# 荔枝 vs 漫播

The clearest difference is ads: 漫播 at none against 荔枝's shown. 荔枝's advantage is ratings volume (889 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 荔枝 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and 漫播 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

漫播 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 荔枝 has 889 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

荔枝 ships an update every 3 weeks, 漫播 fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
