# Studdy vs Homework Scanner

Studdy and Homework Scanner both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of Studdy's written reviews are positive against 13% of Homework Scanner's. Studdy also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 months). Homework Scanner's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Studdy sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Homework Scanner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Homework Scanner holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Studdy has 13K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Studdy's written reviews are positive against 13% of Homework Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Studdy ships an update every 10 days, Homework Scanner every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
