# ClassDojo vs Duplin County Schools

The clearest difference is rating: ClassDojo at 4.8 against Duplin County Schools's 4.1. ClassDojo also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (4.1M vs 9). Duplin County Schools's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 22) and review sentiment (100% vs 69%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ClassDojo sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Duplin County Schools asks for nothing beyond the download.

ClassDojo holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ClassDojo has 4.1M ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of ClassDojo's written reviews are positive against 100% of Duplin County Schools's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ClassDojo ships an update every 2 days, Duplin County Schools every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
