Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: B2 at 5.0 against Lunes's 3.0. B2 also leads on ratings volume (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.6). Lunes's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 24 months) and review sentiment (63% vs 40%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
B2 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of B2's written reviews are positive against 63% of Lunes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
B2 ships an update every 24 months, Lunes every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 7, 2026 respectively.
