# Now冥想 vs 戒者

The clearest difference is rating: Now冥想 at 4.5 against 戒者's 4.0. Now冥想 also leads on ratings volume (277 vs 15). 戒者's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 68%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Now冥想 sells 35 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per month and 戒者 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Now冥想 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Now冥想 has 277 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Now冥想's written reviews are positive against 88% of 戒者's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Now冥想 ships an update every 3 weeks, 戒者 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
