# Uplock vs Studio Color

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Studio Color at none against Uplock's 6. Studio Color also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). Uplock's advantage is ratings volume (125 vs 1) and device support (5 vs 3). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Uplock sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Studio Color asks for nothing beyond the download.

Studio Color holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Uplock has 125 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Uplock ships an update every 2 weeks, Studio Color every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
