# Fin vs Oolong

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Oolong at 75% against Fin's 47%. Oolong also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3). Fin's advantage is ratings volume (63 vs 8) and device support (5 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fin sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Oolong sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Oolong holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fin has 63 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 47% of Fin's written reviews are positive against 75% of Oolong's.

Fin ships an update every 3 weeks, Oolong every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
