# Slopes vs Wake

The clearest difference is rating: Slopes at 4.9 against Wake's 4.3. Slopes also leads on ratings volume (88K vs 7) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slopes sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $34.99 per year and Wake sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Slopes holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Slopes has 88K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Slopes ships an update every 9 days, Wake every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
