PopMath Original for Android

I love this app because it’s helping me with my math. It’s fantastic and I love it. I like it because it tells you your level and it gives you points for everything you get right.

Fundamentally flawed as educational software because players can just have the fun of popping the ballons by guessing as faster or faster than doing the math. In short, no reward for actually doing the math versus guessing. Also, after the initial enthusiasm (about two plays) my daughter found it boring.

Educational value would be significantly improved if this app had more problems per level and required correct answers to all problems before advancing to the next level. Used this app with 2nd and 3rd graders and observed that some were rapidly advancing through levels by guessing at answers. Each level begins with four problems. It's very easy to randomly select from the four possible answers until the bubbles "pop" leaving one less problem and answer. Correct answer to fourth problem is assured since there is only one choice remaining.

I am amazed at this mathematical application! My mother got this for my brother and I and we just love it! It has truely improved our mathematical skills! I am in the fourth grade and my brother is in the seccond. We enjoyed this great application so much, we bought it for our familys Mobile! But my brother and I are quite confused on how the levels never seem to cease. You see, I am on level 452 so far and the levels never stop. I hope you can fix this.

This is fun and a great math game for all ages! I enjoy the simplicity. I picked it up quickly and found it easy to play. I have a lot of fun trying to beat the seconds and get my mind sharp. I'm an adult and enjoy it - kids will love this! It keeps you engaged. Its worth getting!
