# Waffle vs Outfit Formulas

The clearest difference is ads: Waffle at none against Outfit Formulas's shown. Waffle also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.4) and chart position (#102 vs unranked). Outfit Formulas's advantage is review sentiment (66% vs 46%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Waffle sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Outfit Formulas sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Waffle holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Waffle has 11K ratings behind it against 1.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Waffle's written reviews are positive against 66% of Outfit Formulas's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Waffle ships an update weekly, Outfit Formulas every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
