# PostX vs SimpleRequests

The clearest difference is rating: SimpleRequests at 5.0 against PostX's 3.0. PostX's advantage is ratings volume (10 vs 1) and chart position (#123 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PostX sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and SimpleRequests sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SimpleRequests holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PostX has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

PostX ships an update every 3 months, SimpleRequests every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
