# Mathtopia vs Monster Math 2

The clearest difference is rating: Monster Math 2 at 4.5 against Mathtopia's 3.2. Monster Math 2 also leads on ratings volume (6.5K vs 10). Mathtopia's advantage is review sentiment (89% vs 63%) and iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 13.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mathtopia sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Monster Math 2 sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $59.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Monster Math 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monster Math 2 has 6.5K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Mathtopia's written reviews are positive against 63% of Monster Math 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Mathtopia ships an update every 4 weeks, Monster Math 2 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
