Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Beli at none against ResX's shown. Beli also leads on ratings volume (18K vs 797) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 9 days). ResX's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 48%) and chart position (#8 vs #51). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beli sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $5.79 per month and ResX sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Beli against 4.8 for ResX. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beli has 18K ratings behind it against 797, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 48% of Beli's written reviews are positive against 73% of ResX's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Beli ships an update every 3 days, ResX every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
