MathStride is math practice that finally feels like math class — you write your answers by hand, right on the screen, with a finger or Apple Pencil. Every solved problem is a stride. Tell MathStride the grade and what to work on, and it builds practice sets that fit — from counting to calculus. Each answer is checked as soon as you submit it, and progress builds toward the skills you chose. No printing, no busywork, no ads. HOW IT WORKS • Pick skills — describe the learner and get a grade-fitted list of skills to work toward. Optionally focus on your state's program (Common Core, California, New York, Texas) and add advanced AP-style topics. • Solve on screen — problems appear one at a time. Write the answer the way you would on paper; submit and keep moving while checking happens in the background. • See real progress — per-problem results, a walkthrough of every answer after each set, and a goal that completes when the skills are mastered. FOR PARENTS MathStride is set up and owned by an adult; a child practices under your account and supervision. Answers written on screen are processed to check them and never stored. You can delete the account — and all its data — any time, right in the app. FREE AND PLUS Every account includes 3 free practice sets per month. MathStride Plus gives 50 sets per month. Independently created educational software — not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any standards organization or exam program. — Subscription — MathStride Plus is an auto-renewing monthly subscription ($9.99/month) that gives 50 practice sets per month. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://mathstride.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://mathstride.app/privacy
