# 新浪邮箱 vs CATLINK

The clearest difference is rating: 新浪邮箱 at 3.7 against CATLINK's 2.7. 新浪邮箱 also leads on ratings volume (314 vs 97) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). CATLINK's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 30) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 新浪邮箱 sells 30 in-app purchases, starting at $18.99 per year. CATLINK asks for nothing beyond the download.

新浪邮箱 holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 314 and 97 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of 新浪邮箱's written reviews are positive against 27% of CATLINK's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

新浪邮箱 ships an update monthly, CATLINK weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
