# Chessvision.ai Chess Scanner vs PushUp Time

Chessvision.ai Chess Scanner also leads on review sentiment (69% vs 44%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17). PushUp Time's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (12K vs 1.1K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chessvision.ai Chess Scanner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and PushUp Time sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
