# WitGarage vs Backfeed

The clearest difference is rating: Backfeed at 5.0 against WitGarage's 2.1. Backfeed also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). WitGarage's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ratings volume (20 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Backfeed sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. WitGarage asks for nothing beyond the download.

Backfeed holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WitGarage has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

WitGarage ships an update every 6 weeks, Backfeed every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
