# Daily Fast vs ThriveBaby+

The clearest difference is update cadence: ThriveBaby+ at every 4 days against Daily Fast's every 5 months. ThriveBaby+ also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). Daily Fast's advantage is ratings volume (3.5K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Daily Fast sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and ThriveBaby+ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ThriveBaby+ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Daily Fast has 3.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Daily Fast's written reviews are positive against 100% of ThriveBaby+'s.

Daily Fast ships an update every 5 months, ThriveBaby+ every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
