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.
Toddle Educator holds the better App Store score, 2.9 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kinvo by Kinvolved has 40 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of Kinvo by Kinvolved's written reviews are positive against 20% of Toddle Educator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
