All I’m going to say is WOW! Okay, I’ll say a little more. This app makes learning algebra so easy and fun. I’ve always struggled with math except for the time many years ago when my brother tutored me. He made it so easy and fun that my grades went up two grades in one semester. Now here I am many years later struggling again because I forgot so much. My amazing brother passed away. I took algebra 2 in college about 3 times and failed each time. All different math professors...so I figured I would never grasp it again. Something told me to search for an Algebra app and to my surprise I found this awesome app. I’m now addicted to it. I feel confident in retaking this class. I have all my other credits, so once I successfully complete this class I will have earned my degree. Thank you for creating a masterpiece app. If you struggle with algebra...this app is for you.
AMAZING, EASY. Use this, you will not regret it

I am 25 and have always been bad at math, I skipped out on college because I was nervous I simply was not smart enough. I decided to join the military and algebra is required on the test. I took a practice test and I failed miserably, I was so lost trying to figure the problems out. It was very embarrassing for me, I decided to teach myself again. I bought a book and it was like reading an alien language. I thought, "it's 2017, I'm sure there's an app for that" sure enough I stumbled across this. Took me no longer than an hour to re grasp the concept of algebra. The visual learning in this app is fantastic and a lot easier than how I learned when I was a kid. I am glad I downloaded this app and I suggest it to ANYONE who wants to relearn but has a hard time with numbers like I do.
The Concept actually MAKES SENSE!
Madison T,
I’m 11 years old and I’m going into middle school next year where they are going to be teaching algebra. Of course I’m scared out of my mind even though I’m ok at math. When they introduced me to algebra in 5th Grade the concept was confusing and I forgot it easily. Now that it is summer I have to prepare for the advanced math, but I needed an concept that is easy to remember and short. My mom found me this app and when I tried the concept it was really easy and actually kind of fun. I played it over and over again and said I rather play this app than take a shower. 😂 Now here I am writing a review because I love this app so much. So GET THE APP if you can!

Too easy
that_one_outcast
I’m on my second semester of algebra and was really struggling, I tried to use this app but it was so easy and it had stuff I had already learnt and it was so repetitive. I don’t have the patience to do stuff I already know and every time I tried to go to the next lesson it wouldn’t let me do it. The questions were so easy and it makes me do check steps for everything which is super annoying. It would be better if I could skip lessons and go to the one I really needed help with. That option would help because it could prepare me for my tests and it would refresh the concept and this app overall would be so much better and you could also add an option to write an explanation every time the problem gets wrong three times. These are some helpful tips for you I would actually like this app if these options were there.
