# StoryPop vs toongether

StoryPop also leads on review sentiment (92% vs 83%) and device support (3 vs 1). toongether's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 39).

Both are free to download. StoryPop sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and toongether sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
