# prettysmart vs Studley

The clearest difference is review sentiment: prettysmart at 100% against Studley's 50%. prettysmart also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7). Studley's advantage is ratings volume (4.5K vs 18) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. prettysmart sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Studley sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
