# Watodo vs RESPIRE

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Watodo at 53 against RESPIRE's 1. Watodo also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18.6). RESPIRE's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Watodo sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and RESPIRE sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RESPIRE holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Watodo has 53 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Watodo ships an update fortnightly, RESPIRE every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
