# Clone Evolution vs Soul Gate

The clearest difference is ads: Clone Evolution at none against Soul Gate's shown. Clone Evolution also leads on review sentiment (65% vs 44%) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 438). Soul Gate's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months) and rating (4.8 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clone Evolution sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Soul Gate sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Soul Gate holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.8K and 438 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Clone Evolution's written reviews are positive against 44% of Soul Gate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Clone Evolution ships an update every 3 months, Soul Gate every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
