Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Math Training at 4.6 against Mental Math's 4.0. Math Training also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). Mental Math's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 70%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Mental Math sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Math Training asks for nothing beyond the download.
Math Training holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Training has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Mental Math's written reviews are positive against 70% of Math Training's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mental Math ships an update every 2 weeks, Math Training every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 13, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
