FAQs

What is required to play Osmo Numbers?

You need a compatible iPad or Fire Tablet, and the Osmo Base (sold separately). Some newer tablet models also require a specific reflector accessory (sold separately).

Does the game require an internet connection to play?

No, once the Osmo Numbers app is downloaded, the game play itself does not require Wi-Fi or an internet connection.

What age range is Osmo Numbers designed for?

The game is geared towards children aged 6-10+ and offers beginner to expert levels.

Can my child play if they are just starting to learn math?

Yes, the game is designed for beginner to expert levels, making it suitable for children who are just learning basic counting and addition, as well as those ready for multiplication.

What specific math skills does this game teach?

Osmo Numbers teaches counting, addition, subtraction, and multiplication. It also helps develop problem-solving, listening, geography, marine biology, and visual thinking skills.

How do I clean the Osmo tiles?

You can clean the physical Numbers and Dots tiles by wiping them with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners.

What is the advantage of using physical tiles with a digital app?

The physical tiles provide a hands-on, tactile learning experience that can make abstract math concepts more concrete and easier to grasp for children, while the app provides interactive feedback and engagement.

Troubleshooting

Osmo system not recognizing game pieces

Ensure the tablet camera is not obstructed and that the reflector (if used) is properly aligned. Check that the game pieces are within the camera's view and on a well-lit surface.

App is not launching or is crashing

Verify that your device meets the minimum iOS or FireOS version requirements. Try closing the app completely and relaunching it, or restart your tablet.

Device compatibility issues

Double-check your iPad or Fire Tablet model against the compatibility list. If your device requires a reflector, ensure you are using the correct one (Reflector 2021 for specified models).

Poor tracking of physical tiles

Ensure adequate lighting in the play area. Avoid highly reflective surfaces or busy backgrounds that might confuse the camera. Clean the tablet's camera lens.
