# Twins vs Split Screen

Twins and Split Screen both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 65% of Split Screen's written reviews are positive against 50% of Twins's. Split Screen also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 128). Twins's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Twins sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Split Screen sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Split Screen holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Split Screen has 1.1K ratings behind it against 128, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Twins's written reviews are positive against 65% of Split Screen's.

Twins ships an update weekly, Split Screen every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
