# Partiful vs Glimpse

The clearest difference is monetization model: Partiful at free against Glimpse's free with in-app purchases. Partiful also leads on ratings volume (277K vs 380) and chart position (#2 vs unranked). Glimpse's advantage is review sentiment (96% vs 87%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Partiful sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Glimpse sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Partiful holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Partiful has 277K ratings behind it against 380, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Partiful's written reviews are positive against 96% of Glimpse's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Partiful ships an update weekly, Glimpse every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
