# Nudget vs Subscription Manager

The clearest difference is rating: Subscription Manager at 5.0 against Nudget's 4.5. Nudget's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (378 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nudget sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Subscription Manager sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Subscription Manager holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nudget has 378 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Nudget ships an update weekly, Subscription Manager every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
