# Sekai vs Python Coding

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sekai at none against Python Coding's 3. Sekai also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Python Coding sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Sekai asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Sekai against 4.8 for Python Coding. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sekai has 26K ratings behind it against 1.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 68% of Sekai's written reviews are positive against 71% of Python Coding's.
