PopMath Original 4+

As a maths tutor in the UK who has taught over 11,000 private lessons, I can say in all honesty that this is BY FAR the most popular maths app I have ever used. I have recommended it to all pupils and parents and most have downloaded it. It’s brilliance is in its simplicity and visual appeal, coupled with the most satisfying popping sound - which, on my iPhone XS at least, can be turned up and down using the phone’s ringer volume. The latest update provides some new graphics and improved music, but keeps what has always been great about this app - finding answers and popping balloons as you work through the levels of increasingly harder mental calculations. It’s helped countless pupils of mine - of all ages - improve their basic numeracy skills, and it’s always a fun element to any lesson. It’s hard to imagine anyone downloading this app would be anything other than delighted with it. So many other apps come with so much clutter and distraction. Pop Math is a joy because it’s good fun and so simple to use. Worth every penny!

Great app, my 5 and 6 year olds are enjoying it daily - popping matching balloons by calculating the correct sum. Choice of - + x / or all and choice of numberset from 2 upwards make this a brilliant maths game.

The kids find it satisfying and easy enough without getting bored too quickly. Very good for practising or boosting times tables knowledge.

 A bargain for £0.59 - especially compared to some of the apps out there.

 the "reward" sound for successfully popping balloons could be a bit more, hmmm, satisfying, but other than that 

What happened to the wonderful "POP" sound when the correct answer was chosen? This encouraged the kids to get the right answer and, I assume, have the app its name. The "mistake" sound has gone too. Or is there a setting I'm missing?
