# The Daily Puzzle vs QuickMathMaster

The clearest difference is review sentiment: QuickMathMaster at 100% against The Daily Puzzle's 68%. QuickMathMaster also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). The Daily Puzzle's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (2.7K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The Daily Puzzle sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and QuickMathMaster sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

QuickMathMaster holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Daily Puzzle has 2.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of The Daily Puzzle's written reviews are positive against 100% of QuickMathMaster's.

The Daily Puzzle ships an update weekly, QuickMathMaster every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
