"likely to" Future event or general/habitual event
I have installed a "brain game app" in my tab where It says under "Calculation games" that "Don't forget your daily training. This area is likely to use your brain's parietal lobe for concentration and simple maths and your temporal lobe for memory." This is the context.
Now my questions are as follows
1. does "likely to" refer to a future event or a present general event?
2. Is "likely to" always used for future events or for both future and general?

- We can reasonably suppose that this is a general fact based on scientific research in the past, so it applied in the past, applies in the present, and will apply in the future.
