Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Gurwi at 5.0 against Control Academic's 3.5. Gurwi also leads on ratings volume (29 vs 6). Control Academic's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gurwi sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Control Academic asks for nothing beyond the download.
Gurwi holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 6 and 29 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Control Academic's written reviews are positive against 92% of Gurwi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Control Academic ships an update weekly, Gurwi every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
