# Boostcamp vs JustGains

Boostcamp and JustGains both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of JustGains's written reviews are positive against 60% of Boostcamp's. JustGains also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Boostcamp's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 26) and chart position (#150 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Boostcamp sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and JustGains sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Boostcamp against 4.8 for JustGains. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Boostcamp has 11K ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of Boostcamp's written reviews are positive against 100% of JustGains's.

Boostcamp ships an update fortnightly, JustGains every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
