# LetterSchool vs Endless Learning Academy

The clearest difference is rating: LetterSchool at 4.5 against Endless Learning Academy's 4.2. LetterSchool also leads on ratings volume (17K vs 1.7K). Endless Learning Academy's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0).

Both are free to download. LetterSchool sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Endless Learning Academy sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

LetterSchool holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LetterSchool has 17K ratings behind it against 1.7K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 54% and 53% positive.

LetterSchool ships an update every 2 months, Endless Learning Academy every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
