# Iron Muscle vs Pull

The clearest difference is rating: Pull at 4.7 against Iron Muscle's 3.0. Pull also leads on review sentiment (64% vs 32%) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 24 months). Iron Muscle's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pull sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Iron Muscle asks for nothing beyond the download.

Pull holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pull has 2.4K ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 32% of Iron Muscle's written reviews are positive against 64% of Pull's.

Iron Muscle ships an update every 24 months, Pull every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
