But after a while, they started to give her questions that she was too young for. ### 4/5 — Ok *2020-02-23* Well it is kind of hard for my children who are 7-9 **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for your review. If you would like us to make curricular changes for your students, please feel free to write us at hello@smartickmethod.com! ### 4/5 — Rates on the smartick store. *2018-10-12* The store is good ,but I think things are very expensive and smartick adds so much visual time that it’s very hard to get points,otherwise I think the smartick store has a good selection and is has a good organization.Thank you for reading my review. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We appreciate all feedback we receive. We like to put the things in the Smartick store at a certain price point so that our students are encouraged to work consistently and focused on their sessions and save up for what they really want! ### 5/5 — Smartick *2018-08-06* I love Smartick because it develops your knowledge of mathematics.😄 **Developer response:** Thank you for your review!

I said i had a challenging game for him, and he was hooked. He like the puzzles and thought it was fun too. We've been using it at the weekends for the last 2 months and I feel like it's helped him with his math. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review!

It is very expensive. We tried the 15 day free trial and really liked it but because of the high cost, we won't be getting a subscription. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Coding sucks *2026-02-22* I was doing coding and it just said I didn’t do it and it erased and that happened like 8 or 9 times **Developer response:** Thank you for letting us know, and we’re really sorry for the frustration this caused 😔 That definitely shouldn’t happen. Please email us at hola@smartick.com with a few details about what happened and the device you were using.

Smartick offers an 7-day trial so you can explore all its features. The subscription provides access to high-quality educational content and personalized support. We hope you enjoy the experience! ### 1/5 — A terrible app *2023-03-08, version 2.1.3* The things are bad and it keeps doing weird glitches.like it deleted 600 stars from my account.and when I was doing my tutorial it just signed me out ### 1/5 — I hate it (but the games are good) *2020-12-19, version 1.21.0* I only like the games and nothing else, I would delete, But I have to do it, it is completely waste of time of playing (much worse than homework) I give 1+ star just for the games. ### 1/5 — This is a terrible app, it doesn’t have a help button *2020-10-22, version 1.18.3* Do not download it, it has got no instructions for some of the questions and there isn’t a help button . You are forced to do the session until it ends which is bad because some kids understand it already and are wasting their own time which is really not good do not download, I recommend anything else ### 1/5 — Broken *2020-05-26* This math is broken on fraction adding and subtracting **Developer response:** Hello, we would be delighted to know in detail the impressions that the method has caused you. Your suggestions help us improve. You can write us at hello@smartick.com. ### 1/5 — Latest Update broke the app on gen 1 iPad mini. Crashes immediately smh *2020-03-29, version 1.13.0* App Crashes immediately upon loading up. Started after most recent update. Please fix it!!!! **Developer response:** Hello!

Thank you for your feedback. We would like to clarify that Smartick uses time to help us analyze our students' sessions. Since each exercise has a stipulated amount of time to be completed, we evaluate response time as part of our assessment of students' mastery of the content. As we take into account both the effectiveness of the session and the student's working speed when assessing performance, we are also able to develop mental agility. As there is a timing aspect, Smartick can train students to promptly respond within the stipulated amount of time set for each exercise. If you have any other concerns, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Support team directly at hello@smartickmethod.com. We would be happy to help! ### 1/5 — Buggy and Slow *2019-04-01* So so many bugs. It’s incredibly frustrating to use. It’s also extremely slow which affects the games and makes some of them unplayable. I’m NOT hopeful that this will get fixed. They would likely need to rewrite from scratch with native code. Also way too expensive. :( **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We strive to provide the best product by updating Smartick every 5 weeks. We'd love to learn more about your case in detail. Do you mind sending our Customer Support team an email at hello@smartickmethod.com with your comments?

We hope to hear from you! ### 2/5 — Bad *2023-02-16* Doesn’t help me o the problems **Developer response:** We're sorry to read your review.

Thank you very much! ### 5/5 — Very satisfied with our experience so far. *2023-09-04* Our goal was to find an app that adapts the level of difficulty to the performance of the child. Smartick is best bar non from that standpoint! Also, it is user friendly, and the voice instructions are adequate most of the time for the child to understand the task at hand. We have three children, and they all enjoy using the app daily (most of the time, with some encouragement here and there :-)). We’ve also been using the additional coding app, and it is fantastic as well. The only issue that we had is that the app shuts down unexpectedly (rarely), and a couple of times we had to delete the app and reload it as it completely stopped to respond. I wanted to thank the team for a great overall user experience! Let’s keep raising the bar for individualized STEM education! ### 5/5 — Fun math *2020-03-07* My 7 year old does his Smartick everyday. The kid can click on directions and it will read to them so they can manage on their own even if not the strongest reader. At the end of the session, there are games. I think he gets through the math just so he can play the games. Beware that once the trial runs out, it is very expensive. **Developer response:** Thank you for your rating and feedback! We appreciate it. ### 5/5 — Excellent maths app *2019-04-16, version 1.9.12* My kids love this and are learning. Result! ### 5/5 — So Far So Good *2019-01-23* Thuis review is for The Parent with an advanced child. My son performs at a grade level above his present level. There is no giften Class at this level so I use Smartick at home in order to keep his interest level high. I am very pleased with the content presented and customer service is always responsive to answer questions. **Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback and thrilled to hear the positive comments. Don't hesitate to email our Customer Support team at hello@smartickmethod.com if there's anything else we can help with! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
