# Twist vs Yellow

The clearest difference is rating: Twist at 4.1 against Yellow's 3.6. Twist also leads on ratings volume (36K vs 45) and review sentiment (68% vs 56%). Yellow's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Twist sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Yellow sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Twist holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Twist has 36K ratings behind it against 45, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of Twist's written reviews are positive against 56% of Yellow's.

Twist ships an update every 4 months, Yellow weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
