# Staslink vs EclipseGo

The clearest difference is rating: EclipseGo at 5.0 against Staslink's 4.4. EclipseGo also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Staslink's advantage is ratings volume (19K vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Staslink sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and EclipseGo sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

EclipseGo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Staslink has 19K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Staslink ships an update every 2 months, EclipseGo every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
