# Learn Python vs Learn to Code

The clearest difference is rating: Learn to Code at 4.9 against Learn Python's 4.4. Learn to Code also leads on ratings volume (601 vs 7) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). Learn Python's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 71%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Learn Python sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Learn to Code sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Learn to Code holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Learn to Code has 601 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Learn Python's written reviews are positive against 71% of Learn to Code's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
