- [R6] Prodigy Math Game Fun… but not.: This game has helped me focus on math a lot, but here are the issues. There are 3 ranks of memberships with different prices, which are expensive. If you don’t have any of the memberships, you get to have boring pets and a weaker team. This is really frustrating to me. The other thing having to do with this is that this is a kids game. This is a kids game, targeted towards kids,

- [R19] Prodigy Math Game About my review: I loved it at the start, but then I had to be a member for everything basically. Then when I tried to log back in it’s like “Do you have an account or would you like to make an account” I already had one for me, but it wanted me to put in a code but I forgot it. So i lost A LOT of progress. If your going to make a game where you have to sign up save it. I dont understand why it do
- [R54] Prodigy Math Game No support response: We have issues with the app not tracking usage. Sent email to support and never heard back. The end. Old review: On iPad 7th Gen iOS 13.2 the latest app keeps hanging at a point where you need to choose a spell. It doesn’t hang fully coz you can toggle back to home screen for 10 seconds and go back in - then it works but then the sound is off. But then you can toggle one more
- [R25] Prodigy Math Game Prodigy Math Scam For Kids: I’ve tried to write reviews so long about why this game sucks, that my phone crashed. There are so many reasons why not to download it. The basic are, you used to have a good game, dedicated to making something boring fun. Then developers got greedy, and TECHNICALLY, you don’t have to pay to play. But TECHNICALLY, 90% of stuff now costs money, or requires money in order

- [R61] Math Learner You have to pay 24.99: I personally don’t think educational apps should cost so much.
- [R79] Math Learner Trap to get you to buy their 24.99 subscription: Son finished level TWO and was immediately prompted with a 24.99 monthly recurring subscription screen that there was no other button besides the subscribe button. They will immediately try and get you to pay with very little time on the app.
- [R92] Math Learner Ok: It asks you to by it 24.99 a month
- [R101] Math Learner Expensive: Too expensive. My daughter really liked this game. I was even thinking of the paid version. But not for that much. Per month. It’s crazy

- [R38] Prodigy Math Game Good but very glichy: I have great internet connection and every time I attack in a battle on the target it shows a black box around the target and sometimes it is so glitched out that the music stops completely and it takes awhile for it to load. But I like the idea of the game though!
