# Weex vs Browser

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Weex at 247 against Browser's 6. Weex also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Weex sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Browser sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Weex against 4.8 for Browser. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Weex has 247 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 93% of Weex's written reviews are positive against 100% of Browser's.

Weex ships an update every 3 weeks, Browser every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
