# Brainly vs Studdy

The clearest difference is ads: Studdy at none against Brainly's shown. Studdy also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 55%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Brainly's advantage is ratings volume (284K vs 13K) and chart position (#93 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Brainly sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.00 per month and Studdy sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Brainly against 4.8 for Studdy. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brainly has 284K ratings behind it against 13K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 55% of Brainly's written reviews are positive against 89% of Studdy's.

Brainly ships an update weekly, Studdy every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
