# KnowHim vs Joyfolks

The clearest difference is monetization model: KnowHim at free against Joyfolks's freemium. KnowHim also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 1). Joyfolks's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KnowHim sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Joyfolks sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 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 — 5.0 for KnowHim against 5.0 for Joyfolks. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KnowHim has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

KnowHim ships an update monthly, Joyfolks every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
