# Subsee vs Kotekan

The clearest difference is rating: Kotekan at 5.0 against Subsee's 4.4. Kotekan also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 61%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Subsee's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (117 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Subsee sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year and Kotekan sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kotekan holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subsee has 117 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 61% of Subsee's written reviews are positive against 89% of Kotekan's.

Subsee ships an update monthly, Kotekan every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
