# eKids vs Builda

The clearest difference is review sentiment: eKids at 100% against Builda's 61%. eKids also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.0 vs 3.7). Builda's advantage is ratings volume (864 vs 4). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. eKids sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Builda sells 25 in-app purchases, starting at $2.69 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

eKids holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Builda has 864 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of eKids's written reviews are positive against 61% of Builda's.

eKids ships an update every 10 days, Builda fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
