# been vs been

The clearest difference is ads: been at none against been's shown. been also leads on ratings volume (9.5K vs 162) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). been's advantage is review sentiment (77% vs 59%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. been sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and been sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for been against 4.6 for been. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: been has 9.5K ratings behind it against 162, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 59% of been's written reviews are positive against 77% of been's.

been ships an update every 10 days, been every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
