How does adaptive difficulty work?

Quick Math uses the selected profile, stage progress, and recent accuracy to choose operations and difficulty. It gives extra weight to operations that need more practice. Answer speed affects scoring, but does not directly raise or lower difficulty.

What are the four profile types?

Kid uses simple numbers and larger controls, Adult is general arithmetic practice, Senior uses larger text and a more relaxed pace, and Quant Prep starts with the broadest operation set and more demanding ranges. Each profile keeps separate local progress.

Can I choose one operation or times table to practise?

Not currently. Quick Math selects from the operations available to the profile and stage. It covers addition, subtraction, multiplication, exact whole-number division, percentages, squares, and square roots. Guided lessons and the core mastery ladder cover the 2 through 12 tables. Higher stages can also practise 13 through 19 and the 25 times table, with a separate mastery ladder.

How do the practice formats differ?

Practice is an open-ended adaptive session with feedback. Rush starts with 60 seconds and adds two seconds for each correct answer. Builder asks you to arrange number and operator tiles into a left-to-right expression that reaches a target. Sprint uses a fixed question count. Speed Test measures correct answers inside a fixed clock. Quant Drills covers sequences, probability, and numerical reasoning. Hundred Grid fills a timed multiplication board, while Gauntlet increases the difficulty inside one run.

How do the 50 mental-math strategies work?

During Practice, a supported mistake or slow answer can surface a matching technique, short explanation, and worked example. Not every problem has a matching strategy, and the strategy does not replace the answer check.

Is there a free practice tier? What are the plans?

No. You can create the first local profile during onboarding, but starting practice requires Quick Math Pro. Monthly and annual subscriptions are available. Eligible new subscribers may receive a 3-day trial. Apple shows eligibility, the current local price, the billed amount, and renewal terms before purchase. One subscription covers every profile on that device.

How does the weekly parent note work?

Quick Math uses deterministic templates to turn recent local practice facts into a short weekly note. It runs locally and does not use Apple Intelligence, a generative AI model, or an online service.

What can I do with our data without a subscription?

From the plans screen, choose “View, export, or delete your data.” You can inspect the complete current local record, export lossless JSON plus a readable plain-text summary, or delete it. Detailed problem history retains the newest 2,000 stored answers. Starting new practice still requires active access.

I bought the retired lifetime product. How do I restore it?

The lifetime product is no longer sold, but verified earlier owners retain Pro. Choose Restore Purchases on the plans screen or in Settings while signed in to the same Apple Account that made the purchase.

Does Quick Math work offline?

Practice, profiles, progress, the weekly note, reminders, and the same-device Family Board work locally after access has been verified. StoreKit connects to Apple for plans, purchase, restore, and entitlement updates. Email, support, terms, subscription-management, and other App Store links open externally only when you choose them.

Is the app localized?

Quick Math is available on iPhone and iPad. The current app interface and instructional content are available in English and Spanish.
