# 词令 vs KrKrCat

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 词令 at none against KrKrCat's 1. KrKrCat's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KrKrCat sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 词令 asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for 词令 against 4.9 for KrKrCat. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KrKrCat has 14 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 90% of 词令's written reviews are positive against 94% of KrKrCat's.

词令 ships an update every 3 weeks, KrKrCat every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
