# Math Games ◦ vs Math Lingo

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Math Games ◦ at 92% against Math Lingo's 49%. Math Games ◦ also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Math Lingo's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (2.3K vs 43). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math Games ◦ sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $57.99 per year and Math Lingo sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Math Lingo holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Lingo has 2.3K ratings behind it against 43, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Math Games ◦'s written reviews are positive against 49% of Math Lingo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Math Games ◦ ships an update every 2 weeks, Math Lingo every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
