Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 인스티즈 at 93% against 다음 카페's 30%. 인스티즈 also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). 다음 카페's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 13) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, 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

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. 인스티즈 sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. 다음 카페 asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

다음 카페 holds the better App Store score, 2.8 against 2.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of 다음 카페's written reviews are positive against 93% of 인스티즈's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

다음 카페 ships an update every 9 days, 인스티즈 every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
