# Rootd vs Still

The clearest difference is ads: Still at none against Rootd's shown. Still also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Rootd's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 7) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rootd sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Still sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $39.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Still holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rootd has 11K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Rootd ships an update weekly, Still every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
