Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Splash Mini at Free against Tap Times Tables's $2.99. Splash Mini also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (6.7K vs 100). Tap Times Tables's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (90% vs 56%). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Splash Mini holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Splash Mini has 6.7K ratings behind it against 100, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Splash Mini's written reviews are positive against 90% of Tap Times Tables's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Splash Mini ships an update every 3 weeks, Tap Times Tables every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
