# QANDA vs FastMath

The clearest difference is rating: FastMath at 4.2 against QANDA's 3.5. FastMath also leads on ratings volume (51K vs 781). QANDA's advantage is review sentiment (34% vs 17%) and iOS requirement (15.8 vs 18.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QANDA sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and FastMath sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FastMath holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FastMath has 51K ratings behind it against 781, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of QANDA's written reviews are positive against 17% of FastMath's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

QANDA ships an update weekly, FastMath every 5 days. Both last shipped on October 27, 2026.
