# Now冥想 vs 熊猫睡眠

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 熊猫睡眠 at 94% against Now冥想's 69%. 熊猫睡眠 also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Now冥想's advantage is ratings volume (275 vs 54) and iOS requirement (13 vs 16). 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 熊猫睡眠 sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

熊猫睡眠 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Now冥想 has 275 ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 69% of Now冥想's written reviews are positive against 94% of 熊猫睡眠's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
