Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Math Games Rocket Learning at 4.5 against MathTappers's 3.4. Math Games Rocket Learning also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 61 months) and ratings volume (2.9K vs 118). MathTappers's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (71% vs 39%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math Games Rocket Learning sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. MathTappers asks for nothing beyond the download.
Math Games Rocket Learning holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Games Rocket Learning has 2.9K ratings behind it against 118, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of MathTappers's written reviews are positive against 39% of Math Games Rocket Learning's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MathTappers ships an update every 61 months, Math Games Rocket Learning every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
