# Model Now vs Genuin

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Genuin at 100% against Model Now's 41%. Genuin also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Model Now's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Model Now sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per month. Genuin asks for nothing beyond the download.

Model Now holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Model Now has 2.9K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Model Now's written reviews are positive against 100% of Genuin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Model Now ships an update monthly, Genuin fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 18, 2026 respectively.
