# Raya vs Nimah

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Nimah at 100% against Raya's 14%. Nimah also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0). Raya's advantage is ratings volume (17K vs 1) and chart position (#5 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Raya sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Nimah sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Nimah holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Raya has 17K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 14% of Raya's written reviews are positive against 100% of Nimah's.

Raya ships an update every 3 days, Nimah weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
