Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Chinese Stoke at 100% against 百度's 43%. Chinese Stoke also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.9 vs 4.5). 百度's advantage is ratings volume (31K vs 22) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 百度 sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Chinese Stoke sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Chinese Stoke holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

百度 ships an update weekly, Chinese Stoke every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
