Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Amazon Kids Parent Dashboard at 4.5 against Treasure Trails's 1.0. Amazon Kids Parent Dashboard also leads on ratings volume (45K vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Treasure Trails's advantage is review sentiment (31% vs 11%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Amazon Kids Parent Dashboard holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Amazon Kids Parent Dashboard has 45K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Treasure Trails's written reviews are positive against 11% of Amazon Kids Parent Dashboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Treasure Trails ships an update every 2 months, Amazon Kids Parent Dashboard fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
