# Gymverse vs Trybe

The clearest difference is update cadence: Gymverse at weekly against Trybe's every 6 weeks. Gymverse also leads on ratings volume (165K vs 723) and chart position (#38 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gymverse sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Trybe sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Gymverse against 4.8 for Trybe. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gymverse has 165K ratings behind it against 723, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 69% of Gymverse's written reviews are positive against 77% of Trybe's.

Gymverse ships an update weekly, Trybe every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
