Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bee at 51% against Educandy Studio's 13%. Bee also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (47 vs 1). Educandy Studio's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.7). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Educandy Studio holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bee has 47 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Bee's written reviews are positive against 13% of Educandy Studio's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bee ships an update every 4 months, Educandy Studio every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on June 9, 2026 and June 5, 2026 respectively.
