Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Math Duel at 4.7 against Math Fun's 1.0. Math Duel also leads on ratings volume (426 vs 1). Math Fun's advantage is review sentiment (97% vs 83%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math Fun sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Math Duel sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Math Duel holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Duel has 426 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 97% of Math Fun's written reviews are positive against 83% of Math Duel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Math Fun ships an update fortnightly, Math Duel every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
