I've had Brilliant for 3y and it's helped a lot in visualising some concepts. However, since then they've removed user-submitted puzzles and barely added useful new content while only redoing the most basic courses multiple times. In fact, most of the effort lately seems to have gone into graphics and design, which has rendered the app too buggy for three stars and often without a report function, leaving certain puzzles with minor but odd errors. I won't be renewing my subscription next time.

In all my math learning experience I've never seen nothing like this app. The intuitive models, the challenges... It all just fits perfectly to the pace of gaining knowledge on abstract matters such as math and physics. The problem is just the price. Living in a country of cheap currency turns impossible to meet this price in dollars...

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. I was hoping to brush up on the parts of academic math that we all get rusty on away from school. I have always struggled with typical instruction of principles that aren't actively used in real world applications but this app is a hasty conglomerate of useless exercises. The explanations don't match the questions they present, not do the explain the why of what is going on. They run an excellent advertising campaign but the product is not worth the memory it occupies.

Glitches! When I'm in a course and try to scroll down, it starts lagging and visual bugs appear at the top of the screen. i want to use this app, but cannot due to this. I will correct my review once this is fix. Ama restart my phone and try again.

I love brilliant but i can't keep my subscription. I don't understand how you expect to attract people if your more expensive then Netflix. I perfer doing something productive but most people would rather pay less, don't use their brain and watch Netflix. You should think about pricing and maybe push for more subscription for a lower price.

Great until now. I've been trying to open my latest course, or block in a course and it opens to a blank area. I've updated the app, but the problem persists. I am really enjoying it, but ever since I got the paid version it started with this bug Please could someone help me?

My evaluation is only about the app, not the courses/quizzes. Got the app mainly for offline usage. The app works worst than the website, often it doesn't not sync well with the progresses made. The main problem is indeed the offline mode: half of the time doesn't work, got 3 hours flight but couldn't do any lesson, the app kept crashing while trying to open the downloaded course.

Buggy in Mobile, especially on a tablet. I've found it constantly freezes up and forces you to leave the exercise and come back. Also there are a lot of glitches on mobile that make it impossible to read some of the page elements. The mobile app is missing features that the web browser version has. The content is good, but the quality of the lessons is inconsistent.

This app is horribly broken. It takes minutes to hours to load the next step in a module! Even if I close it and reopen it, it just goes back to the start of the module and once again takes an absurd amount of time to load the next section! At over a hundred dollars a year, even with a discount, this is completely unexceptable! In addition, this explains problems very poorly for many problems. It's an extremely frustrating app!

Nice idea but many errors. I'm testing this on subjects I'm familiar with and found at least one thing per lesson that was factually wrong or misleading. Additionally, when contacting support, they only responded to some of my messages. I'd expect at least a note that it's been added to the backlog. Finally, a feedback button should be present in the lessons in order to allow pointing this stuff out where it happens. Brilliant is probably forgoing lots of user feedback because of this.

Cheapstakes, if you wish to reset your account, they intend to charge at the newer, higher subscription rate, not the one you already have. Also they removed the practice section from the app, which is now available only in web browser.

Seems like a good way of learning, but atleast on my tablet you can't rotate the screen from standing mode. It's a bit sad that you can't get certificates considering the price but hopefully Brilliant gives me the puzzle pieces I need to not having to spend as long time mindless reading to get a certification later.

With the new update some lessons like Astrophysics have become unusable, I can't scroll up or down, neither can I select answers. Some other lessons with new Ux work ok. Note: This is a review of the new update only. I like the app and will revert the rating once this is fixed.

Ada. P. Jan 17, 2022     

Content is great, but the course download feature for offline learning just doesn't work. I didn't even get halfway through the first logic course before I had to switch to the online version. The problems relating to coins made of different materials and vaults were impossible to complete offline because the graphics for the options were replaced by a long string of text which was cut off and there was no way to tell which option was which. Not really good enough.

The intentions of the app are great and well executed... When you can use it. During my free trial I had to contact support because some content within the lesson wasn't loading, their advice? Uninstall it and reinstall it. Very helpful, not. I had a subscription gifted to me and when attempting activate it through my email it would just take me to the app to whatever the last page I was on, no way to activate the gift subscription. In the settings menu, the subscription button doesn't work.

After the update the app is working up to expectations but there is a bit irregularity and annoyance from mobile users which is we cannot access archives of earlier puzzles even though I paid for the premium version please take necessary steps to resolve this problem in the next update. I found another problem after solving everyday puzzles if I want to know the solution on clicking "check explanation " it leads me to the home page instead of showing solution of the problem,so I cannot accessit

Nice looking amd intuitive app. Courses are well made and give you hints about things that you might find useful/interesting. Unfortunately there are some minor bugs so I cannot give 5 starts :(

Ste. L. Apr 29, 2022     

The app is too sensitive when scrolling left or right through a quiz/lesson on mobile. I try to scroll down, but it keeps trying to move to the next page. It's super super annoying!! Please fix this, it's making this app unusable on mobile.

Bare as bones even with premium and some text and explanations were either written by someone who started learning English a year ago or were done by some translator. What I get for ever thinking an app that sponsors Youtubers could be quality in any way. 18.99 euros a month? You people.

Most of the courses are super fun, although some have obviously better scaffolding than others. The most fun are Game Theory, the calculus series, and the logic series. My least favorites have to be one or two in the computer science thread and parts of the stats course--they're probably still good for users who already know these fields pretty well, but I find them a bit hard to follow (some of their fundamentals aren't elaborated enough and practice is insufficient).

Excellent service. App needs some improvement though. Many things in PC browser's version are missing here (like showing percentage of ppl answered a question correctly). App frequently stops responding to continue button and I have to go out of the course and come back to get it to work. I moved from 5 to 3 stars because I believe I must rate the app, not the service (which is awesome in my opinion)

FVT. Apr 30, 2022     

Learning is fun. But i a have suggestion for those who don't pay for premium, they should get access to a course if they sponsorship the app on social media or maybe other platforms ,or maybe review it on websites ,and so more people get to know about the app and also more people get to learn the subject they want ,I think many people would be willing to do this

The app is great, and the content is excellent. Why am I giving it two stars then? Subscription prices. They're very expensive! I'm a student from a Third world country, I can't afford to pay 24 monthly dollars (let alone a yearly subscription of 149 dollars in a single month). I can understand the need of having some kind of revenue and I'm all up for it, but there's not even regional prices and you can tell they didn't consider countries outside NA. It's very dissapointing.

Joh. Apr 24, 2022     

Can't work out who this is aimed at. The "courses" I've tried so far seem so basic and trivial it seems to be for junior school aged kids. The app itself is very slow and doesn't scroll properly.

Jo. M. May 17, 2022     

Scrolling is an impossible mission and some graphs doesn't appear. Python code also runs too slow. Please fix this issues and I'll put 5 stars

Mar. B. May 19, 2022     

Best app if you want to learn math or science. Edit: forgot my password, reset link doesn't work, support is unresponsive, time to delete subscriprion, don't waste your money. From 5 stars to 1

Jam. M. May 26, 2022     

Problem approving card. It might not be your fault, but I can't approve my card payment, and then on returning to your app, the payment isn't recognised.

Bik. b. May 22, 2022     

I had subscribed for annual subscription and even paid money but they didn't gave me the premium after payment and even didn't responded to my email for days. They don't even care. Please don't run such scams.
