# 28 Program vs Train With Ash

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Train With Ash at 100% against 28 Program's 59%. Train With Ash also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). 28 Program's advantage is ratings volume (72 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 28 Program sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per month and Train With Ash sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Train With Ash holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 28 Program has 72 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 59% of 28 Program's written reviews are positive against 100% of Train With Ash's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
