# Cuty vs DropOS

The clearest difference is review sentiment: DropOS at 100% against Cuty's 27%. DropOS also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Cuty's advantage is ratings volume (5.2K vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cuty sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. DropOS asks for nothing beyond the download.
