# Pilgrims vs Implexion

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Implexion at 100% against Pilgrims's 64%. Implexion also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). Pilgrims's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (480 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pilgrims sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Implexion sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Implexion holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pilgrims has 480 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of Pilgrims's written reviews are positive against 100% of Implexion's.

Pilgrims ships an update every 2 months, Implexion weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
