# Dropout vs A24

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dropout at 99% against A24's 33%. Dropout also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (77K vs 188). A24's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dropout sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and A24 sells 112 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dropout holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dropout has 77K ratings behind it against 188, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 99% of Dropout's written reviews are positive against 33% of A24's.

Dropout ships an update every 2 months, A24 every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
