# DeDuplicate vs HangPlan

The clearest difference is price: HangPlan at Free against DeDuplicate's $7.99. HangPlan also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 weeks). DeDuplicate's advantage is ratings volume (128 vs 3) and chart position (#118 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

HangPlan is free to download; DeDuplicate costs $7.99 up front. DeDuplicate sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and HangPlan sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HangPlan holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DeDuplicate has 128 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

DeDuplicate ships an update every 2 weeks, HangPlan every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
