# eTicket vs Raily

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Raily at none against eTicket's 10. Raily also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). eTicket's advantage is ratings volume (62 vs 9) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. eTicket sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Raily asks for nothing beyond the download.

Raily holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eTicket has 62 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of eTicket's written reviews are positive against 100% of Raily's.

eTicket ships an update monthly, Raily every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
