# WallStream vs UpNext

The clearest difference is rating: WallStream at 5.0 against UpNext's 3.9. WallStream also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). UpNext's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (41 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WallStream sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and UpNext sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WallStream holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UpNext has 41 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

WallStream ships an update every 4 days, UpNext every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
