# Summary vs Snipora

The clearest difference is ads: Summary at none against Snipora's shown. Summary also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). Snipora's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Summary sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Snipora sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Summary ships an update every 4 weeks, Snipora every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
