Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Sphere2 at 100% against myClassroom's 38%. Sphere2 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (9.3 vs 16.0). myClassroom's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

myClassroom holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: myClassroom has 355 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Sphere2's written reviews are positive against 38% of myClassroom's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sphere2 ships an update every 2 months, myClassroom weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 11, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
