Git Pushups makes you earn your commits — by doing pushups! It works like this: 1. Download the app 2. Install our .git-hook 3. Go about your work day If you try to commit your work without having done pushups that day, your git hook will fail until you drop and give us 20 (or even 1 if you prefer). Go about your work day or keep doing reps to climb the daily leaderboard! Upgrade to PRO to change your daily goal, view your contribution graph, sync with Apple HealthKit and more!

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: LaunchBuddy at 107 against Git Pushups's 3. Git Pushups's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 85%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. LaunchBuddy sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Git Pushups sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Git Pushups holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LaunchBuddy has 107 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 85% of LaunchBuddy's written reviews are positive against 100% of Git Pushups's.
LaunchBuddy ships an update every 5 weeks, Git Pushups every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
