About this app

The ONLY app to help you rate and track your brain health. This evidence-based app has much more than just a brain game!

How brain-healthy do you think you are? BrainyApp will guide you on how to live a brain-healthy lifestyle and show you that what is good for your heart is also good for your brain.

As well as being important for good memory and thinking skills, being brain healthy may also reduce your risk of developing dementia.

To get the most out of BrainyApp, start by taking the Brain Health Survey, which will give you your initial brain health score.

You can then regularly add to your score by completing the suggested Activities in BrainyApp. If you’re not doing enough Activities, you’ll see your brain-heart health score decrease.

BrainyApp has the following features:

Brain health survey – see what your brain health score is and get personalised recommendations on what you can do to improve your brain health

Brain game – give your brain a work out

Activities – add to your brain health points with a range of activities including exercise, eating well, getting health checks, keeping your mind active and managing your smoking and alcohol intake

Monitor your Brain Health Points and track your progress over time

Share facts and your brain health scores with friends and family

BrainyApp was developed by Dementia Australia and Bupa Health Foundation to raise community awareness of the risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia and on how to live a brain healthy lifestyle.
