Before you start

  • Open the setup screen. Settings are kept in this browser when local storage is available.

Steps

  1. Set the addend maximums

    Edit either displayed maximum directly. Each active addend accepts a whole number from 0 to 999. Use + to add a third maximum, which starts at 10; use − to remove it.

    Open the Setup: two or three addends guide
  2. Optionally cap the sum

    Enter a nonnegative whole number in Max total (optional). Leave it blank for No limit. Invalid text is explained inline and keeps Play now disabled until corrected.

    Open the Setup: optional total cap guide
  3. Choose a duration

    Adjust the minutes and seconds wheels. The default 0:60 means 60 seconds. Round lengths must total from 5 seconds to 10 minutes; a seconds selection of 60 rolls into the next minute when possible.

    Open the Setup: duration wheels guide
  4. Start when the settings are valid

    Play now uses the current valid settings. A very small question pool may show a note, but one-problem configurations are allowed.

What to expect

  • The equation preview reflects two or three addends.
  • Personal-best comparisons are kept separate for different settings.

These are silent local synthetic preview captures. Account clips and screenshots show the unconfigured guest preview, not the locally prepared member flow. Some demos use 5-, 15-, or 20-second timers; private invitation details are hidden. If playback is unavailable, use the captions when present or read the full transcript below.

The default is two addend maximums of 10, no total limit, and one minute.

The plus control adds a third number. Set each maximum and use the optional total field if the sum needs a limit.

Focus a minutes or seconds wheel and use the arrow keys, or scroll or swipe the wheel. This demo uses a short timer.
