# Actimate vs Moth

The clearest difference is ads: Moth at none against Actimate's shown. Actimate's advantage is ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Actimate sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Moth sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. 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 Actimate against 5.0 for Moth. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Actimate has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Actimate ships an update weekly, Moth every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
