Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tsubook at 89% against LearnyBox's 0%. Tsubook also leads on rating (4.9 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (49 vs 1). LearnyBox's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
