# OffScreen vs Moment

The clearest difference is monetization model: Moment at free with in-app purchases against OffScreen's subscription. Moment also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5). OffScreen's advantage is ratings volume (2.6K vs 3). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OffScreen sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Moment sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Moment holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OffScreen has 2.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of OffScreen's written reviews are positive against 33% of Moment's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

OffScreen ships an update every 3 weeks, Moment every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
