# Comi vs Bang

Comi and Bang both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 96% of Comi's written reviews are positive against 61% of Bang's. On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Comi sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Bang sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bang holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 60 and 74 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of Comi's written reviews are positive against 61% of Bang's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Comi ships an update every 2 months, Bang every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
