Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pixm at none against NORMAL MAGAZINE's 17. Pixm also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 103 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.2). NORMAL MAGAZINE's advantage is ratings volume (62 vs 10). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. NORMAL MAGAZINE sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year. Pixm asks for nothing beyond the download.
NORMAL MAGAZINE holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NORMAL MAGAZINE has 62 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Pixm's written reviews are positive against 54% of NORMAL MAGAZINE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pixm ships an update every 2 months, NORMAL MAGAZINE every 103 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
