# Holfuy vs Mountain

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Holfuy at none against Mountain's 2. Holfuy also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.1). Mountain's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (707 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mountain sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Holfuy asks for nothing beyond the download.

Mountain holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mountain has 707 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Holfuy's written reviews are positive against 74% of Mountain's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Holfuy ships an update every 3 months, Mountain every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
