# NFL vs StatMuse

The clearest difference is rating: NFL at 4.5 against StatMuse's 4.0. NFL also leads on ratings volume (412K vs 74) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). StatMuse's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (31% vs 21%). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NFL sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. StatMuse asks for nothing beyond the download.

NFL holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NFL has 412K ratings behind it against 74, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of NFL's written reviews are positive against 31% of StatMuse's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

NFL ships an update weekly, StatMuse monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
