# ChatSpace vs stdout.chat

The clearest difference is rating: stdout.chat at 5.0 against ChatSpace's 4.6. ChatSpace's advantage is ratings volume (3.4K vs 1) and chart position (#72 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ChatSpace sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and stdout.chat sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

stdout.chat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChatSpace has 3.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

ChatSpace ships an update fortnightly, stdout.chat every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
