# Circuitous vs Beauty

The clearest difference is price: Beauty at Free against Circuitous's $1.99. Beauty also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 2) and update cadence (every 14 months vs every 35 months). Circuitous's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 6). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Beauty is free to download; Circuitous costs $1.99 up front. Beauty sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Circuitous asks for nothing beyond the download.

Circuitous holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beauty has 14K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Circuitous's written reviews are positive against 85% of Beauty's.

Circuitous ships an update every 35 months, Beauty every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
