# Twenty vs ChapterPals

The clearest difference is price: ChapterPals at Free against Twenty's $7.99. ChapterPals also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 8 months). Twenty's advantage is ratings volume (29K vs 5) and chart position (#1 vs unranked). On rating, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ChapterPals is free to download; Twenty costs $7.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Twenty against 5.0 for ChapterPals. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Twenty has 29K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 95% of Twenty's written reviews are positive against 100% of ChapterPals's.

Twenty ships an update every 8 months, ChapterPals every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
