GBInteractive activities I enjoy the interactive activities. They help make the learning process tangible. Their support team is great, too.

DEDisappearing classes Although the classes are interesting and the math is (sometimes) well explained, there are also a lot of issues with Brilliant: *Classes disappearing in the middle of doing it. Algebra 2 for example *Classes skimming through essential piece of information, e.g. Introduction to linear Algebra. I'd really recommend a mix of other solutions if you want to further your understanding of mathematics. Khan Academy & 3Brown1Blue (and many other free resources) provide better explanation and have the same level of interactivity.

DEI’ve always struggled with math before I’ve always struggled with math and exact science, but recently had to start programming. A friend of mine gave me the subscription for Brilliant, and the way programming is taught there is amazing. I’m not scared of math anymore haha and even got curious about related areas! I’m making a short break now in my learning, and the support team was super helpful with planning it. Huge thanks and can’t wait to come back to studying!

ATGood for children (i guess) The idea is cute but imho accomplishes nothing. It tries to "gamefy" the learning experience but just muddles the learning in the process. I can see this being a fun way to learn about our world for small children or maybe young teens, but the site is definitely marketed towards all age groups. Just reading the wikipedia article about whatever subject you want to learn will most likely get you a better grasp on the topic than spending money on the premium subscription, which a lot of it is being spend on making 'cute animations' and keeping the app running. I have yet to come across actual exercises which require any deeper skill whatsoever. If you have a small child at home which wants to learn about science and the like in a playful way or if you are an adult and want to feel like you are learning something new on your commute this is probably not something bad. For me though this feels like another attempt to make an app for something which does not need it. Buy a book instead.

ROPerfect app and great support team This is indeed great app and great people who support it. I think it is hard these smartphone days and distractions all over to focus and study, although it is so interesting stuff to learn. I wish I had the time and learning skills to use it properly. Last thing to note the subscription model, where you automatically paying w/o noticing should be changed. The company must try to find a way to inform customers before auto renewl period
