# Thrift vs Cinched

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cinched at 100% against Thrift's 50%. Cinched also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Thrift's advantage is ratings volume (163 vs 10) and chart position (#71 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Thrift sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Cinched sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cinched holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Thrift has 163 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Thrift's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cinched's.

Thrift ships an update every 2 weeks, Cinched every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 9, 2026.
