Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: GoodShape at 5.0 against Surgery App's 1.0. GoodShape also leads on ratings volume (3 vs 1). Surgery App's advantage is review sentiment (23% vs 14%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
GoodShape holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Surgery App's written reviews are positive against 14% of GoodShape's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Surgery App ships an update every 3 weeks, GoodShape every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 11, 2026 and August 12, 2026 respectively.
