# Random vs Chancilo

The clearest difference is ads: Chancilo at none against Random's shown. Chancilo also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (38% vs 18%). Random's advantage is ratings volume (85 vs 15) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Random sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Chancilo sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Random against 4.4 for Chancilo. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Random has 85 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 18% of Random's written reviews are positive against 38% of Chancilo's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
