Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Gurudeva at 100% against Study.com's 34%. Gurudeva also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). Study.com's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 41 months) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 13). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Gurudeva holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Study.com has 3.8K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Gurudeva's written reviews are positive against 34% of Study.com's.
Gurudeva ships an update every 41 months, Study.com every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
