# ATAC vs Launchpad Fast

The clearest difference is monetization model: Launchpad Fast at freemium against ATAC's subscription. Launchpad Fast also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). ATAC's advantage is ratings volume (174 vs 13) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ATAC sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Launchpad Fast sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Launchpad Fast holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ATAC has 174 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of ATAC's written reviews are positive against 100% of Launchpad Fast's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
