# White Background Frame vs white_border

The clearest difference is rating: White Background Frame at 4.6 against white_border's 2.6. White Background Frame also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (697 vs 5). white_border's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 30%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. White Background Frame sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and white_border sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

White Background Frame holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: White Background Frame has 697 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of White Background Frame's written reviews are positive against 67% of white_border's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
