Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Lexi Citizenship at 100% against Pinu's 52%. Lexi Citizenship also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Pinu's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pinu sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Lexi Citizenship sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Lexi Citizenship holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pinu has 56 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 52% of Pinu's written reviews are positive against 100% of Lexi Citizenship's.
Pinu ships an update every 2 weeks, Lexi Citizenship monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
