Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: INMOST at 4.9 against Slender Threads's 4.6. INMOST also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). Slender Threads's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slender Threads sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and INMOST sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
INMOST holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 442 and 718 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Slender Threads's written reviews are positive against 81% of INMOST'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, INMOST every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
