# JellyCuts vs ShortWeb

JellyCuts and ShortWeb both sit at 3.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 50% of ShortWeb's written reviews are positive against 33% of JellyCuts's. JellyCuts's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (57 vs 9). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. JellyCuts sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and ShortWeb sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.6 for JellyCuts against 3.6 for ShortWeb. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: JellyCuts has 57 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 33% of JellyCuts's written reviews are positive against 50% of ShortWeb's.

JellyCuts ships an update every 3 weeks, ShortWeb every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
