# FreezingBlue Flashcards! vs OutLearn

The clearest difference is update cadence: OutLearn at every 4 days against FreezingBlue Flashcards!'s every 6 weeks. OutLearn also leads on ratings volume (129 vs 10). FreezingBlue Flashcards!'s advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FreezingBlue Flashcards! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and OutLearn sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

OutLearn holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OutLearn has 129 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of FreezingBlue Flashcards!'s written reviews are positive against 82% of OutLearn's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

FreezingBlue Flashcards! ships an update every 6 weeks, OutLearn every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
