A message. From you, for you. Peek Message allows you to pin a single message to your lock screen or home widget. It's like a digital post-it, a message in your fridge or a silent note for your future self. You decide what he says. Use it to remember something important. Mark a special day. Write down a password that you always forget. Or give yourself a little compliment for the day. Peek Message is designed to do one thing well: save an important message for you. It's not a to-do list. It's not a notification system. It is a space for a thought that deserves to be in sight. Minimalist. Personal. Private. What you can do with Peek Message: - Set a personalized message at the same time - Show it on your lock screen or widget - Edit it at any time with a few taps - Use it for notes, reminders, quotes or whatever you want to keep in mind Peek Message doesn't sync to the cloud, doesn't connect to messaging platforms, doesn't store your data elsewhere. Your message lives alone on your device. Less noise. No distractions. Just a message that matters. From you, for you. Https://www.ocho.so/privacy Https://www.ocho.so/terms

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Peek Message at free against Re's freemium. Peek Message also leads on ratings volume (214 vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). Re's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Peek Message sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Re sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Re holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Peek Message has 214 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
