# Talon vs REST API Client

The clearest difference is ads: Talon at none against REST API Client's shown. Talon also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (29 vs 6). REST API Client's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Talon sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and REST API Client sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Talon holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 29 and 6 respectively.

Talon ships an update every 3 months, REST API Client every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
