# Kid vs Lila's World

The clearest difference is ads: Lila's World at none against Kid's shown. Lila's World also leads on ratings volume (16K vs 1.4K). Kid's advantage is review sentiment (61% vs 45%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Kid sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Lila's World sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 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 — 4.5 for Kid against 4.4 for Lila's World. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lila's World has 16K ratings behind it against 1.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 61% of Kid's written reviews are positive against 45% of Lila's World's.

Kid ships an update fortnightly, Lila's World every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
