# Island vs Reps

The clearest difference is update cadence: Island at every 4 days against Reps's monthly. Island also leads on ratings volume (19 vs 1). Reps's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Island sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Reps sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Reps holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Island has 19 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Island ships an update every 4 days, Reps monthly. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
