# Scrolly vs MindCue AI

The clearest difference is monetization model: Scrolly at free against MindCue AI's freemium. Scrolly also leads on ratings volume (226 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). MindCue AI's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 8 days) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scrolly sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and MindCue AI sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MindCue AI holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scrolly has 226 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Scrolly ships an update every 8 days, MindCue AI every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
