# Epistle vs Every So

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Every So at none against Epistle's 5. Epistle's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Epistle sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month. Every So asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Epistle against 5.0 for Every So. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Epistle has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Epistle ships an update every 3 weeks, Every So every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on August 24, 2026 and June 5, 2026 respectively.
