NO GAMES: learn without distractions. CUSTOMIZABLE: you select what math facts, and the range of numbers you want to practice. Only want to practice additions between 10 and 20? No problem! You set the rules. UNLIMITED: you have the option to create an endless flash cards quiz with unlimited facts to solve. CHALLENGING: optionally set a timer and choose how many math facts to answer in a given time. Can you answer 100 multiplications in less than 5 minutes? Let’s find out! MAKE IT FUN: check the Score Card and see how well you did on your last test. Can you beat your high score? FOR PARENTS: the Score Card History makes it easy to stay involved in your child’s learning. Track every session — what they practiced, how long they spent, the date, and their score. It’s a simple way to measure progress, celebrate improvement, and identify where a little extra help might be needed. PRIVACY: no data whatsoever is ever collected about you. Perfect for children, students, parents, teachers, or anyone working to improve their math fluency—whether it's addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division. Developed by a father for his 4th grade daughter and 1st grade son! Give this app a try now! REAL REVIEWS FROM REAL USERS “My 3rd grader loves it! No distractions, just plain straight up flash cards. Bravo!” “Easy to use and fun for my kids.” “I was also frustrated with the other apps loaded with ads, ridiculous yearly subscription fees, etc., when all I wanted was a simple app for my kid. I thought “this shouldn’t be hard to develop - maybe I should go learn how.” Looks like you were way ahead of me! Thanks for this wonderful service!” “This is a perfect app for challenging your kid with time tables.” “Simple, clean, no distractions, no ads boxes at all, no IAP, the child has to actually give/write the answer and not simply choose out of a few multiple choice answer buttons. Thank you to the app designer and developer for helping any parent and child who uses this app to effectively lean their times tables. And for free with no hidden costs, many thanks!” HOW THIS APP CAME TO BE Frustrated with all the questionable options available in the App Store, I decided to create my own times tables fluency app for my daughter when she was in 4th grade. I wanted her to have a simple app without any distraction. The app has now grown into a full math facts app. While not technically a math game, this app has proven to be kind of addictive for her as she tries to beat her best score while completing 100 questions in less than 5 minutes. What often starts as a 10-minute practice ends up being multiple rounds of multiplications totaling well over 10 minutes. That’s a win in my books, and I hope it will be a win in yours too!

Spaced Math helps kids master addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts with short daily practice. Instead of random drills, it uses spaced repetition to bring each fact back right when it's ready to review — so practice stays short and focused on what your child actually needs. FREE TO TRY Start free with one child profile and one operation of your choice — the complete spaced-repetition experience, with voice, handwriting, iCloud backup, and progress all included. One simple unlock adds everything else, and it's shared with your whole family. No subscriptions, no ads, no accounts. MATH FACTS THAT STICK Every child gets a personal review queue. New facts, weak facts, recent mistakes, and overdue facts are tracked separately, so sessions stay short and useful. Choose any operation and control the active numbers from 1–12. THREE ANSWER MODES Kids can answer the same fact three ways: • Keypad — fast, simple, reliable. • Voice — speak the answer naturally ("twenty-four", "two four", or "144"). • Handwriting — write with Apple Pencil or a finger. Switch modes anytime. Voice uses Apple's speech recognition; we never see or store the audio. BUILT FOR FAMILIES Create up to 8 profiles on one device. Each profile keeps its own progress, settings, streak, mistakes, and review schedule. Parent-locked settings keep kids practicing the facts you picked. THREE SESSION TYPES • Study — spaced-repetition review for the facts due today. • Practice — free drill, biased toward weak facts by default. • Review — focused cleanup for mistakes, lapsed facts, and overdue cards. READABLE PROGRESS See due and new counts, learned facts by operation, streaks, and mistakes. Parents can tell what's improving and what still needs work — without managing a classroom system. OPTIONAL ICLOUD SYNC AND HOUSEHOLDS Use Spaced Math on one device, or turn on iCloud sync to keep progress in step across your devices. Set up a household to share every child's profile with family members. Manual JSON export/import is available for backup. Sync uses Apple's CloudKit — your data goes to your private iCloud, never to us. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No ads, no subscriptions, no accounts. • One simple one-time unlock — that's the only purchase, and it's Family-Shared. • No analytics, no third-party SDKs, no developer-operated servers. • Microphone audio is processed live and discarded. We never see it. • Deleting a profile actually wipes it — including the iCloud copy on the originating account. iPhone and iPad. iOS 15.0 or later.
