I can attest to the benefits of n-back. I've been doing it for a couple of years now, five days a week for 20-25 minutes. I've noticed a tangible positive difference in both my verbal fluency and my processing speed on days where I engage this protocol.
I've benefited so much from this protocol that I created a mini app just for myself (https://mind-workout.pages.dev/)* as I was unable to find a suitable app for mac. [On windows there 's Brain Workshop (https://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/)
*This is a variation of the n-back task called triple n-back, which is much harder than dual n-back.
Since the link shared here is for Triple N-Back method/app, for those looking for a standard Dual N-Back, there are many web apps, one such app I found in search results is https://dual-n-back.io/
I will try your app while taking the L train to work for few weeks. Let's see what happens! Should be fun at least.
