# 爱主题 vs idesktop

The clearest difference is ads: idesktop at none against 爱主题's shown. idesktop also leads on review sentiment (77% vs 50%). 爱主题's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 爱主题 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and idesktop sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

爱主题 holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 15 and 18 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of 爱主题's written reviews are positive against 77% of idesktop's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

爱主题 ships an update every 2 weeks, idesktop every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 2, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
