Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: LSAT Prep at 4.6 against Brief the Chief's 3.7. LSAT Prep also leads on ratings volume (285 vs 6). Brief the Chief's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LSAT Prep sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month. Brief the Chief asks for nothing beyond the download.
LSAT Prep holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LSAT Prep has 285 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of LSAT Prep's written reviews are positive against 33% of Brief the Chief's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
LSAT Prep ships an update every 4 months, Brief the Chief every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
