# 75grand vs Code

The clearest difference is ads: Code at none against 75grand's shown. Code also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). 75grand's advantage is ratings volume (18 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Code holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 75grand has 18 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

75grand ships an update every 2 months, Code every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 9, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
