# WEB.DE vs FastPost

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WEB.DE at 73% against FastPost's 29%. WEB.DE also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). FastPost's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WEB.DE sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and FastPost sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WEB.DE ships an update fortnightly, FastPost every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
