# Parcel vs CJdropshipping

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Parcel at 86% against CJdropshipping's 49%. Parcel also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (23K vs 436). CJdropshipping's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Parcel sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per year. CJdropshipping asks for nothing beyond the download.

Parcel holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Parcel has 23K ratings behind it against 436, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 86% of Parcel's written reviews are positive against 49% of CJdropshipping's.

Parcel ships an update fortnightly, CJdropshipping weekly. Both last shipped on October 19, 2026.
