Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Question Sleuth costs $1.99 and Math Town $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Question Sleuth holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Town has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Question Sleuth's written reviews are positive against 100% of Math Town's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Question Sleuth ships an update every 29 months, Math Town every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
