Helius' – full of life app

Imagine that you have opened a program that is designed to become your personal friend one day.

At first, it carefully adapts to all your abilities: perception and spatial imagination, logic and memory, sense of time and musical hearing, reaction speed and accuracy of movements. It searches for their natural boundaries. Upon understanding you, it looks for opportunities to improve your abilities through built-in games and puzzles. Even if it doesn't work out (it sure is hard!), it creatively invents more and more ways to make you better.

How does it do it? The "brain" of the program consists of adaptive intelligence and live algorithms, some of which are not fully understood even by the designer and developers. And the "heart" of the program is a generator of various events with its own sense of time. In addition to these, the program carefully shows something that people call emotions and character.

This is the essence of this unusual software for iOS. It is not interested in your personal data. It is interested in your intelligence and abilities. Even geolocation in the app is only used to correctly determine the solar rhythms. The internal algorithms and visual design of the screen follow the natural rhythms of day and night.

Don't get confused by the compact size of the program in the AppStore: we do not use any static images. To us, the program is like a living developing organism.

Many people already benefit from this app week after week. But there is still a lot of work to be done, and we are only at the beginning of this journey. With each new version, the internal organization of the program improves. We will continue to use the best adaptive technologies and scientific developments in one compact application.

What will this mutual evolution lead to? Will the app manage to find the keys to your active creative longevity, or will you sense that the program continues your personality and abilities? Who knows, who knows...

In addition to adaptive game generation algorithms, the app includes a dozen traditional games and puzzles. True, they are meant more for recreation than for challenge. But the program is definitely not designed for casual pastime.

The app is specially developed for a multi-cultural experience. Yes, we can automatically generate all types of standard IQ tests of any complexity. But the puzzles based on verbal tasks and word games are not included in this app.

Some tips from the designer:

Apart from a small set of traditional board games, there are no descriptions for games. But we guarantee that you can understand everything on your own if you observe and compare the various patterns that occur.

Play with the app weekly. However, some run it every day

It is not possible to quickly cover all the features of the application. The program itself offers a rhythm of actions and opens gradually. It will take about one calendar year of weekly play to see the full range of features.

Do not try to understand the basic logic of the program. It transforms together with you

Some interesting facts:

The program does not have any static pictures and image files. Even the logo that you see in the AppStore is accidentally drawn in the app itself. The developer managed to make a successful screenshot, and the original image disappeared after a few seconds.

Initially, the program actively developed its own character following the user's actions. But we reduced the ability of such adaptation. The first tests showed that in this mode the users focus more on the emotional aspects of the app's reactions than on the essence of the games and puzzles themselves.

The app was originally designed to find the boundaries for advanced human intelligence and show its limitations. But some people continue to increase the complex intelligence indicator for months and even years. Can they be already superhumans?
