Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Hyperice holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hyperice has 1.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of Hyperice's written reviews are positive against 63% of Remote for Bodyfriend's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hyperice ships an update every 3 weeks, Remote for Bodyfriend every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
