# Rhythm Hive vs Rhythm Go

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Rhythm Hive at 38K against Rhythm Go's 993. Rhythm Hive also leads on chart position (#10 vs unranked). Rhythm Go's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (71% vs 62%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rhythm Hive sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Rhythm Go sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rhythm Go holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rhythm Hive has 38K ratings behind it against 993, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 62% of Rhythm Hive's written reviews are positive against 71% of Rhythm Go's.

Rhythm Hive ships an update every 5 weeks, Rhythm Go every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
