# Beeper vs Fairplay

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fairplay at none against Beeper's 4. Fairplay also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Beeper's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beeper sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Fairplay asks for nothing beyond the download.

Fairplay holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beeper has 1.2K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Beeper ships an update every 5 days, Fairplay weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
