Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Beszel holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beszel has 16 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Beszel's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cup for Gitea's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Beszel ships an update weekly, Cup for Gitea every 2 days. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
