# Happy vs 小码盒

The clearest difference is rating: Happy at 4.9 against 小码盒's 3.0. Happy also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (1K vs 2). 小码盒's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Happy sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month and 小码盒 sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

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 complicate that: 72% of Happy's written reviews are positive against 100% of 小码盒's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Happy ships an update weekly, 小码盒 every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
