# HiMommy vs Birth Plan Plus

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Birth Plan Plus at none against HiMommy's 10. Birth Plan Plus also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.6). HiMommy's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 28 months) and ratings volume (5.5K vs 40). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HiMommy sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Birth Plan Plus asks for nothing beyond the download.

HiMommy holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HiMommy has 5.5K ratings behind it against 40, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of HiMommy's written reviews are positive against 67% of Birth Plan Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

HiMommy ships an update every 5 days, Birth Plan Plus every 28 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
