# Boxes vs WITS

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WITS at none against Boxes's 15. WITS also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 91%). Boxes's advantage is ratings volume (953 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Boxes sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 3 months. WITS asks for nothing beyond the download.

WITS holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Boxes has 953 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of Boxes's written reviews are positive against 100% of WITS's.

Boxes ships an update every 3 weeks, WITS every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 3, 2026 respectively.
