“The people in my neighborhood are all excited about this new mobile app to help children develop their Math Skills.” - BOB McGRATH, Chidren’s Educational Television “Counting Together”, with its Dinosaur theme and jaw dropping 3-D graphics and audio, provides hours of fun to play alone or with up to 4 PLAYERS. Not only is the famous TV personality, Bob McGrath, enthusiastic about “Counting Together”, so are schools, parents, educators, special needs experts, and most importantly, children. “Counting Together” is a fun filled game that teaches children two basic math skills, ADDITION and SUBITIZING. WHAT IS “SUBITIZING”? It is the ability to recognize a certain number of objects without counting. For example, you may look at a table and instantly see 4 chairs surrounding the table. But a child may need to count the chairs using their fingers. “Counting Together” helps children develop this crucial skill so they too can look at the table and instantly see 4 chairs. “Counting Together” fills the need for a fun method of reinforcement for today's tech-savvy school child. As the child plays the game, the app itself reinforces the correct answer both visually with a number and with sound effects. • "Students coming into kindergarten should hold the skill of subitizing up to five objects.” - MICHELLE FLAMING, Elementary mathematics consultant for ESSDACK. • "Subitizing is a fundamental skill in the development of students' understanding of numbers" – ARTHUR J. BAROODY, Professor of Curriculum & Instruction (early childhood and elementary mathematics education) at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign • “Counting Together" is all business when it comes to teaching visual counting math skills, but the kids will never know it.” - BOB McGRATH, Chidren’s Educational Television “Counting Together” is available FREE or as a PLUS version.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Counting Together! at 100% against Ready Math's 29%. Counting Together! also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Ready Math's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.6) and ratings volume (712 vs 9). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Counting Together! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ready Math sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Ready Math holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ready Math has 712 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Counting Together!'s written reviews are positive against 29% of Ready Math's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Counting Together! ships an update every 3 weeks, Ready Math every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
