# Pattrn vs Quizlock

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pattrn at 91% against Quizlock's 67%. Pattrn also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 14) and rating (4.8 vs 4.6). Quizlock's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pattrn sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Quizlock sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pattrn holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pattrn has 1.1K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of Pattrn's written reviews are positive against 67% of Quizlock's.

Pattrn ships an update weekly, Quizlock every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
