# Hide.io vs AI

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hide.io at 58% against AI's 12%. Hide.io also leads on rating (3.7 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (3.3K vs 6). AI's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hide.io sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and AI sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Hide.io holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hide.io has 3.3K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 58% of Hide.io's written reviews are positive against 12% of AI's.

Hide.io ships an update every 8 days, AI weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
