Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lab4U at 4.5 against Delightex Edu's 3.9. Delightex Edu's advantage is review sentiment (54% vs 36%) and ratings volume (180 vs 10). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Lab4U sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Delightex Edu sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Lab4U holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Delightex Edu has 180 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Lab4U's written reviews are positive against 54% of Delightex Edu's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Lab4U ships an update every 2 weeks, Delightex Edu every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
