# Beauty vs Clutter IX

Beauty and Clutter IX both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 85% of Beauty's written reviews are positive against 13% of Clutter IX's. Beauty also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 114). Clutter IX's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 14 months) and iOS requirement (9.3 vs 13.4). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beauty sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Clutter IX sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Beauty against 4.6 for Clutter IX. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beauty has 14K ratings behind it against 114, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 85% of Beauty's written reviews are positive against 13% of Clutter IX's.

Beauty ships an update every 14 months, Clutter IX every 3 months. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
