# 常青藤爸爸 vs 伴鱼绘本

The clearest difference is rating: 伴鱼绘本 at 4.6 against 常青藤爸爸's 4.2. 伴鱼绘本 also leads on ratings volume (3.5K vs 91) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). 常青藤爸爸's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 62%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 常青藤爸爸 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and 伴鱼绘本 sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

伴鱼绘本 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 伴鱼绘本 has 3.5K ratings behind it against 91, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of 常青藤爸爸's written reviews are positive against 62% of 伴鱼绘本's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

常青藤爸爸 ships an update every 3 weeks, 伴鱼绘本 every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
