# BeLTOON vs BNOW

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BeLTOON at 64% against BNOW's 0%. BeLTOON also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). BNOW's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BeLTOON sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and BNOW sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BeLTOON ships an update every 3 months, BNOW every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
