It was very detailed. I appreciate that, unlike some apps or websites that give math shortcuts, it not only gives the trick, it explains the reasoning behind it, and gives many exercises afterwards to ensure that you understand. The math tricks are effective and save a lot of time that would otherwise be spent writing out the entire problem and using the traditional way. My only concern is that there are a little too many ads. Ads put aside, it is a very high quality app that I would recommend to those having trouble with math, those studying for a timed test, or simply those who want to save tons of time on math.

Great app, useful for so many reasons, but for the timers! Argh! I couldn't figure out how to turn them off (I'm not even certain you are able to...?) and they added needless stress. There are other apps that are comparable (withOUT the short timer) though not as comprehensive, so if you're also stressed by timers, go elsewhere. App developers, is it possible to take the timerrs off? Am I missing something?

Aww... i was hoping to actually learn something.... The logic on some of these "answers/explanations" is unfounded, inconsistent, poorly applied, or at the very least, very poorly explained. Good idea for a time killer, and I enjoy arithmetic exercises, but as far as "tricks", there is little consistency throughout to justify them being reliable "gimmicks" for expediant problem solving. Good old fashioned repetition is far superior to these seemingly disconnected "hacks".
