# PicSplit vs Split the Pic

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PicSplit at 47% against Split the Pic's 6%. PicSplit also leads on ratings volume (765 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Split the Pic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PicSplit sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Split the Pic sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Split the Pic holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PicSplit has 765 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of PicSplit's written reviews are positive against 6% of Split the Pic's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PicSplit ships an update every 2 months, Split the Pic every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
