# TingShow vs 绝望主妇

The clearest difference is ads: 绝望主妇 at none against TingShow's shown. 绝望主妇 also leads on ratings volume (44 vs 2). TingShow's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 65%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TingShow sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and 绝望主妇 sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TingShow holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 绝望主妇 has 44 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 86% of TingShow's written reviews are positive against 65% of 绝望主妇's.

TingShow ships an update fortnightly, 绝望主妇 every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
