# Next Lecture vs Teacher Meter

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Teacher Meter at 100% against Next Lecture's 60%. Teacher Meter also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17). Next Lecture's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (218 vs 20). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Next Lecture sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Teacher Meter asks for nothing beyond the download.

Next Lecture holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Next Lecture has 218 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Next Lecture's written reviews are positive against 100% of Teacher Meter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Next Lecture ships an update fortnightly, Teacher Meter weekly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
