# Cancely vs CancelPal

The clearest difference is rating: CancelPal at 5.0 against Cancely's 4.7. CancelPal also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Cancely's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cancely sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and CancelPal sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CancelPal holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cancely has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Cancely ships an update every 3 weeks, CancelPal weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
