# Pala vs KEEPit

The clearest difference is ads: KEEPit at none against Pala's shown. KEEPit also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Pala's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pala sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and KEEPit sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

KEEPit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pala has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Pala ships an update weekly, KEEPit every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
