Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CompTIA A+ & Security + Prep at 4.7 against uCertify LEARN+'s 4.0. CompTIA A+ & Security + Prep also leads on ratings volume (2.2K vs 557) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). uCertify LEARN+'s advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. uCertify LEARN+ sells 36 one-off in-app purchases and CompTIA A+ & Security + Prep sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
CompTIA A+ & Security + Prep holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 557 and 2.2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of uCertify LEARN+'s written reviews are positive against 31% of CompTIA A+ & Security + Prep's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
uCertify LEARN+ ships an update every 2 weeks, CompTIA A+ & Security + Prep every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
