# DeckSettings vs Plezy

The clearest difference is price: DeckSettings at Free against Plezy's $5.99. DeckSettings also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (5.0 vs 4.5). Plezy's advantage is chart position (#5 vs unranked) and ratings volume (125 vs 16). On update cadence, ads, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

DeckSettings is free to download; Plezy costs $5.99 up front. Plezy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. DeckSettings asks for nothing beyond the download.

DeckSettings holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Plezy has 125 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of DeckSettings's written reviews are positive against 74% of Plezy's.

DeckSettings ships an update every 11 days, Plezy weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
