# Negócios vs Público

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Negócios at 69% against Público's 22%. Negócios also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Público's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (51 vs 4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Negócios sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Público sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Público holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Público has 51 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Negócios's written reviews are positive against 22% of Público's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Negócios ships an update every 6 weeks, Público every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
