Totally confused by the free test in IQ Mental Impulse Review

Okay, maybe someone can explain this better, because I genuinely don`t know what just happened. I saw an ad for IQ Mental Impulse - looked cool, had that whole "free test" energy, and I was in the mood to challenge my brain a bit. So I took the test. Fun enough. Short, kinda visual, some shapes, memory stuff. Nothing too deep. But right after that, and I mean like right after - I got a pop-up thanking me for a "purchase". And boom: a $40 charge. No Face ID, no confirmation, no "do you agree". Just a cheerful message and a lighter wallet.


I`ve checked reviews since then and… it seems I`m not alone? There are others who thought the test was free and then ended up getting billed for something they didn`t knowingly agree to. I`ve messaged support through the app, but it`s been quiet on their end.


Not trying to be dramatic, just dropping some IQ Mental Impulse feedback in case anyone`s considering giving it a try. Maybe it`s a glitch? Or maybe I missed something super subtle. Either way, I really expected that "free" meant free 😕
