# 进度条 vs Random Reminder

The clearest difference is rating: 进度条 at 4.8 against Random Reminder's 4.6. Random Reminder's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 进度条 sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Random Reminder sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

进度条 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 34 and 18 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of 进度条's written reviews are positive against 83% of Random Reminder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. Both last shipped on October 14, 2026.
