# Splash Math vs Math Olympics

The clearest difference is rating: Splash Math at 4.6 against Math Olympics's 4.0. Splash Math also leads on ratings volume (4.5K vs 8) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Math Olympics's advantage is iOS requirement (10.3 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Splash Math sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Math Olympics sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Splash Math holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Splash Math has 4.5K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Splash Math ships an update every 3 weeks, Math Olympics every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
