MentalUP review
Gamified cognitive practice with adaptive exercises, reports, and family profiles.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
MentalUP offers children gamified activities for practicing cognitive skills, including attention, memory, logic, problem-solving, and visual and verbal skills. The vendor describes it as suitable from age four and says adults also use the platform. It is aimed at families looking for structured exercises rather than a broad curriculum: the available activities also include IQ tests, live events, competitions, and fitness workouts. Access is available through web browsers and iOS and Android apps, with cloud and mobile deployment.
Exercise difficulty is personalized according to performance, while performance reports and tracking are intended to show a child's development. That makes MentalUP more than a collection of standalone games for parents who want visibility into practice. Family membership adds profiles for up to three users, and the product includes an ad-free experience. AI features are indicated, though the feature details do not specify how AI is applied. The combination may suit families who want repeatable cognitive exercises and progress tracking, but it is not positioned as a comprehensive academic learning program.
MentalUP has a free plan, with some features reserved for SUPER, and a seven-day free trial. SUPER is paid, and its price varies by location, platform, or membership type; the offer also includes a Family Plan for up to three users. This flexible structure lets families begin without a paid membership, but they should compare the available SUPER offer for their own platform before deciding. Choose MentalUP for cognitive practice, reports, and family profiles; families seeking broad subject-based instruction may prefer a more comprehensive learning app.
