# Lose It! vs Weight Log

The clearest difference is ads: Weight Log at none against Lose It!'s shown. Weight Log also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Lose It!'s advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (783K vs 60). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lose It! sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year and Weight Log sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Lose It! against 4.8 for Weight Log. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lose It! has 783K ratings behind it against 60, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 54% of Lose It!'s written reviews are positive against 43% of Weight Log's.

Lose It! ships an update every 5 days, Weight Log every 10 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
