# AirWeb vs Duet Display

The clearest difference is rating: AirWeb at 5.0 against Duet Display's 4.4. AirWeb also leads on ads (none vs shown). Duet Display's advantage is ratings volume (49K vs 9) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AirWeb sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Duet Display sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

AirWeb holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Duet Display has 49K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of AirWeb's written reviews are positive against 46% of Duet Display's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

AirWeb ships an update every 5 weeks, Duet Display every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 14, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
