# Workout Log vs Workout

The clearest difference is monetization model: Workout at free with in-app purchases against Workout Log's subscription. Workout also leads on review sentiment (90% vs 69%) and device support (4 vs 2). Workout Log's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (192 vs 28). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Workout Log sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Workout sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Workout Log holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Workout Log has 192 ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Workout Log's written reviews are positive against 90% of Workout's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Workout Log ships an update every 10 days, Workout weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
