Brainwave Visualizer

★★★★★ Finally Thank you for finally releasing this for Android. Its relatively useless without recording capabilities though. I'd be willing to pay (not a ton though) for a mobile app with recording capabilities.

★★★★★ Love it! Works flawlessly on my new MindWave Mobile. Very frustrating for the first few hours but I'm slowly getting more and more control :-) I love the soundscape that plays when you hit the relaxation zone. My favourite MindWave app so far.

★★★★★ When I'm trying to make the 70+ on meditation meter, it kinda works. But, when I leave it on and start working on something, I do notice that it's easier to put the scale in a meditative state. If it's not working well, try restarting. Focus on something else your doing and forget the meditation meter.

★★☆☆☆ THIS DOESN'T WORK I SAT SLAPPING MY ANDROID PHONE TO MY HEAD TO MAKE THE BRAINWAVES POP UP! IT NEVER WORKED! THIS IS A SCAM! A SCAM I SAY! Truthfully, the problem with the Brainwave Visualizer is 3 things: lack of context, a disappointing non-existence of logging or peripheral notifications, and no true tutorial or help feature. (You can find a tutorial called the MindWave Mobile Tutorial also on the store, but the programs often have errors in compatibility). A possible interesting idea, but upon roll-out is just a nuisance P.S. You need an EEG device, i.e. MindWave Mobile headset, for this application to read your brainwaves.

★★☆☆☆ Concept is Engaging, Execution is Disappointing First, anyone who picks up the device and app should know that the hardware itself is entirely too finicky for any sort of mobile activity. It might as well be a fancy random number generator. The app itself is a nice, pretty time waster. If that's what you're looking for, this will do perfectly. It's more of a proof of concept application than anything truly useful. The lack of any capability to log data over time for later review is hard felt and immediately obvious. The base metrics themselves require you to have some basic knowledge of the various things tracked by an EEG and the app provides no real description on any of them. The so-called "focus" and "meditation" metrics are not explained and seem counter-intuitive; if the idea is to have the app monitor your attention while performing a task, requiring the user to watch the screen to monitor said metric will take focus away from the chosen task and place it on the app itself. There is a lot of potential here, if the hardware is given a thorough work-over and there's an application with useful data features. Until then, it's pretty. That's about it.
