Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gurudeva at none against Mindvalley's 10. Gurudeva also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Mindvalley's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 41 months) and ratings volume (7.1K vs 13). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mindvalley sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per 7 days. Gurudeva asks for nothing beyond the download.
Gurudeva holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mindvalley has 7.1K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Gurudeva ships an update every 41 months, Mindvalley weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
