# Intimacy Tracker vs HookBook

The clearest difference is monetization model: HookBook at free with in-app purchases against Intimacy Tracker's subscription. HookBook also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 63%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.4). Intimacy Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 328) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Intimacy Tracker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and HookBook sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HookBook holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Intimacy Tracker has 2.4K ratings behind it against 328, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 63% of Intimacy Tracker's written reviews are positive against 95% of HookBook's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
