# Tasted vs Sips

The clearest difference is ads: Sips at none against Tasted's shown. Tasted's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tasted sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Sips sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tasted ships an update weekly, Sips every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on October 12, 2026.
