Math Factlings Math Facts Adventure

Math fact fluency for kids in grades K–5

Fluency builds confidence. Confidence builds success.

Math Factlings turns daily fact practice into something your child actually asks to do — grade-appropriate problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, fact-by-fact mastery you can see, and a world of creatures they earn along the way.

Factlings to collect and evolve
Practice, tailored

Every session shaped around the child in front of you

Pick the child, pick the operations, pick how they should be tested. Four practice modes cover every stage — from a child meeting the 2s for the first time to one polishing off the last few stubborn facts.

  • Guided — one fact family at a time, in a research-backed order. The next family unlocks once the current one is mastered.
  • Random — a shuffled mix of every fact at your child's grade level.
  • Needs Work — drills only the facts that aren't mastered yet, including ones they've never seen.
  • Practice Only — flashcard mode. Tap to flip, nothing scored, no pressure.

Three ways to answer

Tap it, type it, or say it out loud

Fluency is about recall speed, not typing speed. Kids answer whichever way fits them best — and a live timer next to each problem shows them exactly how close they are to the speed goal.

  • 🔘 Multiple choice
  • ⌨️ Keyboard
  • 🎤 Voice
  • The timer runs until the answer is right, so a lucky guess never counts as fluency.
  • Multiple-choice answers use real mistakes — off-by-one, carry and borrow slips, operand mix-ups — not random filler.
  • Voice mode listens for the answer, and voice aliases teach it how your child says their numbers.
Mastery you can see

Every single fact, not just a score

A percentage tells you nothing about which facts your child is guessing at. The mastery grid shows all 169 facts per operation at a glance — so you know that the 7s need work and the 10s are done.

  • Mastered — answered quickly and correctly enough times
  • Practicing — tried at least once, not yet mastered
  • Not tried — haven't attempted it yet

Tap any square for that fact's full history: attempts, first-try accuracy, best time, and average time.

Collect the Factlings. Then watch them evolve.

Every fact family has its own Factling — a character with a name, a species, a personality, and a story. Answer the first fact in a family and its egg appears. Master half of them and it hatches. Master them all and it fully evolves, unlocking the rest of its story.

  • 🌊 Deep Ocean
  • 🚀 Cosmic Space
  • 💎 Crystal Caverns

Four themed worlds, one per operation, and a growing collection that gives repetition an actual point.

Parent controls

You decide what "mastered" means

Mastery isn't one-size-fits-all. Behind a parental gate, you set the bar — and the whole app, including the grid and the Factlings, adjusts to it.

  • Mastery bar — 3, 5, 7, or 10 first-try correct answers, at a speed goal of 2s, 3s, 5s, 10s, or no limit at all.
  • Answer choices — 2 to 6 options per question, so a struggling reader isn't drowning in six.
  • Distractor difficulty — from easy-to-eliminate to tricky look-alikes.
  • A clean reset — wipe a child's progress and start the year fresh, whenever you want.

A ladder from Kindergarten to 5th grade

Number ranges and operations follow the Common Core progression, so your child practices what their class is actually teaching — never a page of problems they haven't been shown yet.

Built for the mindful parent

One app for the whole family, with the kind of detail that tells you what to work on tonight.

A profile for every child

Add each child with their own name, avatar, and grade level. Progress, mastery, and Factlings stay completely separate — siblings never share a scoreboard.

Why math fact fluency matters

Fluency isn't memorization for its own sake. It's what frees a child's thinking for the harder work waiting on the next page.

Infographic: why math fact fluency matters — mental energy, accuracy, speed, problem solving, and future readiness
  1. 1

    Frees up mental energy

    When basic facts come easily, students can spend their thinking on solving harder problems, understanding new ideas, and making connections.

  2. 2

    Improves accuracy

    Fluent recall leads to fewer mistakes and greater confidence, building a stronger foundation for more advanced math.

  3. 3

    Builds speed and efficiency

    Quick, accurate recall helps students work through their work in less time — and feel more capable while doing it.

  4. 4

    Supports problem solving

    Fluency in basic facts is an essential building block for logical thinking, flexible strategies, and real-world problem solving.

  5. 5

    Prepares students for the future

    Strong fact fluency builds confidence and a positive attitude toward math — the skills that carry into higher-level math and beyond.

Questions parents ask

Grades K through 5, roughly ages 5 to 11. You set a grade level per child, and the app only shows facts appropriate for that level — addition and subtraction in K–2, all four operations from 3rd grade up. You can change a child's grade level at any time.

No. Practice, mastery tracking, and the Factling collection all work offline, so a car ride or a waiting room is fair game.

None. No banner ads, no interstitials, no rewarded videos, no pop-ups. Nothing on screen is trying to sell your child anything.

No. Math Factlings is a one-time purchase — you buy it once and it's yours to keep, with no monthly fee and nothing locked behind a later payment. The download is tied to your Apple ID, so you can re-install it on your other devices at no extra charge.

Yes. Add as many children as you like, each with their own name, avatar, grade level, mastery data, and Factling collection. Switching between them takes one tap on the practice screen.

By default, a fact counts as mastered once your child answers it correctly on the first try three times, averaging under three seconds, with a strong first-try rate overall. You can raise or lower both the repetition count and the speed goal in Practice Settings — or turn the speed requirement off entirely.

Collectible creatures, one per fact family, spread across four themed worlds — Enchanted Forest, Deep Ocean, Cosmic Space, and Crystal Caverns. Each starts as an egg, hatches as your child works through the family, and fully evolves once every fact in it is mastered. Each one has its own name, species, personality, and story that unlocks as it grows.

iPhone and iPad. On iPad, keyboard mode uses a two-column landscape layout so the problem and the keypad are both comfortably in reach.

Master the facts. Unlock the future.

Math Factlings is built for iPhone and iPad — one purchase, no subscription, yours to keep. Download it from the App Store and give your child the kind of practice that actually sticks.
