# Reconyx Connect vs CHSN

The clearest difference is rating: CHSN at 4.3 against Reconyx Connect's 3.2. CHSN also leads on ratings volume (3.9K vs 79) and chart position (#47 vs unranked). Reconyx Connect's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CHSN sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Reconyx Connect asks for nothing beyond the download.

CHSN holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CHSN has 3.9K ratings behind it against 79, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 21% of Reconyx Connect's written reviews are positive against 27% of CHSN's.

Reconyx Connect ships an update every 3 weeks, CHSN fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
