# Kidblock vs Lost World

The clearest difference is rating: Kidblock at 4.2 against Lost World's 3.5. Kidblock also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 36 months). Lost World's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10). On price, review sentiment, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Kidblock sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Lost World asks for nothing beyond the download.
