# Bend vs Wolf Coaching

The clearest difference is monetization model: Bend at free with in-app purchases against Wolf Coaching's subscription. Bend also leads on ratings volume (175K vs 2) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks). Wolf Coaching's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bend sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Wolf Coaching sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $229.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Wolf Coaching holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bend has 175K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Bend ships an update every 10 days, Wolf Coaching every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
