Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Studley at weekly against StudyArcade's every 6 weeks. Studley also leads on ratings volume (4.3K vs 2) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Studley sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and StudyArcade sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Studley holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Studley has 4.3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Studley ships an update weekly, StudyArcade every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
