Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ChatPrivate at 95% against SIMless's 18%. ChatPrivate also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). SIMless's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (3.5K vs 6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ChatPrivate sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $20.49 per month and SIMless sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SIMless holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SIMless has 3.5K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of ChatPrivate's written reviews are positive against 18% of SIMless's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ChatPrivate ships an update every 5 months, SIMless every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
