# DoodleMath vs EduKids Elementary School

The clearest difference is review sentiment: EduKids Elementary School at 100% against DoodleMath's 57%. EduKids Elementary School also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0). DoodleMath's advantage is ratings volume (235 vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DoodleMath sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and EduKids Elementary School sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

EduKids Elementary School holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DoodleMath has 235 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
