# Wisuki vs Cyclono

The clearest difference is rating: Wisuki at 4.6 against Cyclono's 4.2. Wisuki also leads on ratings volume (875 vs 26) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.6). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wisuki sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month and Cyclono sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Wisuki holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wisuki has 875 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Wisuki's written reviews are positive against 67% of Cyclono's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
