Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Binaural Beats at 4.6 against NeuroHack's 4.0. Binaural Beats also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (124 vs 4). NeuroHack's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 19) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Binaural Beats sells 19 one-off in-app purchases. NeuroHack asks for nothing beyond the download.
Binaural Beats holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Binaural Beats has 124 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Binaural Beats's written reviews are positive against 100% of NeuroHack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Binaural Beats ships an update every 2 months, NeuroHack every 10 months. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
