# YMCA On the Go vs YMCA360

The clearest difference is rating: YMCA On the Go at 4.3 against YMCA360's 2.6. YMCA On the Go also leads on ratings volume (5K vs 350). YMCA360's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

YMCA On the Go holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: YMCA On the Go has 5K ratings behind it against 350, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of YMCA On the Go's written reviews are positive against 15% of YMCA360's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

YMCA On the Go ships an update every 3 months, YMCA360 fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
