# Siddur vs Pray!

The clearest difference is price: Pray! at Free against Siddur's $5.99. Pray! also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.6) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 months). Siddur's advantage is chart position (#105 vs unranked) and ratings volume (36 vs 7). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Pray! is free to download; Siddur costs $5.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Pray! holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Siddur has 36 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Siddur ships an update every 3 months, Pray! every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 4, 2026 respectively.
