# Element X vs Moob

The clearest difference is rating: Moob at 4.3 against Element X's 3.4. Moob also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 39%). Element X's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ratings volume (163 vs 10). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Moob sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Element X asks for nothing beyond the download.

Moob holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Element X has 163 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of Element X's written reviews are positive against 80% of Moob's.

Element X ships an update fortnightly, Moob weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
