# memoryOS vs MyGrowth

The clearest difference is review sentiment: memoryOS at 80% against MyGrowth's 21%. memoryOS also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. memoryOS sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and MyGrowth sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
