# Units vs Bridges

The clearest difference is rating: Units at 4.9 against Bridges's 4.4. Units also leads on ratings volume (261 vs 17) and device support (4 vs 2). Bridges's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 45%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Units sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Bridges sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Units holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Units has 261 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of Units's written reviews are positive against 75% of Bridges's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Units ships an update every 5 weeks, Bridges every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and August 5, 2026 respectively.
