Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MySub at 4.0 against Recur's 3.5. Recur's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 2) and review sentiment (60% vs 50%). 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. Recur sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and MySub sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
MySub holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Recur has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Recur's written reviews are positive against 50% of MySub's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Recur ships an update every 2 weeks, MySub fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on August 18, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
