Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 西江诗词 at 85% against Aikido's 50%. 西江诗词 also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 71 months) and ratings volume (69 vs 1). Aikido's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Aikido sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per year and 西江诗词 sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Aikido holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 西江诗词 has 69 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Aikido's written reviews are positive against 85% of 西江诗词's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Aikido ships an update every 71 months, 西江诗词 every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on November 13, 2026.
