# Ghostalker vs Sincerely

The clearest difference is price: Sincerely at Free against Ghostalker's $2.99. Sincerely also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.4) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months). Ghostalker's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (50% vs 40%). On ads there is nothing between them.

Sincerely is free to download; Ghostalker costs $2.99 up front. Sincerely sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Ghostalker asks for nothing beyond the download.

Sincerely holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sincerely has 36K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Ghostalker's written reviews are positive against 40% of Sincerely's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Ghostalker ships an update every 5 months, Sincerely every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
