# 老罗语录 vs NativePod

The clearest difference is ads: NativePod at none against 老罗语录's shown. NativePod also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 71%). 老罗语录's advantage is ratings volume (10 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 16.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 老罗语录 sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and NativePod sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for 老罗语录 against 5.0 for NativePod. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 老罗语录 has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 71% of 老罗语录's written reviews are positive against 100% of NativePod's.

老罗语录 ships an update every 2 months, NativePod every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
