# PSE vs CheetahTALK

The clearest difference is rating: PSE at 3.9 against CheetahTALK's 2.8. CheetahTALK's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

PSE holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14 and 29 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of PSE's written reviews are positive against 19% of CheetahTALK's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PSE ships an update every 3 months, CheetahTALK fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
