Reverse digit span is used as an IQ test, but I noticed that my ability to do well on it is due to my ability to "group" numbers. Instead of memorizing 2 - 5 - 6, I can remember 256 and do better on the test. Grouping numbers improves the more you deal with numbers which in our Western world is a lot because of maths class.

One trick I do is remember the first two parts of a set of numbers and just look at the last digits. I'm not sure if this helps a lot but I can remember 10 digits forward pretty easily. So for 978-417-2837, I remember 978-417 as one part, and I just recall that in my mind which is pretty easy to do at a glance and then I look at the last 4 numbers. I think I might be able to do up to 11 numbers max but not all the time which according to humanbenchmark.com is in the 90 percentile if I'm not mistaken. Also I started at 8 digits a month ago, but I've improved to doing 10 digits forward, 5-7 on a spatial memory test, and 7-8 on digit span shown 1 number at a time. Anyone got an ideas on how to improve digit span? I've been doing a game where I try to recall words of animals in order and have went from 3 cards in order to doing 5 cards comfortably possibly 6. It's kind of frustrating there isn't much information on this as we use our working memory on a daily basis and improving it transfers over to just about every area of life to school, work, conversation, and so on.

I got to 13 Digits with no errors, but I don't know how I did it. I was shocked and now I'm scared to keep going. So I'm stopping with my flawless victory at a 12-digit sequence.

What if the test is applied in translators or interpreters, and that we find out that they have some deficit to remember about terms or words in simultaneous interpretation. What can be a possible solution to make them improve their memory?

Memorizing a 4-digit pin number you have used for 10+ years I don't think can be related to someone giving you a 3-8 digit number you haven't seen before and be expected to remember it after a few seconds. Seems like oversimplification.

If you adopt the skills of Harry Lorayne, this test is no real challenge. Feel free to read my Did You Remember Everything kindle book.
