# Practical Wireless vs Edition Dog Magazine

The clearest difference is rating: Practical Wireless at 5.0 against Edition Dog Magazine's 3.7. Practical Wireless also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 11 months vs every 37 months). Edition Dog Magazine's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Practical Wireless sells 31 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and Edition Dog Magazine sells 34 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Practical Wireless holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Practical Wireless has 17 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Practical Wireless ships an update every 11 months, Edition Dog Magazine every 37 months. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and July 9, 2026 respectively.
