# Bearable vs Anthos

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Bearable at 6.3K against Anthos's 2. Bearable also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Anthos's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 81%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bearable sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and Anthos sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Anthos holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bearable has 6.3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of Bearable's written reviews are positive against 100% of Anthos's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
