or animated mode
Watch your speed on speedometers live
Get parameters of a count (time, speed) compared to previous counts
Keep results in your records file.

TraceFace measures the ability to recognize faces and track this ability over time. The app could also be used to train this ability and select most effective techniques to improve it:

Apart from measuring the ability to recognize faces, the app can also be used to assess recognizability and dominance of faces.

The ability to recognize faces varies widely among individuals. On one end of the continuum are 'super-recognizers' who can accurately identify faces even when they have only seen them briefly. On the other end are people with a 'face blindness'. Assessing the ability to recognize faces could be important for various reasons, from attempting to know more about oneself, to informing the selection process of security personnel or determining the trustworthiness of eyewitnesses.

Face recognizability and dominance could be a factor in such fields as acting where the recognizability and dominance could be beneficial, to working as security operatives where high recognizability could be a disadvantage.

TraceFace uses the original technique to assess the recognizability and dominance of faces. Specifically, the recognizability of a face is measured by the ratio of times it was recognized in various groups of faces after being shown to the app user. The dominance is assessed by the ratio it was remembered and recognized after being shown in a group of two or three faces.
