# Crait vs 默信

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Crait at 81% against 默信's 17%. Crait also leads on rating (4.7 vs 2.4) and ads (none vs shown). 默信's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Crait sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month and 默信 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Crait holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Crait has 94 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of Crait's written reviews are positive against 17% of 默信's.

Crait ships an update every 2 months, 默信 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
