# Outschool vs ChartQ

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ChartQ at 100% against Outschool's 29%. ChartQ also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.2) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). Outschool's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (121 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Outschool sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and ChartQ sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ChartQ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Outschool has 121 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 29% of Outschool's written reviews are positive against 100% of ChartQ's.

Outschool ships an update every 3 weeks, ChartQ every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
