# Three vs An Post

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Three at 1.2K against An Post's 64. Three also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). An Post's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Three has 1.2K ratings behind it against 64, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 18% of Three's written reviews are positive against 24% of An Post's.

Three ships an update every 2 weeks, An Post every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
