# Julian vs Miltech

The clearest difference is rating: Julian at 4.8 against Miltech's 4.1. Julian also leads on ratings volume (4.6K vs 36). Miltech's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Julian sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Miltech sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Julian holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Julian has 4.6K ratings behind it against 36, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 65% of Julian's written reviews are positive against 64% of Miltech's.

Julian ships an update every 2 months, Miltech every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
