# Learn & Code vs Shape Language

The clearest difference is ads: Shape Language at none against Learn & Code's shown. Shape Language also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Learn & Code's advantage is ratings volume (129 vs 4) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Learn & Code sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Shape Language sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shape Language holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Learn & Code has 129 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
