Pros and cons of Math Drills app for iPhone and iPad

Math Drills app good for

This program has many more useful features than the others Ive tried: multiple students, control over display type, problem counts, the ability to pick exactly which problems to show, keeps records of how fast problem sets are done and more. My children literaly fight about who gets to do math first.

I like this app and its great for my 5 year old but where is the hand-counting feature? Its in the screenshots and its kinda why I bought the app. Otherwise, great job.

I am loving this little app. No more papers to waste, its quick, easy and user friendly. I was able to customize accoring to my kids age. It keeps track and encourages kids to be more faster and accurate each time.

Great program. Well thought out. Lots of custom settings - many that provide focus on problem areas. Only goes up to 12 in multiplication tables. Hope a later update will go upto 15 or 20. Tried a few free ones but was dissapointed. This one does everything you would expect and then some. Definitely worth the small price.

I love the ease of use. My son feels like hes playing a game, meanwhile math is becoming second nature to him.

Ive tried a few. This one is the best. Plus they just updated for retina displays. Lookin sharp guys!

Some bad moments

Did not work after downloading at all, thanks! How do I get my $1.99 back?

I want a standard FLASH CARD. Meaning...4+6=?, NOT 4+6 ? 11, where you fill in equal, greater than or less than. That is ridiculous!! Children are given speed tests of 100 problems in standard form by schools. If that goofy option is wanted, it should be just that...an option!

Dont be fooled by the fancy appearance. This app may look good but the developer really valued the look of the app more than its usability. Very limited control over the range of numbers you want to test for combined with a very confusing interface makes this app just a toy and not a serious teaching tool.
