Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Augment at every 3 days against Social Limits's fortnightly. Augment also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 77%) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). Social Limits's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Augment sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Social Limits sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Social Limits holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 34 and 60 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Augment's written reviews are positive against 77% of Social Limits's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Augment ships an update every 3 days, Social Limits fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
