Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iBrainy Maths at 4.3 against Math Gremlin's 3.8. iBrainy Maths also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Math Gremlin's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iBrainy Maths sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Math Gremlin sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
iBrainy Maths holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of iBrainy Maths's written reviews are positive against 100% of Math Gremlin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iBrainy Maths ships an update fortnightly, Math Gremlin every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
