# TOR Browser vs Mises Browser

The clearest difference is rating: TOR Browser at 4.5 against Mises Browser's 3.7. TOR Browser also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (13K vs 112). Mises Browser's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TOR Browser sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days and Mises Browser sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TOR Browser holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TOR Browser has 13K ratings behind it against 112, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 31% of TOR Browser's written reviews are positive against 27% of Mises Browser's.

TOR Browser ships an update every 3 weeks, Mises Browser monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
