# CmtyHelp vs Valid

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CmtyHelp at none against Valid's 1. CmtyHelp also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and device support (3 vs 1). Valid's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (10K vs 8). On price, rating and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Valid sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $12.49 per 7 days. CmtyHelp asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for CmtyHelp against 4.8 for Valid. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Valid has 10K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of CmtyHelp's written reviews are positive against 78% of Valid's.

CmtyHelp ships an update every 3 weeks, Valid every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
