# Equinox+ vs Therabody

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Therabody at none against Equinox+'s 1. Equinox+'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (45K vs 7.8K). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Equinox+ sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $39.99 per month. Therabody asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Equinox+ against 4.7 for Therabody. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Equinox+ has 45K ratings behind it against 7.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 28% of Equinox+'s written reviews are positive against 35% of Therabody's.

Equinox+ ships an update fortnightly, Therabody every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
