# Miko vs LeARn Lab

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LeARn Lab at none against Miko's 2. Miko's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Miko sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $15.00 per month. LeARn Lab asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Miko against 4.4 for LeARn Lab. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Miko has 2.2K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.
