# .shush vs Gulpo

The clearest difference is rating: Gulpo at 5.0 against .shush's 4.6. .shush's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.1). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. .shush sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Gulpo sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gulpo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of .shush's written reviews are positive against 75% of Gulpo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

.shush ships an update every 4 days, Gulpo every 3 days. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
