Indyx vs Whering: which wardrobe app is better, and where Sleqk fits

Indyx and Whering are two of the most searched closet apps, and they are built for different jobs. A side-by-side of what each one does, plus a third option if what you want is to see the outfit on yourself. Written by the Sleqk team.

Who wrote this

We build Sleqk, the third app on this page. We added it because people comparing Indyx and Whering often want something neither one is built around: seeing a planned outfit on their own photo. Weigh our part with that in mind.

Every claim about Indyx and Whering comes from their own App Store listings and websites, checked on 29 September 2026. Where a company does not mention a feature, we say "Not advertised". That means we could not find it, not that it is missing. We left prices out because they change too often. If something here is out of date, write to support@sleqk.com and we will fix it.

The short answer

Indyx is better if you want people, not AI, to style you, and if you want to resell what you no longer need. Its listing says it has no AI-generated outfits. Friends and paid human stylists style you instead.

Whering is better if you want AI outfits every day, planned around the weather, plus a detailed picture of what you wear and what it costs per wear.

Sleqk is the pick if you mainly want to see an outfit from your own pieces on your own photo before an event. It does not track what you wear or make packing lists. Indyx and Whering both do.

Indyx in short

Indyx is built around people. Its App Store listing says "No random outfits styled by robots." Instead, friends can style your closet, and you can book paid stylists for a set of styled outfits. Getting pieces in is easy: forward shopping receipts or paste product links, and it removes photo backgrounds for you.

It covers the planning basics well: drag-and-drop outfit boards, a calendar, cost per wear and packing lists. In June 2026 it added try-on from a single reference photo of you. And it is built for a second life for your clothes, with resale in the app.

Whering in short

Whering is built around a complete, measured closet. It is UK-based and runs on iPhone, Android and the web. It removes backgrounds, adds pieces from shop websites and can collect past purchases through its browser extension.

Its planner suggests outfits from your wardrobe and the weather, for trips, weekends and events. It tracks cost per wear and wear rate, builds packing lists and lets you see friends' closets. It does not advertise try-on, and it includes shopping, with a wishlist and a large product database.

Where Sleqk fits

Sleqk is built around one moment: the day before an event, deciding what to wear. You add the event and the city. The stylist reads the forecast and builds complete outfits only from pieces you own, shoes and bags included. Then it renders the outfit on your own photo, with the venue behind you if you like. Send the options to friends and let them vote.

There is nothing for sale in the app. No shop, no affiliate links, no ads. Photos are stored in the EU and never used to train models. What it does not do yet: track what you wear, work out cost per wear, or make packing lists. If those matter most, Indyx or Whering will suit you better.

Which one to choose

You want a person to style you, or you want to sell what you no longer reach for: Indyx.

You want a new outfit idea each morning and a clear picture of what you wear: Whering.

You have a wedding, a trip or a big meeting coming and want to see the outfit on yourself first: Sleqk.

All three are free to start. Add the same ten pieces to two of them and use both for a week. For six more apps side by side, see our comparison of nine wardrobe apps in the Journal.
