Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Clever Crazes at 4.2 against Imagine Learning Student's 3.2. Imagine Learning Student's advantage is review sentiment (36% vs 0%) and ratings volume (1K vs 12). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Clever Crazes holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Imagine Learning Student has 1K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Clever Crazes's written reviews are positive against 36% of Imagine Learning Student's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Clever Crazes ships an update every 2 weeks, Imagine Learning Student fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
