Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Livly at 4.8 against Starry Internet's 4.4. Livly also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Starry Internet's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.6). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Livly holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3.3K and 2.5K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of Starry Internet's written reviews are positive against 28% of Livly's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Starry Internet ships an update every 2 months, Livly fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
