# Walkie Cloud vs PinoFBT

The clearest difference is rating: Walkie Cloud at 4.9 against PinoFBT's 3.6. Walkie Cloud also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). PinoFBT's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (348 vs 19). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Walkie Cloud sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and PinoFBT sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Walkie Cloud holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PinoFBT has 348 ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Walkie Cloud ships an update every 13 months, PinoFBT weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
