# 직상 vs 완강메이트

The clearest difference is ads: 완강메이트 at none against 직상's shown. 완강메이트 also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 직상 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and 완강메이트 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

직상 ships an update every 2 weeks, 완강메이트 every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
