# HINATA vs SunLight

The clearest difference is ads: SunLight at none against HINATA's shown. HINATA's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (17 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HINATA sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and SunLight sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HINATA ships an update every 5 days, SunLight fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
