Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sup at none against cetera's 1. Sup also leads on ratings volume (5K vs 119). cetera's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 51%) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 26.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. cetera sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Sup asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Sup against 4.5 for cetera. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sup has 5K ratings behind it against 119, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 51% of Sup's written reviews are positive against 83% of cetera's.
Sup ships an update every 6 days, cetera weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
