# forScore vs n

The clearest difference is price: n at $12.99 against forScore's $24.99. n also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and review sentiment (84% vs 50%). forScore's advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 93) and chart position (#11 vs unranked). On rating, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

forScore costs $24.99 and n $12.99 up front. forScore sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per year. n asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for forScore against 4.8 for n. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: forScore has 43K ratings behind it against 93, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 50% of forScore's written reviews are positive against 84% of n's.

forScore ships an update every 9 days, n every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
