Our verdict
SplashLearn suits families who want a child on math and english early: lessons run in the app, the minimum age is 2, and a trial lesson is free. The median subscription price in the kids learning apps group is €43.84, so weigh the plan you pick against how often the app gets opened.

Pros and cons
Pros
- The minimum age is 2, earlier than most services in this group expect, so practice can start before school number work does.
- A trial lesson is free, which lets a parent open the format before any plan is bought.
- One subscription covers math and english rather than a single subject, so reading and counting sit in the same app.
- Support runs on chat and help centre, giving quick chat answers alongside written pages for longer questions.
- There is no call to book, since lessons sit in the app and follow the child's own routine.
Cons
- Support is limited to chat and help centre, while phone support appears on 55.6% of the apps compared in this group.
- Coverage stops at math and english, where Schülerhilfe lists math, english and science.
- The lesson format is app only, so a household wanting a tutor on a call has to look elsewhere.
- The upper end of pricing here is steep: the median monthly listing in this group is €35.07 and the upper quartile reaches €87.69.

Who it suits
- Parents of a child from 2 who wants math and english practice that starts with a tap rather than a booking.
- Families whose learning needs stay inside math and english and who can manage without science or languages on the same app.
- Homes that want a set daily habit, with help on chat and help centre and no scheduled calls to keep.
Who should look elsewhere
- Not for a child focused on reading alone: Readability covers english and nothing wider, which keeps the work narrow.
- Not for a family that needs science and languages together: Schülerhilfe spans math, english and science, the broader list to check.
- Not for readers who only want a single app to settle on: Starfall covers english and math, so a second option in the same subjects is worth comparing side by side.
Who runs it
SplashLearn sits under StudyPad, Inc., the company behind the app. For a household paying by subscription, that is the name to look for on a card or bank statement if a charge needs explaining, and a useful anchor when you hold the terms up against another service in math and english. Support runs on chat and help centre: chat handles quick questions, and a help centre holds the longer walkthroughs, including how to end a trial or a subscription. Both routes sit inside the product the child already uses, so a parent does not need to set up anything extra to get an answer.
How SplashLearn compares
Frequently asked questions
What does SplashLearn cost?+
Plans change, so read the entry figure and the figure that renews on the plan page before you start. As a yardstick, the median subscription price in this group is €43.84 and the median monthly listing is €35.07. Treat those as context, then check the terms shown at checkout for your own household.
Is there a trial before I pay?+
A trial lesson is free, so a session can be opened before any plan is bought. Trials in this category usually run for a set window, and the median listed length is 15 days. Read the trial terms where you sign up, since the trial conditions and the ongoing subscription terms are not always described the same way.
What age does a child need to be?+
The minimum age is 2, among the lowest starting points in the kids learning apps group, and it explains the tap led, short exercise format used throughout. A younger child can work on the earliest levels while an older sibling moves further into the same math and english without needing a different app.
Which subjects are covered?+
Coverage is math and english, which handles the core reading and number work most families start with. Nothing outside that pair is listed, so a child who needs science or languages has to look at a wider service such as Schülerhilfe, which covers math, english and science and keeps all of it under one roof.
Is this an app or live tutoring?+
Lessons are delivered in the app, so no tutor is booked and the child works at their own pace. Tutor led services in this group list 3,450 tutors at the median, which is a different model. Choose based on whether a live conversation matters to your child or a self paced habit will do.
How do I get help if something goes wrong?+
Support runs on chat and help centre. Chat suits quick questions, and the help centre holds the longer walkthroughs, including how to end a trial or a subscription. Phone support appears on 55.6% of the apps in this group, so if speaking to someone matters, weigh that against what the other options in math and english offer.
Who is behind SplashLearn?+
The service runs under StudyPad, Inc., the legal name behind the app. That is the name to look for on a statement if a subscription charge needs explaining, and it gives you something concrete to check when you compare math and english coverage and support on chat and help centre across services.
What if I want my money back?+
Refund terms sit in the plan terms rather than in the app, and this group shows a median window of 29 days. Read the cancellation terms before a trial ends, and keep the free trial in mind, since starting late leaves less room to change your mind about a plan.
