# HTMLKit vs CPU

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CPU at none against HTMLKit's 1. CPU also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). HTMLKit's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HTMLKit sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. CPU asks for nothing beyond the download.

HTMLKit ships an update every 5 months, CPU daily. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and July 29, 2026 respectively.
