Cladwell vs Stylebook: Which Wardrobe App Fits You?

Start with the help you want.

Choose Cladwell if…

You want suggestions you can react to and a stylist you can ask about a dinner, a trip or a difficult piece. Color and style discovery can give you a starting direction when you do not already have one.

Consider Stylebook if…

You enjoy arranging clothes into outfit collages and keeping detailed records. Stylebook’s manual tools and one-time payment are compelling if you want to do the styling yourself. See Stylebook’s offering.

Both apps help you work with an existing wardrobe. Stylebook also has Outfit Shuffle for generating combinations and AI background removal, so the choice is not simply automation versus no automation.

The differences that matter.

Colors from a photo are on iPhone and iPad for now. See it on me is available on iPhone, iPad and Android. The Style Quiz is available on iPhone, iPad and Android.

A closet you can start using.

Cladwell’s 15,000-item clothing catalog gives you a way to start without taking a photo of every piece. Choose an image that represents something you own, use a product link, or add a personal photo when the exact detail matters.

A catalog equivalent is useful for everyday basics. It may not capture the print, texture, cut or shade of your exact garment. You can combine catalog pieces with personal images rather than commit to one method for the whole closet.

Cladwell has been helping people make more of their wardrobes since 2016. That history is a reason to consider it; the useful test is still whether it helps you wear your clothes. Explore the current app.

The outfit planner who already has ideas

If you enjoy laying out a week of looks on Sunday, a flexible canvas and reliable records may be more useful than a conversation. If the hard part is coming up with a look at all, help making that decision may be worth a subscription.

Try this before moving your whole closet

Use the same jacket, two tops, two bottoms and shoes. Build a work outfit and a weekend outfit, then record one. Notice whether you enjoy composing the looks or would rather receive a starting suggestion.

Cladwell now, and next.

In testing for iPhone and iPad 6.5

Version 6.5 is in TestFlight and has not been released on the App Store. Its new screens and fixes are described here as a preview, not as features in the current download.

Your piece, in one place: A new item card brings together price, purchase month, wears, cost per wear and brand, with a clearer way to rename the piece and fill in missing details. The update also fixes a crash when adding tags.
A closer look at an outfit: Open a look from Outfits to see its pieces, stylist note, your notes and Lists together, with outfit actions in one detail screen. Saved lists can be viewed by capsule while worn history stays together.
Clearer AI usage messages: See whether your monthly AI is used up or a particular image request needs more than you have left, with the reset date in your local time. Monthly allowances reset on your subscription billing date.
Extra AI, when available: One-time packs of extra AI are being tested. They are not yet available to buy in the production app; availability depends on store approval and rollout.

Morning outfit delivery is not yet available. Android releases have their own timing; the 6.5 preview above describes iPhone and iPad.

Costs and devices.

Cladwell

Cataloging your closet is free. Web subscriptions to Your Stylist cost $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year (USD). Your Stylist adds paid styling guidance. Web purchases do not include a free trial. In-app prices and trial offers may differ by platform, region and eligibility. Check your purchase screen for the price, trial and cancellation terms that apply to you. Existing subscribers keep their current terms.

AI features include a monthly allowance. Settings shows your AI usage; your allowance resets on your subscription billing date. Images can use more AI than chat or outfit ideas.

Stylebook

Stylebook’s official FAQ lists a one-time US purchase of $4.99, rather than a subscription. Confirm the price in your App Store. That is a meaningful advantage if recurring cost is your main concern.

Stylebook’s FAQ lists iPhone and iPad, with iCloud sync. It does not offer an Android version.

Check Stylebook’s current offering and Cladwell’s plan details. Compare the features and allowances you will actually use, not just the headline price.

Where Stylebook may be better.

Stylebook may be the better value for a self-directed iPhone user. Cladwell’s paid guidance needs to earn its place in your routine. A longer feature list or the presence of AI is not, by itself, a reason to subscribe.

You do not need to rebuild a working digital wardrobe just because another app has launched something new. Try a small selection first. Check how you can preserve your records before canceling or deleting an existing account; this guide does not promise a direct transfer between apps.
