# IMPACTY vs Night Zookeeper

The clearest difference is ads: Night Zookeeper at none against IMPACTY's shown. Night Zookeeper also leads on ratings volume (592 vs 1). IMPACTY's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IMPACTY sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Night Zookeeper sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

IMPACTY holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Night Zookeeper has 592 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

IMPACTY ships an update every 9 days, Night Zookeeper every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
