# Authentic Only vs RELATIONSHIP ESSENTIALS

The clearest difference is rating: Authentic Only at 5.0 against RELATIONSHIP ESSENTIALS's 4.0. Authentic Only also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (20 vs 4). RELATIONSHIP ESSENTIALS's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 12 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RELATIONSHIP ESSENTIALS sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $14.99 per month. Authentic Only asks for nothing beyond the download.

Authentic Only holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Authentic Only has 20 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Authentic Only ships an update every 12 months, RELATIONSHIP ESSENTIALS fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
