About

The Dojo

I built this app because I thought I was bad at math. I wasn't. I was just never taught properly. The Dojo takes you from actual zero — place value, the four operations — all the way to equations, geometry and beyond. One idea at a time, in plain words, with zero jargon: every technical word is explained the moment it appears, always. HOW IT WORKS • 10 minutes a day. That's the whole deal. Consistency beats talent — it's brain science, and the first lesson explains why. • Read one idea, then prove it. Every lesson teaches ONE thing, then a short quiz confirms you own it. Miss a question? Perfect: a mistake is the exact moment your brain learns. • Spaced repetition, done for you. The app knows when you're about to forget something and brings it back right before — you never cram. • A boss at the end of every module, to prove it stuck. From numbers to equations and geometry — and the curriculum keeps being written, at no extra cost. INSTRUMENTS YOU CAN TOUCH Math you can grab: a number line you drag, pizza slices you cut, an equation balance that really tips when you cheat, a living triangle that recomputes area, angles and Pythagoras under your finger. And a calculator that GROWS: it only learns a button once you've proven you can do the operation in your head. NO SHAME, EVER No red screams, no guilt trips, no "you lost your streak" drama. An "I'm lost" button that always gives you exactly one next step. A gentle plan when you come back after a break. This app was built by someone who had to start over as an adult — it treats you like the capable person you are. ALSO INSIDE • Physics without formulas: measure, compare, estimate the real world • Learn to code and learn to cook — free explorations that secretly train the same math muscles • Logic riddles, a Sunday enigma, mock exams, printable worksheets • Works 100 % offline. Your data never leaves your phone. No account, no tracking, nothing to sign up for. FREE & PREMIUM Chapter I of every subject is fully free, uncapped, forever. Past that nothing locks: you keep going, at the daily pace the Dojo recommends, ten minutes a day. The Pass lifts that ceiling, for anyone catching up — an exam, going back to school. Nothing is ever locked away — only the pace changes. You were never bad at math. Come see for yourself — your first win is 60 seconds away. Subscription: The Dojo Pass, monthly or yearly, auto-renewing. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: The Dojo at none against Vickie's shown. Vickie's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vickie sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and The Dojo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
