# Daimon vs Linger

The clearest difference is ads: Linger at none against Daimon's shown. Linger also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 9 days) and device support (3 vs 1). Daimon's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (85K vs 1). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Daimon sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Linger sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month. 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 Daimon against 5.0 for Linger. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Daimon has 85K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Daimon ships an update every 9 days, Linger every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
