Octocon is the modern, all-in-one toolkit for systems (such as those with DID and OSDD) to manage their disorder and express themselves. Manage a list of your alters complete with a name, profile picture, pronouns, and any custom information you can imagine! Analyze your front history in complete detail, going back to the day you installed the app. Keep a system-wide end-to-end encrypted journal to note down any important information. Alters each have their own private journal, too! Share aspects of your system with friends with fine-grained control, and let them receive push notifications for front changes. Octocon is built to be privacy-first; all data must be explicitly shared! All of your data syncs in real-time with the Octocon Discord bot, so you can start sending messages on Discord as your alters instantly. Have any issues, suggestions, or thoughts? Our community is happy to help on Discord! https://octocon.app/discord

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Octocon at 4.5 against PluralMe's 3.8. Octocon also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (57 vs 4). PluralMe's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 11 months) and review sentiment (75% vs 64%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Octocon holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Octocon has 57 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Octocon's written reviews are positive against 75% of PluralMe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Octocon ships an update every 11 months, PluralMe every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
