ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Funbrain Jr. holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Funbrain Jr. has 55 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Math Minis's written reviews are positive against 33% of Funbrain Jr.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
