# Skyeng vs GetCourse

Skyeng and GetCourse both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 46% of Skyeng's written reviews are positive against 28% of GetCourse's. Skyeng also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). GetCourse's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 1.9K) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.4). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Skyeng sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and GetCourse sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Skyeng against 4.9 for GetCourse. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GetCourse has 13K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 46% of Skyeng's written reviews are positive against 28% of GetCourse's.

Skyeng ships an update every 2 weeks, GetCourse every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
