# Chugli vs JoyFeed

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chugli at none against JoyFeed's 1. Chugli also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). JoyFeed's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. JoyFeed sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month. Chugli asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Chugli against 5.0 for JoyFeed. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: JoyFeed has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Chugli ships an update every 3 months, JoyFeed every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 8, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
