MulZap makes practicing multiplication fun for kids! Colorful, simple, and encouraging, MulZap helps children master their times tables from 1 to 12 with instant feedback and celebratory confetti for every correct answer. GAME MODES โ€ข Practice โ€” pick the times tables you want to work on and answer 10 questions at your own pace. โ€ข Review โ€” spot at a glance which tables still need work. โ€ข The Big Challenge โ€” chained questions with a timer that speeds up as you go, in Normal or Hard mode. How long can your streak last? Hearts (3 on Easy, 2 on Normal, 1 on Hard) let you slip up without ending your streak. โ€ข Lightning โ€” answer 30 questions as fast as you can, in Normal or Hard mode. You have 10 hearts; each mistake costs one! After a mistake the right line is shown, and getting the question right when it comes back repairs a heart. The Big Challenge and Lightning keep track of your best scores in a leaderboard that's strictly local to the device โ€” never shared, never compared with other players. BADGES TO UNLOCK Every bit of progress is rewarded with badges: streaks of correct answers, total stars earned, and more! A gallery lets kids revisit every badge they've earned. Zero pressure: no badge tied to a purchase, a donation, or your leaderboard rank. FRIENDS FOR THE FOX By earning stars in Practice, kids meet new friends of the fox mascot and pick who plays with them. Everything is earned by playing: nothing can be bought, and nothing is unlocked in exchange for a tip. WHY PARENTS LOVE MULZAP โ€ข No ads โ€” ever. โ€ข No required purchases โ€” just an optional tip if you'd like to support us. โ€ข No data collection โ€” everything stays on the device. โ€ข No account, no sign-up. โ€ข Works fully offline. โ€ข Light and dark mode, following your phone's setting or switched by hand. โ€ข Built for families: the optional support tip is kept behind a parental gate. Available in English and French. Questions or feedback? Contact us at contact@mulzap.app

No ads, ever. No sign-up. Works fully offline. Telling Time Practice is a clock-reading app for 1st graders that parents can hand over without worry. QUIZ MODE 9 progressively harder levels take kids from the basics to real time calculations, with 15 free questions every day: - Level 1: o'clock - Level 2: half past - Level 3: hour and minute - Levels 4-9: elapsed time, time remaining, and other time-calculation challenges Big check/cross marks and sounds give instant feedback, and a streak counter keeps kids coming back to beat their best. UNLIMITED PLAY FOR A ONE-TIME $1 Once the daily free questions are used up, a single one-time purchase ($1, not a subscription) unlocks unlimited play for good. A simple parent-gate math question appears before any purchase, so kids can't buy by accident. 6 LANGUAGES โ€” LEARN ENGLISH TIME PHRASES TOO Available in Japanese, English, Korean, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), and Spanish. In English mode, kids naturally pick up phrases like "half past" and "quarter to" โ€” real English time expressions, not just digital-clock reading. COLOR-CODED FOR KIDS WHO FIND CLOCKS TRICKY The clock face is shaded in 12 colors by time of day, giving kids an intuitive visual cue for "about what time it is" even before they can read the numbers confidently. FREE PLAY MODE Drag the colorful hour and minute hands with a finger to explore any time. A satisfying ratchet click and a musical chime at the top of each hour make learning the clock's mechanics fun to hear, not just see. - Automatically follows your device's light/dark appearance - No personal data collected - Network is only used for purchases/restore
