# Math vs Mathseeds

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Math at 7.7K against Mathseeds's 239. Math also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and Mathseeds sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Math against 4.6 for Mathseeds. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math has 7.7K ratings behind it against 239, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 48% of Math's written reviews are positive against 44% of Mathseeds's.

Math ships an update monthly, Mathseeds every 3 months. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
