# Fruitz vs LIBALA

The clearest difference is rating: Fruitz at 4.6 against LIBALA's 1.0. Fruitz also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 1). LIBALA's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 18) and review sentiment (50% vs 29%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fruitz sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. LIBALA asks for nothing beyond the download.

Fruitz holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fruitz has 1.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Fruitz's written reviews are positive against 50% of LIBALA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Fruitz ships an update every 2 weeks, LIBALA every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
