# 小睡眠 vs 长生记

The clearest difference is ads: 长生记 at none against 小睡眠's shown. 长生记 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). 小睡眠's advantage is ratings volume (642 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 小睡眠 sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and 长生记 sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

长生记 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 小睡眠 has 642 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 75% and 76% positive.

小睡眠 ships an update every 2 weeks, 长生记 every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
