How to find the odd one out faster

Finding the different shape is a visual search exercise. You almost always save time by changing the way you look.

1. Look at the whole grid at once instead of reading it row by row: the difference often jumps out in peripheral vision.
2. Try softening your focus a little: differences in color and rotation are easier to notice.
3. Alternate between looking at the center and at a corner of the grid.
4. There are three kinds of difference, color, rotation and size: if you see nothing, look for them one by one on purpose.
5. Don't tap by guessing: a miss costs more than two extra seconds of searching.

With practice you'll start noticing the odd shape before you know why.
