# Unplug'd vs Hello History

The clearest difference is rating: Hello History at 4.6 against Unplug'd's 4.1. Hello History also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (938 vs 10). Unplug'd's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hello History sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Unplug'd asks for nothing beyond the download.

Hello History holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hello History has 938 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Unplug'd's written reviews are positive against 60% of Hello History's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Unplug'd ships an update every 12 months, Hello History every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
