# rakkup vs traka

The clearest difference is rating: traka at 5.0 against rakkup's 2.2. traka also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months). rakkup's advantage is ratings volume (25 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. rakkup sells 16 one-off in-app purchases and traka sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

traka holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: rakkup has 25 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

rakkup ships an update every 2 months, traka every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
