Not even in the free version. · Mistakes explained with pictures: blocks for carrying and borrowing, a balance scale for equations, bars and area models for fractions. · Hints open one step at a time. The last step is yours. · Levels adjust themselves. The next session follows your accuracy and speed. · Wrong answers go to the mistakes notebook and come back later. Look at the explanation again, or replay only the ones you missed. · Times table check: choose a table, an order (in order, backwards or mixed) and a target time (20, 15 or 10 seconds), then check one table. · Three daily challenge sets and a streak that survives one missed day a month, also on your Home Screen widget. · Last week's report puts the problems you solved, your accuracy and your time per problem on one card. · On iPad the layout spreads out to use the larger screen. · Works offline. No account, no sign-in. · Friend tab: earn kibble by solving problems and use it to feed, water and play with a kitten. No penalties, no notifications, and kibble can't be bought.

■ Using it as a family Pick "A child will" on first run and a guardian sets a four-digit PIN. Purchases, profile changes and clearing history all ask for that PIN, and kid screens show no external links or contact addresses.

■ Pro is a one-time purchase Not a subscription, nothing renews. Restore it on other devices with the same Apple Account, and share it with Family Sharing.
