# Wayback vs Cosimo's

The clearest difference is ads: Wayback at none against Cosimo's's shown. Wayback also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (15K vs 109). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Wayback against 4.9 for Cosimo's. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wayback has 15K ratings behind it against 109, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Wayback ships an update every 3 months, Cosimo's every 17 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
