# Secrets vs Elephas

The clearest difference is rating: Secrets at 4.6 against Elephas's 2.5. Secrets also leads on review sentiment (62% vs 26%) and ratings volume (188 vs 12). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Secrets sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Elephas sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Secrets holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Secrets has 188 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 62% of Secrets's written reviews are positive against 26% of Elephas's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
