Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CrunchTime Active Rewards at 4.1 against dotFIT's 1.7. CrunchTime Active Rewards also leads on ratings volume (269 vs 56). dotFIT's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CrunchTime Active Rewards holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 1.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 56 and 269 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 5% of dotFIT's written reviews are positive against 0% of CrunchTime Active Rewards's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

dotFIT ships an update every 9 days, CrunchTime Active Rewards monthly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
