# Lovora vs Tapling

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tapling at 73% against Lovora's 17%. Tapling also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). Lovora's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (3.2K vs 15). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lovora sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Tapling asks for nothing beyond the download.

Lovora holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lovora has 3.2K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Lovora's written reviews are positive against 73% of Tapling's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Lovora ships an update every 9 days, Tapling every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
