# Ikes vs JustMe

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ikes at 93% against JustMe's 50%. Ikes also leads on ratings volume (31 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). JustMe's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ikes sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and JustMe sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

JustMe holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ikes has 31 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Ikes's written reviews are positive against 50% of JustMe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Ikes ships an update every 2 weeks, JustMe every 3 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
