# GTW vs Booklet Maker

The clearest difference is price: Booklet Maker at Free against GTW's $5.99. Booklet Maker also leads on rating (3.5 vs 3.1) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). GTW's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (55% vs 33%). On ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Booklet Maker is free to download; GTW costs $5.99 up front. Booklet Maker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. GTW asks for nothing beyond the download.

Booklet Maker holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GTW has 32 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of GTW's written reviews are positive against 33% of Booklet Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

GTW ships an update every 3 weeks, Booklet Maker every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
