# MindStrong Sport vs Arcletic

The clearest difference is ads: MindStrong Sport at none against Arcletic's shown. MindStrong Sport also leads on ratings volume (105 vs 1). Arcletic's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs monthly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MindStrong Sport sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Arcletic sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Arcletic holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MindStrong Sport has 105 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

MindStrong Sport ships an update monthly, Arcletic every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
