# EducUp vs Nonsense

The clearest difference is ads: EducUp at none against Nonsense's shown. EducUp also leads on ratings volume (7.4K vs 401). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. EducUp sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Nonsense sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 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 — 4.8 for EducUp against 4.7 for Nonsense. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EducUp has 7.4K ratings behind it against 401, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 79% of EducUp's written reviews are positive against 73% of Nonsense's.

EducUp ships an update every 3 weeks, Nonsense every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
