# YouMind vs New Stimuli

YouMind and New Stimuli both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of New Stimuli's written reviews are positive against 48% of YouMind's. YouMind's advantage is ratings volume (111 vs 6). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. YouMind sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and New Stimuli sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for YouMind against 4.3 for New Stimuli. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: YouMind has 111 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 48% of YouMind's written reviews are positive against 100% of New Stimuli's.
