# My Impact vs ScreenZen

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ScreenZen at 93% against My Impact's 15%. ScreenZen also leads on rating (4.9 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (52K vs 128). My Impact's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ScreenZen sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. My Impact asks for nothing beyond the download.

ScreenZen holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ScreenZen has 52K ratings behind it against 128, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 15% of My Impact's written reviews are positive against 93% of ScreenZen's.

My Impact ships an update every 3 months, ScreenZen every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
