# Private File vs Ulearn

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ulearn at 68% against Private File's 0%. Ulearn also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (236 vs 3). Private File's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Private File sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ulearn sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Ulearn holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7.

Written reviews point the same way: 0% of Private File's written reviews are positive against 68% of Ulearn's.
