# Hyper vs ArtCopy

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ArtCopy at 100% against Hyper's 39%. ArtCopy also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 25) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Hyper's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hyper sells 25 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. ArtCopy asks for nothing beyond the download.

ArtCopy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hyper has 11K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of Hyper's written reviews are positive against 100% of ArtCopy's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
