ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Monster Math 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monster Math 2 has 6.5K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of MATH Loops'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.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MATH Loops ships an update every 2 months, Monster Math 2 fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
