# DevMate vs Pingta

The clearest difference is rating: Pingta at 5.0 against DevMate's 3.4. Pingta also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3). DevMate's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months) and chart position (#178 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DevMate sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Pingta asks for nothing beyond the download.

Pingta holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DevMate has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

DevMate ships an update every 8 days, Pingta every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
