# Rueblur vs Kacti

The clearest difference is ads: Kacti at none against Rueblur's shown. Kacti also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 days) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Rueblur's advantage is ratings volume (52 vs 5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rueblur sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Kacti sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kacti holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rueblur has 52 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Rueblur ships an update every 10 days, Kacti every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
