Hit the Button Maths

Education

iOS

Hit the Button Math is an app designed to help develop mental math and calculation skills.

The app is aimed at 5-11 year olds, has 97 different game modes of varying difficulty so it is useful throughout grades K-5. You play minute-long games where you answer as many questions as possible. Questions are randomly generated which means it is very replayable. The game has been carefully designed for children, with large, widely spaced buttons. We recommend that young children play on an iPad.

Six main topics are covered:

* Times tables
* Division
* Square numbers
* Number bonds
* Doubling
* Halving

Between these topics, the four standard arithmetic operations are covered: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

You can create up to 15 player profiles per device to track an individual's high scores. If you prefer there's also the option to play as a guest. All data is stored locally on your device so you don't have to worry about privacy issues. We've also made it very easy for children to quickly switch between profiles after playing a game, if they're sharing a device.

After each game, the score achieved is displayed along with the child's high score. Bronze, silver or gold stars and trophies are awarded depending on the score achieved in each game.
