# Tuist vs Happy

The clearest difference is rating: Happy at 4.9 against Tuist's 3.0. Happy also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 2) and review sentiment (71% vs 50%). Tuist's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Happy sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month. Tuist asks for nothing beyond the download.

Happy holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Happy has 1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Tuist's written reviews are positive against 71% of Happy's.

Tuist ships an update every 3 weeks, Happy weekly. Both last shipped on October 28, 2026.
