Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Word Wizard at Free against Math Quiz's $0.99. Word Wizard also leads on ratings volume (101 vs 2) and rating (4.2 vs 4.0). Math Quiz's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Word Wizard holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Word Wizard has 101 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Math Quiz's written reviews are positive against 88% of Word Wizard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Math Quiz ships an update every 12 months, Word Wizard every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
