# Format vs QuickWebsites

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Format at 48% against QuickWebsites's 0%. QuickWebsites's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 1.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

QuickWebsites holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QuickWebsites has 15 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Format's written reviews are positive against 0% of QuickWebsites's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Format ships an update every 2 months, QuickWebsites every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
