Stay Sharp!

This is a great app for staying sharp, and warming up the mind for the day. Every math nerd should have this on there phone.
Outstanding!

This app is awesome! I've had the book since long before the world went digital and it's great to see it in this format. I've introduced it to my 10-year-old as a quick way to double check her work as she has to write out her answers longhand for the teacher. I recommend this for anyone who doesn't want to always have to rely on a calculator. One thing that would make it better though is to be able to turn off the multiple-choice answers and allow you to write in your answer.
Great app, consider
where has Apple quality gone
Great app the developers need to develop the practice system a little more extensively
Useful, but specific

Not a lot of broad sweeping techniques. More of just techniques for pretty specific situations. But, the tips/tricks are very useful if you are given those specific problems.
Would not recommend...

...this app to be purchased to help with math. It is basically just teaches shortcuts to learn difficult math problems. This app gives students a procedural understanding for how to do certain math problems. Although certain math procedures may be used to solve the difficult math problems, these are all just short cuts. By having the student learn to actually solve the difficult problem would be much more beneficial for the student because it will help the student develop a conceptual understanding instead of just learning a shortcut to solve the problem. Only way this app could be beneficial is to get students to think about why these certain shortcuts work. But they would need to have a conceptual understanding of how to solve the problem on their own before they could do that.
Math in my head

I've never been able to do complex math in my head, and now after 30 min with this app I'm doing math in my head I never would've attempted without paper or a calculator. Thanks!
Good for adults who'd like to practice mental math, too

This is a good app for adults who'd like to brush up on their mental math, too. You don't have to wade through a storyline or anything made to appeal to 8 year olds to get to the problem sets.
Mathemagics is fantastic!!

I've always had a fascination with math and computing numbers and equations in my head. Mathemagics is the best app for this. Practice makes almost perfect. ?
