Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Epistle at free with in-app purchases against All Nation's subscription. Epistle also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. All Nation sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $185.99 per year and Epistle sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for All Nation against 5.0 for Epistle. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Epistle has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
All Nation ships an update every 5 months, Epistle every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and August 24, 2026 respectively.
