# Happy vs Port22

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Happy at 1K against Port22's 1. Happy also leads on chart position (#79 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Happy sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month and Port22 sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Happy against 5.0 for Port22. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Happy has 1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Happy ships an update weekly, Port22 every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
