# Meteorfall vs Foretales

The clearest difference is rating: Foretales at 4.8 against Meteorfall's 4.3. Foretales also leads on update cadence (daily vs weekly) and ratings volume (165 vs 31). Meteorfall's advantage is review sentiment (69% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On ads, in-app purchases, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Meteorfall costs $6.99 and Foretales $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Foretales holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Foretales has 165 ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Meteorfall's written reviews are positive against 58% of Foretales's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Meteorfall ships an update weekly, Foretales daily. Both last shipped on October 28, 2026.
