# Glimpse 2 vs Nutshell

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Nutshell at 64% against Glimpse 2's 41%. Nutshell also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). Glimpse 2's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 4.0) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Glimpse 2 sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Nutshell sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Glimpse 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 45 and 33 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Glimpse 2's written reviews are positive against 64% of Nutshell's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Glimpse 2 ships an update every 2 weeks, Nutshell weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
