# PicPlayPost vs Wecol

The clearest difference is ads: PicPlayPost at none against Wecol's shown. PicPlayPost also leads on ratings volume (99K vs 120) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). Wecol's advantage is review sentiment (95% vs 68%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PicPlayPost sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Wecol sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for PicPlayPost against 4.8 for Wecol. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PicPlayPost has 99K ratings behind it against 120, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 68% of PicPlayPost's written reviews are positive against 95% of Wecol's.

PicPlayPost ships an update monthly, Wecol every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
