# ResX vs ForkSmart

The clearest difference is ads: ForkSmart at none against ResX's shown. ResX's advantage is chart position (#13 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ResX sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and ForkSmart sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
