That app wasn’t bad, but recently stopped to work.

### 3/5 — Educational, but got lots of bugs.

*2024-12-17*

My daughter’s account, and her high scores and scores disappeared once. Otherwise, it is fun and educational, making your brain faster at solving sums.

### 3/5 — Great idea but game freezes all the time!!!

*2021-08-20*

Fed up of my child getting frustrated when the game is constantly freezing!!

### 3/5 — Is good but... ?

*2021-07-29*

This game is ok but it can put pressure with the timer that can make it a bit annoying and you have to be a really really good person at handling pressure to play this game. Overall is alright. Would download.

### 5/5 — Great game and worth the money

*2021-06-16*

Nothing helped with quickly learning my 8x tables except for this game. It didn’t just help me with my 8x tables but also speeding up on other math concepts like division and square numbers. This has really improved my math skills and is worth the money.

### 5/5 — Brilliant, Awesome, Educational

*2021-03-04*

It’s really good and it and it engages us to learn. It is Awesome! Highly Recommend it for all ages. It records your scores so you will know what you need to work on. It’s worth buying. But Is it the real hit the button? The logo is different and the sounds are different it is like the online one but a little better but still if you are not allowed to buy this you can use the online one. Just type “ Hit The Button” and it will come up this online one  is Free but I would still recommend this app because it’s really fun and Engaging.

### 5/5 — YASS

### 4/5 — Hit the button

*2021-02-10*

My children have used this in school to help with their maths. During lockdown I have downloaded this on my iPad and iPhone. However the sound does not work on the iPad version. If the developers could fix this issue it will improve the user experience on the iPad.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2026-04-18*

It’s a very good app for learn your timetables, but soon I will need my 15 and probably 17 times table which I can use hit the button for.

I think that you should make daily ten an app

### 5/5 — Definitely worth the money

*2026-01-22*

I only bought this app there now for my 7 year old daughter who loves to work on her times tables on computers and I pads especially so in her parent teacher meeting her teacher talked to me and said we should try top marks and hit the button was the best game on it we looked up top marks both her I pad and my phone but it wouldn’t show but the first thing that showed was this app my daughter said no mummy you have to pay but I said if it’s that price I’ll get it for you and now my daughter is playing it non stop so it was definitely worth the money

### 5/5 — Gcse

*2024-09-24*

So, basically when i downloaded this for my kids they were doing the maths problem but then guess what? After a few days later they were just not bothering to play it anymore so what’s the point of downloading it even though you kids don’t even barely play the point of the game.
