# SipCircle Wine vs Cellared

The clearest difference is ads: SipCircle Wine at none against Cellared's shown. Cellared's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SipCircle Wine sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Cellared sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for SipCircle Wine against 5.0 for Cellared. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cellared has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

SipCircle Wine ships an update every 5 days, Cellared every 8 days. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
