Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FlashToPass at 4.4 against Math Run's 3.7. FlashToPass also leads on ratings volume (933 vs 180). Math Run's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
