# Fayr vs 2ForKids

The clearest difference is rating: 2ForKids at 5.0 against Fayr's 4.0. 2ForKids also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and review sentiment (60% vs 32%). Fayr's advantage is ratings volume (286 vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fayr sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and 2ForKids sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

2ForKids holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fayr has 286 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 32% of Fayr's written reviews are positive against 60% of 2ForKids's.

Fayr ships an update every 3 weeks, 2ForKids every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
