This app used to allow addition and subtraction within the 10’s,11’s & 12’s now it will not allow that??? Why?? We need those other facts too!! It allows them for multiplication and division.

All three of my children, with varying abilities and learning styles learned their multiplication facts using this app. TIP I set a student named "monster facts" that let them practice the group of facts that have no rhyme or reason.
Love the app except for the glitches
I hate the sensitivity glitch it’s stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!, from Landon
I know my facts but it has glitch. From:Mason Helpppp
PLEASE FIX THE SENSITIVITY BUG ITS ANNOYING ME A LOT......its still a good app tho .-.
It’s great but the sensitivity bug where you type the numbers really fast and it doesn’t recognize it is bad. Please fix that bug.
I love the app but I can’t stand the sensitivity. But I still recommend that they fix the bug. I am smart, but I need to get the sensitivity fixed ASAP!!!!
My daughter uses this app daily. We love it! It's user friendly and allows you to adjust what kinds of math drills you want, whether it's addition, subtraction, multiplication or division- or a combination. You can adjust which numbers you want to focus on. You can also adjust the number of math facts per practice, review, or test. I love that it also keeps a record of your test scores. Plus, you can have more than one user, each with their own setting. As a teacher and parent, I love this app!
I have loved this app for my children. I wish it had the tables up to 15's. After the update on 9/9/17 we can't even see half of the problem :-( Very disappointing!
I have used this in my classroom for years and it is perfect, but all of a sudden the setting buttons are not working correctly. I do not want the helper, but it shows up regardless of which the button is switched. I don't know if it has to do with updated OS. Please fix this.
The game could have been better if they made it go to 12.
You can isolate facts that you want to drill with kids. They like the app because it is boring to do it on paper. As a teacher, I am always looking for ways to track data on the knowledge of math facts. I can use this app to test kids or to use it as a Tier II intervention. Once I know the facts they are struggling with or if they need to speed up their thinking, I can just drill those particular facts. The only drawback is that addition and subtraction facts only go up to 9. I need them to go up to 12. If it had that capability, my entire school would be using this app. Plus, i wish I could choose which tests are included in the reports or data. Right now, the reports are all grouped into one. So if you are working on plus 3 facts, you can't just view that report. It includes every test they have ever taken. I hope the writers can make some small changes to make it better for teachers and parents.
Excellent app, my Daughter used in second and third grade and she still love it...my son is using it this summer and he got hooked already!! Good Job Team!!!
This is a good way to give my daughter practice away from school. We have her run through drills before she can use the ipad for drawing.
I would love to give this app 5 stars, but I would like to see the ability to do timed drills to help out with large groups (I have a large class and it would be easier to pass it along if students could be timed for one minute). I suppose I could just have them do 10 to 15 problems and then pass it along. The interface is very nice and clear. If students could write their answers with their fingers, that might be nice, too. Overall a fantastic app for providing dreaded fact practice (my students love doing things on the iPad).
BAD
Good app and I love that I can customize what facts to work on... However... The addition and subtraction facts need to go to 12 instead of just 9. Please fix and this app gets five stars.
This app is a great resource. Looking at it from a teacher in the process perspective I would use this is my classroom. One suggestion to the developer would be to have an area to the side where a student could use their finger to write out their thinking. I do like the tools that they are given though: the number line and chart.
This is the best for learning . Marie Macon
This totals out flash cards by a mile
Awesome program, but too easy. Please update this so that it can go up to 19 in multiplication and division.
Great app for practicing math facts. You can customize it to practice only one family of facts (1+0 thru 1+9 for example), practice all the addition facts, or anything in between. The same is true for the other operations. You can also select to do just addition, just subtraction, or practice both together. You can do the same for multiplication and division and can even practice all four operations together. The app really shines in the tracking though. It keeps track of which facts you have a hard time with, not just in which ones you got wrong but also which ones took longer for you to remember and answer correctly. The only issue I've had so far involves multiple players. If you forget to select your name and take a test as another player, there is no way to throw out those results. This throws off the tracking and charts for that player. A way to eliminate "bad" tests would be helpful. A simple way to help prevent this issue in your household is to make certain each player is using a different color theme so they will easily spot that they are using the wrong player ID. Overall, a great app. Well worth the price and well be using it for several years.
This is the best math app ever in history of math apps!!!!!! I do it during the summer so I don't forget about my math!!!!!
A great app that lets you set the highest and lowest numbers for each operation, add or remove hints, and track multiple children each with their own settings. However, while this app goes to the 12 by 12 scales for the multiplication and division it tops out at 10 for addition and subtraction. So my 3rd grade son can practice hard on multiplying and dividing all the way to 144, but it's way too easy for addition since the hardest problem is 10+10 and he passed that a while ago. Adding 2 and even 3 digit numbers to practice on for adding and subtracting (and even multiplying/dividing) would make this a five star app and usable for higher grade levels.
This a great app because it isn't multiple choice. But I am disappointed that it was 2 bucks and it only goes to 9. The grid should at least go to 12. Please fix so that someone can go above 1st grade addition and subtraction.
My daughter is in the 3rd grade and this helps her practice for her times table tests. You can set it so that it works only on a certain times table like 7 and set the multiplier anywhere from 0 through 12, or you can choose any amount of times tables you want to work with. I'm sure it's similar with addition, subtraction, and division.
It boring to me
Are you crazy!?! Worst app ever
Perfect for k-3rd graders.
I love this app. But PLEASE make it possible to go up to 12 for each numeral in the problem. It should be an easy fix, and if you do that, it will be perfect!
It tracks both speed and accuracy in a very complex way. The speed shows up on the certificates and the accuracy is in the reports. I have a hard time seeing how the two work together on each test but it's there. I'm using this every day with my students and trying to make them faster with their math facts. For my students who need extra help the review is great because it helps teach them their facts but there isn't any reports when your in this mode.
Too easy needs to blhave levels
Great app - that said it would be fantastic if we could increase the grid to expand higher number than 9 so the total can be greater than 16. We are currently working on add/sub 20 minus....
This app is great for learning math facts for timed tests. It is easily customizable once you find the options. It also has great analytics on which problems were answered slower/faster than others. Great tool. Throw away the flash cards!! This is all you need.
Such a great learning tool. Is it possible to get it up to the 12s though?
This has been a great app for our three home-schooled children. I can customize the problems for each student's level. The records make it easy to assess their progress without pouring over each child's work. It makes excellent independent practice. The only thing I would change is that the settings are easily accessible to students. My smarty-pants student figured out that she could customize her test in such a way (only 1+1) that she could beat all the records, without actually practicing her facts. We need a password on settings. ;-)
Tremendous app. Everything a teacher could ask for in a fact app. Tracking speed adds to the engagement and allows students to set goals. The depth and quality of progress monitoring really make this fact app stand out as one of the very best in the app store.
I think there is a bug in the tests. Even if I miss more than one problem, it says there was only one 'pit stop', meaning one missed problem. It should count the number of missed problems. Regardless, it's a great app!
Great app, but sounds are unavailable. I tried activating them to no avail. Also, how do we contact the developer?
Trust me this is a well done app it really help me get NJASK for math get this it helps with math
Should add 10 11 and 12
I use this everyday in homeschooling my son. I chose this app, because it is completely customizable. I can set it to specific problems not just +2's for example. If I want my son to work on 8+3, 9+5, and 4+2 for example, then I can select just those specific problems. It also shows how my son is at each of the problems, so I can eliminate the ones he has learned and leave the ones that needs more practice. The drill tells the child how fast the child went once the drill is completed. I use incentives to reach a certain mile per hour. With that, I have had my son begging me to let him do the drills over and over. The drill only shows one problem at a time, so my son does 60+ problems in one sitting without a complaint. It doesn't seem like that much work to him. If I hand him a worksheet with just 15 problems on it, he would shut down. Also, I emailed the maker of this app, and received a quick and friendly response. I recommend this app for homeschooling!
I hate it
After trying a couple of math apps, I find this one to be the best. It allows you to customize the drills to you child need, and the stats will let you know your child's strength and weakness. I've been using it with my first grader (+ -) and with my third grader (x). Although its not their favorite app, they are starting to enjoy it when they start seeing the results at school.
This app is the perfect app for children to learn and practice their math facts. The only suggestion I hope the developer's will make is to expand the math facts beyond 9 + 9 to grow with the student's ability. I also really like that the student has to enter the answes via a 10 key pad vs. multiple choice answers. I'm giving 4 stars only because the app is more limited in scope.
I love the fact that I can use kanji, but the way we must input answers is in correct. According to the app, 七 + 三 = 一零 means 7+3=10. Ten is not formed by adding one to zero. It should read 七 + 三 = 十. Is it possible to change the actual keyboard in kanji mode so that the answers are entered in kanji?
We went from the light version to this very quickly after seeing what this app could do. I can imagine this app having value for many years to come. While I love the multi-student support, it would be nice to see an option for the teacher portions to be locked-out from students. (I don't think Sally needs to be able to see/edit Billy's data, for example.)
When you want old fashioned drills via repetition, this is the app to get. It's not my 3rd grader's favorite "game", but after a week or less of drills, and assessing which give her problems (via the metrics provided in the app), she scores high on her tests.
