Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PatchUp at none against Artemis's 2. PatchUp also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%). Artemis's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (126 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Artemis sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. PatchUp asks for nothing beyond the download.
Artemis holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Artemis has 126 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of PatchUp's written reviews are positive against 75% of Artemis's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PatchUp ships an update monthly, Artemis every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
