# Wakespeed vs Epoch Li

The clearest difference is update cadence: Epoch Li at every 3 weeks against Wakespeed's every 5 months. Epoch Li also leads on rating (2.6 vs 2.2) and ratings volume (70 vs 6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Epoch Li holds the better App Store score, 2.6 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Epoch Li has 70 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Wakespeed's written reviews are positive against 29% of Epoch Li's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Wakespeed ships an update every 5 months, Epoch Li every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
