# Imprisoned vs Relatos

The clearest difference is rating: Relatos at 5.0 against Imprisoned's 4.1. Relatos also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 17 months). Imprisoned's advantage is ratings volume (29 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Imprisoned sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Relatos sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Relatos holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Imprisoned has 29 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of Imprisoned's written reviews are positive against 100% of Relatos's.

Imprisoned ships an update every 17 months, Relatos every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
