# Choco Store vs Tacticano

The clearest difference is ads: Tacticano at none against Choco Store's shown. Choco Store's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Choco Store sells 17 one-off in-app purchases and Tacticano sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Choco Store ships an update every 11 days, Tacticano every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
