Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Heirloom at 100% against WordPress's 37%. Heirloom also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). WordPress's advantage is ratings volume (22K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Heirloom 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 100% of Heirloom's.
WordPress ships an update every 3 weeks, Heirloom every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
