Quento is a delightful little math puzzler without ads that is fun for kids and adults. Over the past 8 years it has been played all over the world by children, parents, students, teachers and basically anyone during commutes, in schools, on camp sites, during lunch breaks, at offices and in bed before going to sleep. Enjoy endless rounds of quick play, a unique daily challenge, different sets of numbers and a zen mode. And with the special "Quento for Schools" mode, students can play in class, in smaller groups or engage individual challenges. Here's what the media said: Cult of Mac: "Quento is a delight. It’s different, it’s challenging, it’s got something to offer for kids learning math in school and for adults who want to give their brains a workout. Fantastic." iMore: "Quento is an excellent math puzzle game for all ages. Both young kids and experienced mathematicians will enjoy it." AndrCentral: "Look, I'm not a math guy. So what am I doing playing a game all morning that involves adding and subtracting? Moreover, why am I still playing it now? For the life of me, I don't know. But there's something about Quento that keeps me coming back." How does it work? Simple! Quento gives you the solution to a sum and you'll have to do the math. To play, just swipe from a number to a + or - and to another number again. Stars are earned when the sum adds up to the challenge above and before you know it you've progressed a round! Quento comes without ads, and the free version truly offers more than enough challenges to make it a perfect match for kids and students to use at schools. There is an optional single in-app purchase that unlocks the toughest challenges and more number sets for those that want to work out even more. This way we hoped to offer more than enough for everyone to enjoy! ## Key features - Ad-free gameplay - Daily challenges - Zen mode - Quento for Schools mode - Optional in-app purchase for more content - Swipe-based number puzzles ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Full Version of Quento | $1.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 84) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/quento/id583954698/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Math Errors *2025-06-03, version 2.0.2* Picked up this game as a learning tool for my child who we homeschool. We were tasked with selecting 4 numbers to make 7. We used the operators: 7+1-4+3. It said it was incorrect. My child became confused. Overall bad experience. ### 2/5 — Why pay again? *2023-08-30, version 2.0.2* Purchased this game long time ago, full version! Had not played it for a while, now notice that I can only play a reduced version, combining 2 and 3 numbers, ask why do you want me to pay again for someting that I already had? ### 3/5 — Yay *2022-05-09, version 2.0.2* Not my fav 42 game, but nice. I recommend oh h1 and 0h no much more ### 5/5 — Love this app *2019-07-16, version 2.0.2* Only 6 rounds in total? ### 5/5 — How do i activate zen mode? *2019-05-15, version 2.0.2* Thanks ### 5/5 — Practice math with your kids *2018-09-20, version 2.0.1* I love this app, and so does my son. He comes and asks me if we can play "Quento". Here he practices math without realizing he's doing it! And he's getting better. ### 5/5 — Welcome back! *2018-08-08, version 2.0.0* It’s been a long while since I was able to play Quento. Previously I would use Quento as a quick brain teaser at college, get me motivated to work and stay awake. Now that it’s back, I can get back to enjoying solving quick and simple questions, to keep my brain busy! ### 5/5 — It's back *2018-07-31, version 2.0.0* So happy to see the return of this incredibly addictive game that my class love to play. Really helps build their mental arithmetic! ### 5/5 — Small bug, otherwise great game *2018-07-25, version 2.0.0* Hi! I've had this app for a long time (going on 6+ years), so I was excited to see the update! Anyway, I just got to Round 1000 and the text at the top doesn't fit in one line, so it wraps and takes two lines. However, this shifts the entire UI below it down, so the buttons on the bottom (hint, settings, number pool, anddaily puzzle) are only halfway onscreen. Nothing major, just a small bug in the UI. Keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — Yay for iOS 11 Support *2018-07-20, version 2.0.0* I’m so glad to see this game updated for iOS 11. This is one of my favorite distraction games for at the bar or in the elevator etc. I love playing it with a friend on a night out in those clubs where it’s too loud to talk to each other; Just hold the phone between each other and see who can solve it faster! Really just a great idle game that you can put down and come back to at any time because it’s not time based, much like solitaire. It’s great for when you need to keep your hands busy or want a simple distraction at the table. People often ask me what it is and it only takes a second to teach them how to play. Can be a good ice breaker that way too. ## Frequently asked questions about Quento ### What is Quento? Quento is an ad-free math puzzle game designed for both children and adults.
