# Splash Mini vs MATH Loops

The clearest difference is price: Splash Mini at Free against MATH Loops's $0.99. Splash Mini also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (6.7K vs 17). MATH Loops's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 13) and review sentiment (71% vs 53%). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Splash Mini is free to download; MATH Loops costs $0.99 up front. Splash Mini sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. MATH Loops asks for nothing beyond the download.

Splash Mini holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Splash Mini has 6.7K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Splash Mini's written reviews are positive against 71% of MATH Loops's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Splash Mini ships an update every 3 weeks, MATH Loops every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
