# Filtron vs InstSaver

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Filtron at 88% against InstSaver's 26%. Filtron also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 months). InstSaver's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Filtron sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and InstSaver sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

InstSaver holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InstSaver has 1.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Filtron's written reviews are positive against 26% of InstSaver's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Filtron ships an update every 3 days, InstSaver every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
