# MoodMe vs Lovus

MoodMe and Lovus both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 94% of Lovus's written reviews are positive against 45% of MoodMe's. MoodMe's advantage is ratings volume (441 vs 53) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MoodMe sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Lovus sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for MoodMe against 4.5 for Lovus. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MoodMe has 441 ratings behind it against 53, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 45% of MoodMe's written reviews are positive against 94% of Lovus's.

MoodMe ships an update every 3 weeks, Lovus every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
