About Academic Ace

What’s new
Version 1.12 · Updated October 28, 2026
NEW: High School Number Sense — 43 released UIL tests from 2017-18 to 2025-26: 80 mental-math problems in 10 minutes, from arithmetic to calculus, with radicals, determinants and other math shown exactly as UIL printed them, scored +5 / −4 like contest day. Ready for iPhone Duo: fold or unfold mid-test and keep your timer and answers, with a tighter layout on its screens. The same goes for resizing the app's window on iPad. Chess Puzzle boards are now drawn by the app: sharper, read aloud by VoiceOver, and the 2023-24 boards that appeared upside down are fixed. Fractions in Number Sense are shown stacked, like the printed test. And the app is about 40 MB smaller. Two answers where UIL's printed key is wrong now grade the right answer and explain why. The mock-exam popup now opens the exam on the first tap on iPad.
