# Congresswolf vs Election

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Congresswolf at 80% against Election's 14%. Congresswolf also leads on rating (4.2 vs 1.5). Election's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Congresswolf sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Election sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Congresswolf holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 1.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 33 and 66 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Congresswolf's written reviews are positive against 14% of Election's.

Congresswolf ships an update every 6 months, Election every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
