# Splash Mini vs Big Math Flash Cards

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Big Math Flash Cards at 77% against Splash Mini's 53%. Big Math Flash Cards also leads on ratings volume (40K vs 6.7K). Splash Mini's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Splash Mini sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Big Math Flash Cards sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Splash Mini holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Big Math Flash Cards has 40K ratings behind it against 6.7K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Splash Mini's written reviews are positive against 77% of Big Math Flash Cards'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, Big Math Flash Cards every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
