# Con vs Fanward

Con and Fanward both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Con's written reviews are positive against 50% of Fanward's. Con also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). Fanward's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fanward sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $18.99 per month. Con asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Con against 5.0 for Fanward. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fanward has 20 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of Con's written reviews are positive against 50% of Fanward's.

Con ships an update monthly, Fanward every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on July 18, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
