# Re vs Everbound

The clearest difference is ads: Everbound at none against Re's shown. Re's advantage is ratings volume (505 vs 22) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Re sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Everbound sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Re holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Re has 505 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 82% of Re's written reviews are positive against 80% of Everbound's.

Re ships an update every 10 days, Everbound fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
