Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: SILT at every 5 days against Slender Threads's every 3 weeks. SILT also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and chart position (#208 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Slender Threads sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and SILT sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SILT holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SILT has 4.2K ratings behind it against 519, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Slender Threads's written reviews are positive against 77% of SILT's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Slender Threads ships an update every 3 weeks, SILT every 5 days. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
