# Observador vs PSD

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PSD at none against Observador's 14. PSD also leads on ads (none vs shown). Observador's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and device support (4 vs 2). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Observador sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. PSD asks for nothing beyond the download.

Observador ships an update every 3 weeks, PSD every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and September 7, 2026 respectively.
