Get faster at mental math — and know exactly where you're slow. THE DAILY HUNT One Number Hunt puzzle a day, the same for everybody. Combine your numbers with + − × ÷ to hit the target, then share your time and challenge a friend to beat it. NEW: FOUR NUMBER PUZZLES The Games tab holds four puzzles, each with its own levels, personal best and weekly leaderboard: • Number Hunt — merge numbers with + − × ÷ to hit the target • Magic Square — make every row, column and diagonal add up • Cross Math — a crossword made of equations • Mini Sudoku — sudoku on a quick 6×6 grid Faster solves score more. Three wrong numbers end the run. TIMED — THE RANKED ROUND Solve as many as you can before the clock runs out. Every Timed round counts toward the weekly leaderboard and your league, and each board shows your personal best and where you rank this week. PRACTICE, NO PRESSURE • Zen — no timer, just flow • Survival — three lives; how far can you go? (Pro) Practice runs never touch your ranking. KNOW WHAT TO PRACTICE NEXT • Insights reads every timed round you've played and shows your accuracy and speed for each operation — then names the one costing you the most. • Custom Drills turn that answer into a routine: pick the operation, the level and the length, save it, and run it whenever you like. EVERY OPERATION, FOUR LEVELS Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division, mixed or one at a time. Four tiers scale with you: Beginner, Skilled and Advanced, plus Expert for when those stop being hard (Pro). Advance adds algebra — solve for x, always a whole-number answer (Pro). BUILT TO KEEP YOU COMING BACK • A daily goal, and a day streak that multiplies the XP you earn — up to 2x • Weekly and all-time leaderboards, for Timed and for every puzzle • 36 achievements, each showing how close you are • Combo multipliers during a round, so a clean run is worth more MATH ARENA PRO Go Pro to unlock Insights' full per-operation breakdown, up to 12 saved drills, Survival mode, the Expert tier and Advance. Everything else — Timed, Zen, all four puzzles, the Daily Hunt, streaks, leaderboards and achievements — is free, forever, with no play limits. Whether you're a student sharpening fundamentals, a professional keeping your mental math quick, or someone who just likes a good number puzzle, MathElites makes getting better feel like play.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Math Elites at every 9 days against AP Exams's every 5 weeks. AP Exams's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
