The first screen asks who is learning. A name and an icon are enough.
Mental math for kids
Mental math that stays on the phone.
Create a child, pick a level, and practice. Lessons, exams, and scores work with no internet. Close the app. The progress is still there.
Lessons, practice, exams, and the game do not wait for a connection.
Answers and exam results are saved on the phone and survive a restart.
Three steps, then it is saved.
A child can begin in airplane mode. Nothing on this path asks for a Google account.
Who is learning?
Type a name, up to 24 characters, and pick an icon: star, rocket, paw, school cap, smile, or heart.
Pick a level
Junior Level 1 through 6, or Senior Level 1 through 6. The choice stays with that child.
Learn, practice, test
A lesson is a short explanation, 3 practice questions, and a 3-question mini test. Home then shows Completed.
What is in the app
The home screen is titled Mental Math. Numbers on questions are large. A child taps digits, then a green check. A right answer says YES! A wrong one says Oops!
Practice
Free practice for the current level. A wrong answer stays on screen so the child can try again. Every checked answer is saved.
Exam
A timed test. The default is 10 questions and 5 minutes. A parent can change the length, the time, and how many digits appear.
Smart Practice
About 10 questions built from what that child misses, with fewer questions from what they already get right.
Number Catch
The same kind of question, with falling answer choices. The child taps the one that matches.
Stars, streak, badges
Stars come from correct answers. A streak grows on days with activity. Three badges mark a first answer, a finished lesson, and a strong exam.
More than one child
Switch child keeps practice, exams, lessons, stars, and streaks separate.
Twelve levels, one lesson each
Each level has its own short lesson. This is practice in the app, not a downloadable course catalog.

A parent screen, behind a PIN
The Parent button asks for a 4-digit PIN. The first visit sets it. Later visits must match. The PIN stays on that phone, and it is not part of a cloud backup. We cannot look up a forgotten PIN.
Behind the PIN, a parent can see each child’s level, lesson, accuracy, and recent exams, and can switch the active child.
Optional backup
A parent can upload progress and receive a short code, then type that code on another phone to restore. The code is the key. Anyone who has it can restore that backup, so keep it private.
If a parent uploads, a public Board can show an avatar label and a count of correct answers. The child’s name is not shown on the Board.
