# Silo vs Study Bunny

The clearest difference is price: Study Bunny at Free against Silo's $1.99. Study Bunny also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.4) and ratings volume (21K vs 10). Silo's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On update cadence, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Study Bunny is free to download; Silo costs $1.99 up front. Silo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Study Bunny sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Study Bunny holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Study Bunny has 21K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 38% of Silo's written reviews are positive against 54% of Study Bunny's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
