# OzarksFirst vs FeedLizard

The clearest difference is price: OzarksFirst at Free against FeedLizard's $4.99. OzarksFirst also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). FeedLizard's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 weeks). On in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

OzarksFirst is free to download; FeedLizard costs $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

FeedLizard holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OzarksFirst has 1.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

OzarksFirst ships an update every 6 weeks, FeedLizard every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
