# Mathle vs Charadex

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Mathle at 450 against Charadex's 3. Charadex's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mathle sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Charadex sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Charadex holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mathle has 450 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Mathle's written reviews are positive against 100% of Charadex's.

Mathle ships an update every 5 days, Charadex weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
