# LIT vs Strength Workouts

LIT and Strength Workouts both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Strength Workouts's written reviews are positive against 51% of LIT's. Strength Workouts also leads on ads (none vs shown). LIT's advantage is ratings volume (864 vs 10) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0).

Both are free to download. LIT sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Strength Workouts sells 2 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 — 4.5 for LIT against 4.4 for Strength Workouts. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LIT has 864 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 51% of LIT's written reviews are positive against 100% of Strength Workouts's.
