# Mimo vs DataCamp

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Mimo at 110K against DataCamp's 4.8K. Mimo also leads on chart position (#97 vs unranked). DataCamp's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mimo sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and DataCamp sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $35.00 per month. 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 Mimo against 4.8 for DataCamp. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mimo has 110K ratings behind it against 4.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 71% of Mimo's written reviews are positive against 72% of DataCamp's.

Mimo ships an update weekly, DataCamp fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
