Pros and cons of Mathemagics: Mental Math app for iPhone and iPad

Mathemagics: Mental Math app good for

Ive been looking for an app like this to practice for exams. Its SUPERB!! I will never be bored on the bus again!

Ive spent countless amounts of time on the internet searching for math tricks that could ease and facilitate the everyday calculus we bump into. Mathemagics embraces most of the interesting ones for an affordable price. The interface is friendly and the exercises help us to fix in mind the lessons presented. I highly reccomend it, just made calculation funnier than evet.

The only feature necessary is a chart or something like that to see the evolution

I have bought this app to have this kind of fun always with me. During business trips and so. It is not bad and you can test your brain easily. But it is not as good as I thought. It will not be enough to replace the book Secrets of mental math from Arthur Benjamin and Michael Shermer. But for some training it is okay. It is easy to work with! For everybody as a start it is good. For more you need ... more!

I love math, and I love this app. Well worth the 99 cents. I reccomend this app to anyone who enjoys math or anyone who wants to get better.

What a wonderful gift for a child. Simple, captivating, educational, stimulating, magical, entertaining, and economical. Thank you Blue Lightning Labs from a grandfather and his children and his grandchildren and probably their children too!

Some bad moments

Most of the tricks are useless, or extremely obvious. And the UI is an horror in itself! Money not well spent

Eg Square any two digit number dont work for 10, 30, 21 ... Please do a review on your math!

...this app to be purchased to help with math. It is basically just teaches shortcuts to learn difficult math problems. This app gives students a procedural understanding for how to do certain math problems. Although certain math procedures may be used to solve the difficult math problems, these are all just short cuts. By having the student learn to actually solve the difficult problem would be much more beneficial for the student because it will help the student develop a conceptual understanding instead of just learning a shortcut to solve the problem. Only way this app could be beneficial is to get students to think about why these certain shortcuts work. But they would need to have a conceptual understanding of how to solve the problem on their own before they could do that.
