# Lanthier vs NbN3

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NbN3 at none against Lanthier's 2. NbN3 also leads on rating (4.1 vs 3.8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). Lanthier's advantage is review sentiment (62% vs 39%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lanthier sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.49 per year. NbN3 asks for nothing beyond the download.

NbN3 holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Lanthier's written reviews are positive against 39% of NbN3's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. Both last shipped on September 10, 2026.
