# Termix vs GoShell

The clearest difference is update cadence: Termix at every 6 weeks against GoShell's every 10 months. Termix also leads on ratings volume (19 vs 2) and chart position (#167 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Termix against 4.5 for GoShell. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Termix has 19 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Termix ships an update every 6 weeks, GoShell every 10 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
