Gender bugs🤬
Look I really like this game it’s 5 stars but what do I mean by gender bugs is the monsters I have created that have a gender of Male(The ones without eyelashes) well the thing is when I read the facts about them they had the feminine words like “she and her” instead of the masculine ones like “he and him” it doesn’t make sense so will you please fix the bugs the female monsters I have created are fine but the males have the bugs, why do they? Please fix the bugs😐 just please so that way this game is back to 5 stars instead of 3 stars okay👍🏻

The *one* math game my kids keep playing
One of the original educational games I got for my kids in pandemic lockdown that continues to hold their attention and teach them, 2.5 years later. My oldest was in Kindergarten in April 2020. He has happily moved on from the addition & subtraction tropical island to the multiplication & division section by 2nd grade. He became frustrated at school that they weren’t teaching multiplication yet in 2nd grade! He’s in 3rd grade now, happily learning division in Math Tango.
Developers continue to make improvements, including a monster directory that people have requested in other reviews. It was getting hard to find specific monsters after your kid earned more than 30 monsters! I also like that after a certain number of missions, the island expands and adds more land—things can get crowded. My youngest, in 1st grade, has over 100 monsters and 3 land expansions.
Developers reached the right balance between fun stuff unrelated to math and math “puzzles” to get the kids coming back for more. For 1st & 2nd grade, it makes more sense for my kids to play on Math Tango several times a week for 10-20 minutes than to do the common core homework workbook that the teachers never check.
Just be aware if you’re homeschooling your kids, this can’t be the only source for math. Time, measurements, etc are not taught in this app.

No Help
My child has been struggling with math for over 2 years. We’ve spent hundreds of dollars in books, toys, and computer software to help her. We were at wits end until downloading Math Tango. She fell completely in love and actually wanted to do math. To say that we were ecstatic is an understatement.
Unfortunately, there is a glitch in the app, specifically mission 24. For 3 days she has been doing the task of “recharging” robots, but no matter what she does, the app doesn’t recognize that she’s completed the task and doesn’t move on.
We’ve done everything from restarting the iPad, closing the app completely, to adjusting the lesson plans, and of course ensuring all updates were complete on the iPad and app. I’ve emailed app support twice with no answer. It’s distressing that I’ve got a child that finally has a desire to learn math and the app is frozen. We are on the 7 day trial period and of course were on the path to purchasing the full subscription without a second thought. However, looks like that 7 day period gave us insight into what the full subscription tech support would look like. Needless to say we may be on the hunt for another educational program/tool.
Best of luck to the rest of the families who download Math Tango and hope that you don’t encounter the same issues.

We apologize for our support team's late response. We try to get back to every message within 24 hours, but this is sometimes difficult when we receive a large volume of requests. We'll work on speeding up our response time in the future. Regarding the problem you experienced, we've figured out what caused it and are working on fixing it in an upcoming release. We also reached out to you via email with a workaround that should skip you to Mission 25 so that your daughter's progress isn't further inhibited by this issue.
Wow! Next level math app for kids
My 6yr old is getting his math facts down faster than I ever expected. The storyline and graphics are creative, engaging and well-detailed. As a parent and child development/education specialist I’ve tried out countless educational driven apps and Math Tango has raised the bar to a whole new level. I would recommend this app to all families and educators I work with.
To add, the updates are spot on- thank you!! Love being able to select areas of focus and the monster index is fantastic!
One thing I haven’t figured out yet is if there is a way to repeat levels? It would also be great to have some sort of progress measure built in and how cool would it be to integrate the choreography so we could dance along!?! But even as it stands, MathTango is far above the rest and can’t wait to see what else y’all come up with!
Well done 👏

Thanks so much for the kind words!! We're incredibly grateful for your support, and we're so happy to hear your child is enjoying and learning from MathTango. Regarding your comments at the end: If by "repeat levels" you mean a way to play the same lesson a second time, you should always be able to replay a lesson by simply clicking on its icon again from the Lesson Plan page. You can also always go to the curriculum menu (pen/pencil icon at top left of lesson plan page) to adjust which lessons your child is playing through. If you're asking for a way to repeat *missions*, that's not currently possible, but it's absolutely something we'll consider! And we'll also be sure to share your progress meter and dance along ideas with the rest of the team!
Update
Good day and thank you for the update. And all the new missions on the first island. We continue to enjoy this most delightful app. Keep up the wonderful work. Yours, Sherry
This has got to be one of the most delightful apps for math out there. Worth every penny for my challenged students. And I don’t have to worry about violence or viciousness while they add to their critters. Keep up the fine work. Many thanks!

3+ is a huge win
Buy the annual subscription even if you have a little one. Mine has a lot of great choices for educational games but she continually requests “monster math”. Several levels in just a few weeks later and she is really engaged with the content, the DANCES and the silly moments killing time in between lessons just playing with the monsters. The screens don’t accurately capture how dialed in and targeted the lessons are. Perfect timing. Super light and simple user feedback. It’s NOT drill and kill. More like “skill uphill”
My daughter is not yet 3.5 so finding a really high quality math program for her has been interesting. I have all the other titles from the company, this one is so different but so effective. Get your dance floor and a few items to play with and your kiddo will be playing at math often and accurately!

Great app, we love Originator!
We started out using Originator Endless apps and fell in love. My son loved the monsters and sound effects and even us grownups thought they were fun. When we found MathTango, we were thrilled. Even though my son is now further along than the program, he still loves playing for review and just to advance his monsters & robots.
Directions are clear enough that kids can figure out mini games on their own and parents don’t have to hover. We’ve deleted a lot of apps because they required just as much of my time as my son’s.
The dances are very well done. Cute moves and graphics are top notch and so fun to watch.
I wish Originator would make learning apps for all ages - robots & monsters would make my boring work day a lot easier to deal with!

Need a Monster/Robot Directory please!!!
We love, love, love this app!!! My younger son uses the addition/subtraction part and my older son has now graduated to the multiplication/division. There is an excellent balance of math puzzles and missions to keep them interested and coming back for more. They also love when they get to create their own monster. Our only frustration is when the mission requires them to find a specific monster or robot to do something with because once they have 20 or 30 plus monsters and/or robots it is very frustrating and time consuming (they are only allowed a set amount of time to play) trying to track down that specific creature. It would be extremely helpful if there was some kind of directory to at least look up what that monster looks likes so you know who you are looking for instead of just randomly touching monsters to hopefully happen upon the correct one.

First, thank you so much for the positive feedback! Second, you can find the complete line-up of the MathTango monsters and robots with their names at http://originatorkids.com/monsters. This link is also available in the info section of the app which you can access by tapping on the "i"/info icon in the upper left of the home screen in the app. Please contact us at support@originatorkids.com if you ever need help in the future!
My kids are begging for screen time to do... math?
I am flabbergasted.
Completely flummoxed.
Four children, ages 5-10 are BEGGING me for screen time so that they can... do... math.
Math.
My 5 year old completed an entire school year’s worth of lessons in 2 days. I provided her with a plate of colorful shirt buttons to help her add and subtract. She doesn’t need the buttons anymore.
My 8 year old sat at the breakfast table and taught himself division. I am serious.
And every time they get a little weary and I suggest taking a break they go “aww, man! But I’m just 500 coins away from buying _____ for my monsters.” And then they do math problems for another hour.
Guys, all four of them worked on math for 7 hours today. It’s the middle of the summer, we have a swimming pool, they have friends in the neighborhood, and we aren’t weirdos. They WANTED to do math problems because it was fun.

Good except…
The game play is good, love the math practice, and the worlds and characters are fun and motivating for my kid. Unfortunately, there is a major flaw that completely ruined it for us. We had to change devices, the old iPad was being returned to the school district. Got a new iPad, and of course all of the apps and games are tied to my own AppleID so figured all was well. All of our other games and apps transferred just fine, seamlessly. However, MathTango apparently only saves data locally and there is NO way to transfer progress other than a workaround requiring contacting them and sending a log from the old device (yikes) so if you lose or don’t have access to the old device, all of your kid’s progress and all of that work disappears. Poof. Never existed. Super frustrating and took all the fun out of it for us. On the plus side, their customer service is responsive and friendly, even though they couldn’t do a thing to help us. Enjoy the game, it is fun, it is good math practice, but be aware of this flaw.

Daughter enjoys and good service
We got this app to help my daughter with math as this was a subject she dreads and gets very frustrated about. We wanted something to help her practice and also put a positive spin on math. This was a great way for her to engage without complaining. She loves the characters and the other task to complete the missions. We had trouble finding a treasure chest so I contacted them and quickly got a response to help rectify our situation. Looks like there is a map which shows locations in the parent section. Knowing if we need help and the assistance we get if we need it is a positive aspect of this app support team. Daughter is having fun all while learning math!

😭😭😭😭😭😭
I am at the part about Mecha Issac and... 😭 I am trying to get energy but... I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO MULTIPLE!!! I do not know what to do!! Please help me!!! 😭😭 I do not want to lose my monsters! 😭😭😭😢🥺!! That is the end of my “sad news” review. MATHTANGO IS AMAZING!! I would like to report a glitch. So, you pick up a monster in Mathtango island. Another monster is on the thing you are waiting for. The monster you are holding is shaking their head. Then the monster gets off the thing and you can go on it. But, for some reason, the monster is still shaking their head. That is the glitch. Goodbye! Also, the glitch only occurs when you have been waiting for a long time.

Best math app ever! 😜
Ok, I just wanna start by saying MathTango is the the best math app I have ever had! I was waiting to get another boring math game, but I got MathTango!!! I personally LOVE it! You get to play fun math games, earn health bonuses and coins, and when you get to higher levels, you get to create your own monster!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
My only request is, my iPad got smashed about 2 months ago, and thankfully, we got a new one! But then we downloaded MathTango, it didn’t let us do any type of log in. We could only restore our purchase! So creators of MathTango, I don’t know if there’s any way you can fix that, cause I got up to level 47! And I had done so much on there.
Thank you for taking time to read my review! I hope you take this in consideration, cause overall...
I give it 5 stars!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recommend this app!
This learning game is so fun, that it didn’t even make me feel like i was doing math! You unlock super cool monsters and you can do really fun math puzzles, and in the beginning you can even pick out your own monster or robot! And I was learning, too! I have been playing for about an hour now and I already love this app. I really think you should buy it because you can ALSO pick out the difficulty that is just right for you! I do recommend this game 100x!!!

BEST MATH APP
Sometimes you get to make your own monster or robot! You have to do missions and play math to earn coins and buy the stuff you need. If your a parent reading this I know it cost money and all, but it’s super good better then other math games! You get to choose you avatar and name yourself and if you complete a lesson theirs a DANCE PARTY! With music and stuff. I hate math but this makes it super fun! Now if you are reading this, BeG yOuR pArEnTs for this math app and tell them to read this and the other ones! Like I said BEST MATH APP EVER ALSO, there are NO ADS ADD FREE!

I loved this game!
When I was 7 I played this game. (which was 2017) I LOVED this game but now I’m not really in it i mean I’m older now so... I loved this app and I wish I could give it a 5 star review but I said I was 7 and it was giving me multiplication problems! I mean I was in 2 GRADE. Sorry but it’s true. The problems were to hard for me they were giving me multiplication & division for me a 7 year old I was just learning addition! But otherwise I loved this game so, you should get it. Thank you for making this app and... Merry Christmas!!! 🎁🎄

Treasure chests are too hard to find
I love this app but every time my kid has to find one of those treasure chests she has to come to me to do it. It shouldn’t take an adult more than 30 seconds to find one but I have had to scour the island 5 times over before I can find it. Finding a treasure chest isn’t math, it shouldn’t be that hard. Add a hint button or make the treasure chests bigger, or don’t hide them under bridges of the same color. Until this is fixed we won’t be buying the subscription.

AMAZING, fun game for math fluency!
I wish I could put into words how much we LOVE this game!! My kids are wonderful at math, but lacking some basic math fluency facts. I downloaded this game and within a week, facts were memorized, it’s a daily part of our schooling and my kids cannot wait to play! They get to collect lots of items, monsters and scenery objects while learning. The puzzles are exciting, but not TOO pressuring (no anxiety-inducing timers!). I am so glad I found this to be a daily part of my 1st and 3rd graders’ schooling!!
