Learning on autopilot. Enjoy but not endure it. Lifelong learning and especially continuous training is becoming increasingly important in a world of constant renovation and change. This app approaches the learning problem from a special angle backed by cognitive science: individual learning process management. • Bite-sized learning: “knowledge nuggets” are easier to grasp and memorize. It’s known antidote to the infamous problem of “shorten attention span”. • Autopilot mode: the app manages the whole learning process using spaced repetitions, makes it easy and enjoyable. • Course store: high quality courses specially made for micro-learning. It’s also opened to all instructional designers. The Micro-Learning App is a part of project “Mind Extension – Integrating Human Brains with Smart Devices”.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mindlift at 4.7 against Micro's 2.0. Mindlift also leads on ratings volume (356 vs 1).

On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Micro sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Mindlift sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Mindlift holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mindlift has 356 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
