# Dextopia vs Pokéos

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dextopia at none against Pokéos's 7. Dextopia also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Pokéos's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (74 vs 3). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pokéos sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Dextopia asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Dextopia against 4.8 for Pokéos. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pokéos has 74 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 50% and 50% positive.

Dextopia ships an update every 5 months, Pokéos every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
