# COMPOUND vs Pepper

The clearest difference is monetization model: Pepper at freemium against COMPOUND's subscription. Pepper also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (22 vs 4). COMPOUND's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. COMPOUND sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Pepper sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 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 COMPOUND against 5.0 for Pepper. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pepper has 22 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

COMPOUND ships an update every 9 days, Pepper every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
