2022-11-09 | liam glover | en | i mean... it was only a LIVING HELL COSTING YOU YOUR SANITY and when you typed the wrong answer or in less than 3 seconds, it literally SHOWS YOU THE ANSWER which is STUPID because you just look at the answer and type it in, it's like taking a test and they tell you every answer for every question and if you get it wrong it just straight out INFURIATES you and logs you out, like if you have to go to the bathroom, say in the middle of a lesson, it logs you out after 1 1/2 minutes, making you log back in and restart the lesson, infuriating you more. in other words, it's a living hell, why i hate math, and why you shouldn't buy this if you are a teacher, AVOID AT ALL COSTS i did this in case you filtered out the one star reviews to make it look better, in reality, if they could have negative stars, i'd give it -5 STARS or, -997.05358475837583748375837583/10, waste of time and sanity | |
2021-12-12 | Harper T | en | It won't let me level up. It says I'm getting 9+3 and 6+5 wrong. I've been on it for three months. | |
2021-03-02 | A Simple Hooman | en | IT SUCKS SO BAD IT DOESNT EVEN GIVE US TIME ITS LITERALLY GIVES US 3 SECONDS TO ANSWER SO ITS "Perfection!" I HATE IT ITS THE WORST | |
2020-08-25 | Juana Reyes | en | This program is really helping my child memorize her times tables. Since the lessons are short, it allows for her to do a lesson a day, and she doesn't get bored. There is an option that allows for you to change the settings on the lessons. I wish I would have known I could have changed the lessons from addition to multiplication sooner though :) ! Would definitely recommend this program. | |
2018-08-10 | Rajesh Ns | en | IMPROVES MY SPEED IN MATH AND CONCENTRATION HOPE IT HELP MORE CHILDREN | |
2018-08-07 | Matthew Kim | en | The only reason this extension has 3 stars is because of all of the kids saying that the program sucks- it does not. If you have a kid or kids that you want to learn arithmetic, this is a great app. Of course, the traditional way or a program like Khan Academy may be better for your child, but if they like speediness and finishing things gives them great pride, this would be a great app for them! | |
