# Triangle vs Loccali

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Triangle at 50% against Loccali's 0%. Triangle also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). Loccali's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 11 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Loccali sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Triangle asks for nothing beyond the download.

Loccali holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Triangle has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Triangle's written reviews are positive against 0% of Loccali's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Triangle ships an update every 11 months, Loccali every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
