# Fix vs Brightspeed

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Fix at 100% against Brightspeed's 4%. Fix also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Brightspeed's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Fix holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brightspeed has 3.8K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Fix's written reviews are positive against 4% of Brightspeed's.

Fix ships an update every 5 months, Brightspeed every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
