# Jigsaw® Dating vs CloudAnime

The clearest difference is rating: CloudAnime at 5.0 against Jigsaw® Dating's 4.3. CloudAnime also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Jigsaw® Dating's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (3.2K vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Jigsaw® Dating sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days and CloudAnime sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CloudAnime holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Jigsaw® Dating has 3.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Jigsaw® Dating ships an update every 4 weeks, CloudAnime every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and July 8, 2026 respectively.
