# Social Ghost vs X

The clearest difference is review sentiment: X at 100% against Social Ghost's 25%. X also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and in-app purchases (none vs 20). Social Ghost's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 3). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Social Ghost sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. X asks for nothing beyond the download.

X holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Social Ghost has 2.4K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of Social Ghost's written reviews are positive against 100% of X's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 9, 2026 respectively.
