# PROVEN Wealth vs Matter

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PROVEN Wealth at none against Matter's 10. PROVEN Wealth also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.0). Matter's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 2) and chart position (#153 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Matter sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. PROVEN Wealth asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for PROVEN Wealth against 4.6 for Matter. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Matter has 1.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
