# Clean up vs CleanNow

Clean up and CleanNow are too close to call on the numbers: across 6 compared parameters — price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.

Both are free to download. Clean up sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and CleanNow sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
