# ECOS vs Gramático

The clearest difference is update cadence: Gramático at weekly against ECOS's every 2 months. Gramático also leads on ratings volume (341 vs 8) and review sentiment (55% vs 38%). ECOS's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ECOS sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and Gramático sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $13.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gramático holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gramático has 341 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 38% of ECOS's written reviews are positive against 55% of Gramático's.

ECOS ships an update every 2 months, Gramático weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
