# Xmind vs 轻松鲨

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Xmind at 7K against 轻松鲨's 6. 轻松鲨's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 76%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Xmind sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 per month and 轻松鲨 sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

轻松鲨 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Xmind has 7K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 76% of Xmind's written reviews are positive against 100% of 轻松鲨's.

Xmind ships an update every 10 days, 轻松鲨 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
