# Frequency vs Frequency

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Frequency at 73% against Frequency's 0%. Frequency also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.9) and in-app purchases (none vs 10). Frequency's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Frequency ships an update every 10 days, Frequency fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
