# Gleam vs OffBookly

The clearest difference is review sentiment: OffBookly at 100% against Gleam's 47%. OffBookly also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Gleam's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 6) and chart position (#140 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gleam sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and OffBookly sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

OffBookly 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 6, 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 OffBookly's.

Gleam ships an update every 5 days, OffBookly every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
