# MySub vs Subscription Manager

The clearest difference is rating: Subscription Manager at 4.6 against MySub's 4.0. Subscription Manager also leads on ratings volume (97 vs 2) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). MySub's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MySub sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Subscription Manager sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Subscription Manager holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subscription Manager has 97 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of MySub's written reviews are positive against 68% of Subscription Manager's.

MySub ships an update fortnightly, Subscription Manager weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
