# Parcel vs UR Return

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Parcel at 23K against UR Return's 1. Parcel also leads on chart position (#25 vs unranked) and device support (5 vs 2). UR Return's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, 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 and UR Return sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

UR Return holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Parcel has 23K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Parcel ships an update fortnightly, UR Return every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
