READ OUR USER REVIEWS "After just one week of listening to this app, my “sweet tooth” was gone and I was able to get my stress eating under control. This app literally helped me turn a corner in what has been a life-long struggle." "This app has helped me control my appetite in a way that nothing else ever has. My ability to control my appetite is virtually effortless. Food is not the center of my world anymore. It’s very liberating." "I was really skeptical and I normally don’t do reviews unless an app was horrible but seriously…wow. I started using this app 2 weeks ago and while I know your suppose to shoot for no more than 2lbs a week….I’ve lost 12lbs. I do this one in conjunction with their exercise one as well as another weight loss hypnosis app & an intuitive eating hypnosis. and this one is my favorite. I throw it on mid-day when I start craving sweets. I have not had processed sugar for a week and when I did break down for a brownie it tasted chemically. I’m in love with hypnosis now." "At first I didn’t think it would work, but after listening to it just once I began to pick healthier choices and wasn’t hungry all the time. I now use this app every morning to start my day right with the right mind set and the wake up feature is like my own cup-o-coffee." "So glad I downloaded this app!! I never thought this would work but boy I was wrong!! I use it every night to help me fall asleep and I’ve lost 40lbs!!"

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Lose It! at 4.8 against Lose Weight Hypnosis's 4.3. Lose It! also leads on ratings volume (778K vs 1.6K) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Lose Weight Hypnosis's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (73% vs 54%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lose It! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lose It! has 778K ratings behind it against 1.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Lose It!'s written reviews are positive against 73% of Lose Weight Hypnosis's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lose It! ships an update weekly, Lose Weight Hypnosis every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
