# Die Presse vs FALTER

The clearest difference is review sentiment: FALTER at 100% against Die Presse's 64%. FALTER also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). Die Presse's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Die Presse sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and FALTER sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FALTER holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 22 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of Die Presse's written reviews are positive against 100% of FALTER's.

Die Presse ships an update fortnightly, FALTER every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and August 28, 2026 respectively.
