# Gleam vs QuickWit

The clearest difference is review sentiment: QuickWit at 100% against Gleam's 47%. QuickWit also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Gleam's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 10) and chart position (#154 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gleam sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and QuickWit sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

QuickWit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gleam has 12K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 47% of Gleam's written reviews are positive against 100% of QuickWit's.

Gleam ships an update every 5 days, QuickWit weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
