# BlindID vs ekşi

The clearest difference is rating: BlindID at 4.4 against ekşi's 4.1. BlindID also leads on review sentiment (24% vs 7%). ekşi's advantage is ratings volume (129 vs 7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BlindID sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and ekşi sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BlindID holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ekşi has 129 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 24% of BlindID's written reviews are positive against 7% of ekşi's.

BlindID ships an update weekly, ekşi every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
