# Stocksnips vs Deviate

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Deviate at 100% against Stocksnips's 57%. Deviate also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). Stocksnips's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (666 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stocksnips sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Deviate sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Deviate holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stocksnips has 666 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 57% of Stocksnips's written reviews are positive against 100% of Deviate's.

Stocksnips ships an update every 2 months, Deviate every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
