# Mushoi vs Mango

The clearest difference is update cadence: Mango at fortnightly against Mushoi's every 6 months. Mushoi's advantage is iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mushoi sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Mango sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Mushoi ships an update every 6 months, Mango fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
