# Ganbaru Method vs BMTV

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BMTV at 100% against Ganbaru Method's 59%. BMTV also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Ganbaru Method's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (772 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ganbaru Method sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per 3 months and BMTV sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BMTV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
