Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pi at every 2 weeks against Void's every 2 months. Pi also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 13) and device support (5 vs 3). Void's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pi sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Void sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Void holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pi has 1.3K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Pi's written reviews are positive against 100% of Void's.
Pi ships an update every 2 weeks, Void every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
