Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Capsule at 90% against Dosewolf's 33%. Capsule also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). Dosewolf's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Dosewolf sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Capsule sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dosewolf holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Capsule has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Dosewolf's written reviews are positive against 90% of Capsule's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dosewolf ships an update every 3 months, Capsule every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
