# Metrópoles vs CNN Brasil

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CNN Brasil at 47% against Metrópoles's 3%. CNN Brasil also leads on ratings volume (635 vs 1) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). Metrópoles's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Metrópoles holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CNN Brasil has 635 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 3% of Metrópoles's written reviews are positive against 47% of CNN Brasil's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Metrópoles ships an update every 5 weeks, CNN Brasil every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
