Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Bestyou Transform at freemium against Strive's subscription. Bestyou Transform also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Strive's advantage is ratings volume (3.1K vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.2). 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. Strive sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Bestyou Transform sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Bestyou Transform holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Strive has 3.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Strive ships an update every 8 days, Bestyou Transform weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
