# Tribe Chat vs Beiko

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Tribe Chat at 130 against Beiko's 3. On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tribe Chat sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Beiko sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Tribe Chat against 5.0 for Beiko. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tribe Chat has 130 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 96% of Tribe Chat's written reviews are positive against 100% of Beiko's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
