# PitPat vs RepChallenge

The clearest difference is ads: PitPat at none against RepChallenge's shown. RepChallenge's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PitPat sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and RepChallenge sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PitPat ships an update fortnightly, RepChallenge weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
