# Sofa vs Digext

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Digext at 100% against Sofa's 60%. Digext also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Sofa's advantage is ratings volume (3.1K vs 12) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sofa sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Digext sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Digext holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sofa has 3.1K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 60% of Sofa's written reviews are positive against 100% of Digext's.

Sofa ships an update weekly, Digext every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
