# Athens. vs OASA

The clearest difference is rating: OASA at 2.7 against Athens.'s 2.0. OASA also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Athens.'s advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 14%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Athens. sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. OASA asks for nothing beyond the download.

OASA holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Athens.'s written reviews are positive against 14% of OASA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Athens. ships an update every 2 months, OASA every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
