# G vs Electron

The clearest difference is review sentiment: G at 80% against Electron's 0%. G also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.7) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. G sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Electron sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.79 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

G holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: G has 683 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of G's written reviews are positive against 0% of Electron's.

G ships an update fortnightly, Electron every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
