# CS vs ForwardPOD

The clearest difference is rating: CS at 5.0 against ForwardPOD's 2.5. ForwardPOD's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (50% vs 33%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CS sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. ForwardPOD asks for nothing beyond the download.

CS holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of CS's written reviews are positive against 50% of ForwardPOD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

CS ships an update every 2 months, ForwardPOD every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and June 11, 2026 respectively.
