# Counter vs Structured

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Structured at 166K against Counter's 62. Structured also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and chart position (#89 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Counter sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days and Structured sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Structured holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Structured has 166K ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Counter's written reviews are positive against 78% of Structured's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Counter ships an update monthly, Structured fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on August 20, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
