# Termius vs WTKit

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Termius at 19K against WTKit's 4. Termius also leads on chart position (#3 vs unranked). WTKit's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 81%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Termius sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $15.00 per month and WTKit sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WTKit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Termius has 19K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of Termius's written reviews are positive against 100% of WTKit's.

Termius ships an update fortnightly, WTKit weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
