# XL Mail vs Game Mail

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Game Mail at 82% against XL Mail's 0%. Game Mail also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 25 months). XL Mail's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. XL Mail sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Game Mail sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

XL Mail holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Game Mail has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of XL Mail's written reviews are positive against 82% of Game Mail's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

XL Mail ships an update every 25 months, Game Mail every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
