Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WordPress at none against Ruby's 6. WordPress also leads on ratings volume (22K vs 1). Ruby's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (60% vs 37%). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Ruby sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.79 per month. WordPress asks for nothing beyond the download.
Ruby holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WordPress has 22K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 37% of WordPress's written reviews are positive against 60% of Ruby's.
WordPress ships an update every 3 weeks, Ruby every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
